Abstract
What a book you wrote! Thank you very much.
I already cited your book in a paper. Because it is very useful to me.
Yes, you are right: social sciences are about praising modernity; praising western empire. Avoiding discussions about capitalism and any other discussion about life, real lives and the ways out of war and poverty. It is about avoiding science and scientific practices on social subjects.
Social sciences are about avoiding criticism and accumulating knowledge using moralist false (unilateral) thinking. About modern people (like “us”, who mix leadership and who support it – no class) being together and safe from outside, with the help of the state.
