Yet as we approach the end of the millenium, we find the concept under seige: constantly being challenged, rejected or refined. In " Critique of Modernity, Alain Touraine, one of our leading social thinkers, offers an outstanding analysis and reinterpretation of the modern for the twenty-first century.
