Abstract

In this essay we have tried to introduce a new school of social theory whichhas been hitherto deeply neglected by disciplinary academic discourses onsocial theory and philosophy. The main argument proposed in this article isthat contemporary historiographical narratives are profoundly influenced bymodernist epistemology as well as ontology. In order to overcome theseinbuilt biases we need to deconstruct the edifice of discursive rationality asinstitutionalized within disciplinary imaginative frame of analysis. There areat least three main schools which have not been systematically presentedwithin the context of global sociology, i.e. existential school of social theory;perennial school of social theory and primordial school of social theory. Inthis paper we have tried to unlock the issues which are at work in thesystemic underrepresentation of the last school in the body of academicsocial theory
