Political theory is approached as species of political and social science but more broadly as a form of interpretive or metapractical inquiry. Much of the emphasis is on the relationship between philosophy and social science and on the dilemmas that attend the cognitive and practical relationship between social science and its subject matter. This work is devoted to a critical analytical examination of the history, character, and conduct of contemporary academic political theory and to a reconsideration of significant elements of this field of inquiry from the perspective of the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein.
