The General Theory of Social Relativity is a theoretical monograph that presents a radically innovative framework for thinking about social processes. In the early twentieth century, theories of quantum physics and general relativity exposed the limits of Newton's classical, mechanical, approach to explaining the forces at work in the physical world. But the social sciences, including critical aesthetics rooted in nineteenth century political theory, remain caught in a mechanistic paradigm. The formulation of the General Theory offers a non-mechanistic approach to the understanding workings of the social world and the affective forces at work in non-linear politics and aesthetics.
