This edited volume contains contributions from scholars from all over the world that outline their version of relational sociology, situate it within the relational landscape and indicate how it might contribute to the development of a relational paradigm. This book aims to open a variety of perspectives on relational sociology and to bring them into a fruitful, frictional dialogue. These chapters draw on the canonical authors of the relational turn, present relational perspectives in the neighbouring disciplines, integrate divergent approaches, solve important conceptual problems, articulate the relations between the core concepts of relational sociology, and apply the relational perspective to subfields of sociology. The first part of the book considers structuralism, post-structuralism and the new institutionalism. The second part is concerned with the “hard core” of relational sociology and takes the work of Pierre Bourdieu and Harrison White in another direction. The third part is the most innovative one and contains texts that add another turn to the relational turn. The final part lifts the veil on non-human relations and brings the Anthopocene to the fore.
