إبستيمولوجيا الجائحة في "معرفة المعرفة" الجسد و الثقافة و المجتمع

Abstract EN

The study aims at developing a sociological inquiry guided by reflexive sociology to articulate the covid-19 pandemic, as social phenomena within its complex, adaptive, and societal contexts.

the pandemic which has thrown us into a living laboratory requires a different mode of thinking : one that overcomes the epistemological barriers of prior world vision and transcending the dictates of the scientific logic of conventional paradigms.

the current historical transformation constitutes a rupture with the core way of paradigm thinking.

the virus is a portal, a gateway between one world and the next.

as a portal, it forces a re–imagination of the social.

the study strives for internal consistency and logical structuring to discuss in sequence : 1) the pandemic and the conventional sociological imagination ; 2) systems modality for bridging the gaps in sociological analysis; 3) building alternative theoretical architecture of pandemic epistemology; and 4) utilizing practice theory of sociology for analysis and interpretation of pandemic epistemology.
