For several years I tried to separate my blog posts into “academic philosophy” and “advocacy and social criticism”. This proved to be a difficult distinction to maintain, so in 2010 I included all posts in the Understanding Society blog. The posts you find here are the items that were published in Changing Society between 2007 and 2010.
The Changing Society blog 2007-2010

Daniel Little is a philosopher of social science with an extensive interest in Asia. He has written books on social explanation, Marx, late Imperial China, the philosophy of history, the Holocaust, and the ethics of economic development. Little has come to see that understanding social processes is in many ways more difficult than understanding the natural world. Social phenomena are heterogeneous, plastic, and contingent, and understanding the social world requires a plurality of methods and theories. Little is currently interested in understanding some of the organizational causes of large technology failures. View all posts by Daniel Little
