This volume introduces major critical theorists—from Aglietta to Spivak—through a curated set of chapters specifically tailored to Library & Information Science (LIS). It illustrates how critical perspectives such as discourse analysis, power/knowledge structures, cultural production, spatial dialectics, and decolonial/feminist critique apply to LIS research and practice. Each chapter combines:
An overview of a theorist’s main ideas and theoretical stance
Critical commentary linking theory to LIS questions and challenges
