This is a deliberately polemical intervention into the structure/agency debate in the social sciences. It argues that central concepts in this debate – such as ‘society’ and the ‘individual’ – have been widely misconceived, and that progress in the social sciences will only occur if the real nature of the social world is respected. -- .
