Who-or what-really shapes history?
For centuries, modern thought has described the world as a system-structures, laws, and impersonal forces organizing social life. But what if this perspective misses the most decisive element?
Subjectology: Sociology of Social Subjects offers a bold and original answer: history is not driven by systems alone, but by subjects.
Individuals, societies, nations, and civilizations are not passive components of a structure. They are subjects that act, decide, remember, and transform reality.
From Thomas Hobbes to contemporary debates on artificial intelligence, Agust�n Gal�n Mach�o develops a new framework for understanding how social subjects emerge, acquire identity, and exercise agency across time.
Bridging classical political theory and modern sociology, this book revisits key thinkers-from Niccol� Machiavelli and Jean-Jacques Rousseau to Max Weber, Michel Foucault, and J�rgen Habermas-to propose a general theory of the subject in social and political life.
At a time when algorithms increasingly mediate knowledge, perception, and decision-making, the question becomes urgent:
Who is acting now? Humans, systems, or something in between?
Subjectology confronts this question head-on. It challenges structural determinism, redefines agency, and provides a new lens through which to understand power, identity, and collective action in the 21st century.
A groundbreaking work at the intersection of sociology, political theory, and the philosophy of artificial intelligence-essential reading for anyone seeking to understand who truly acts in history.
