In this groundbreaking book, Aldon D. Morris's ambition is truly monumental: to help rewrite the history of sociology and to acknowledge the primacy of W. E. B. Du Bois's work in the founding of the ...discipline. Calling into question the prevailing narrative of how sociology developed, Morris, a major scholar of social movements, probes the way in which the history of the discipline has traditionally given credit to Robert E. Park at the University of Chicago, who worked with the conservative black leader Booker T. Washington to render Du Bois invisible. Morris uncovers the seminal theoretical work of Du Bois in developing a "scientific" sociology through a variety of methodologies and examines how the leading scholars of the day disparaged and ignored Du Bois's work.The Scholar Deniedis based on extensive, rigorous primary source research; the book is the result of a decade of research, writing, and revision. In exposing the economic and political factors that marginalized the contributions of Du Bois and enabled Park and his colleagues to be recognized as the "fathers" of the discipline, Morris delivers a wholly new narrative of American intellectual and social history that places one of America's key intellectuals, W. E. B. Du Bois, at its center.The Scholar Deniedis a must-read for anyone interested in American history, racial inequality, and the academy. In challenging our understanding of the past, the book promises to engender debate and discussion.
In this presidential address, I advance a theoretical sketch on racialized emotions—the emotions specific to racialized societies. These emotions are central to the racial edifice of societies, thus, ...analysts and policymakers should understand their collective nature, be aware of how they function, and appreciate the existence of variability among emoting racial subjects. Clarity on these matters is key for developing an effective affective politics to challenge any racial order. After the sketch, I offer potential strategies to retool our racial emotive order as well as our racial selves. I end my address urging White sociologists to acknowledge the significance of racism in sociology and the emotions it engenders and to work to advance new personal and organizational anti-racist practices.
Pierre Bourdieu (1930--2002) had an enormous influence on social and
cultural thought in the second half of the 20th century, leaving a mark on fields as
diverse as sociology, anthropology, critical ...theory, education, literary criticism,
art history, and media studies. From his childhood in a rural French village, to his
fieldwork in Algeria, to his ascension to the Chair of Sociology at the Collège de
France, Bourdieu's life followed a trajectory both complex and contradictory. In
this original and eloquent study, Deborah Reed-Danahay offers fresh insights on
Bourdieu's work by drawing on the perspectives of ethnography and autobiography.
Using Bourdieu's own reflections upon his life and career and considering the
totality of his research and writing, this book locates Bourdieu within his French
milieu and within the current state of discussion of Europe and its colonial legacy.
Locating Bourdieu revisits major themes and concepts such as structure and practice,
taste and distinction, habitus, social field, symbolic capital, and symbolic
violence, adding new perspectives and discovering implications of Bourdieu's work
for understanding emotion, social space, and personal narrative. The result is a
work of impressive scholarship and intellectual creativity that will appeal to
scholars, students, and non-specialists alike. New Anthropologies

Como se habrá advertido, desde que elaboró su tesis de licenciatura en derecho, Julio Labastida buscó comprender las relaciones entre la vida social y el devenir institucional, y desde sus estudios ...doctorales, seguir los análisis de la realidad latinoamericana tuvo para él un interés mayor. De la conjunción de esos dos macrotemas, en todas las etapas de su trayectoria académica se derivaron perspectivas de estudio del México de su tiempo que articulaban la reflexión crítica sobre las teorías sociopolíticas con la ponderación de reconstrucciones de la historia reciente y la observación cualitativa y cuantitativa de fenómenos focales.
La trajectoire du sociologue Patrice Pinell donne à voir l’histoire d’un courant de sociologie critique. Formé à la médecine puis à la biochimie dans les années 1960, Patrice Pinell entre à ...l’Institut national de la santé et de la recherche médicale (Inserm) au début des années 1970. Sa conversion à la sociologie est liée à ses engagements politiques et syndicaux et à des rencontres, en particulier avec trois sociologues : Jacques Maître, venu de la sociologie des religions (il fut l’un des membres fondateurs du Groupe de sociologie des religions) à celle de la santé, dans une approche marquée par la psychanalyse, puis Pierre Bourdieu, à l’École pratique des hautes études, et enfin Claudine Herzlich, qui a particulièrement œuvré à l’introduction des sciences sociales au sein de l’Inserm au début des années 1980. Patrice Pinell intègre en 1976 une unité de recherches psychanalytiques et sociologiques en santé publique, l’Unité 158, fondée par Ginette Raimbault, médecin et psychanalyste. Il dirigera cette unité de 1987 à sa fermeture en 1999. Contre un usage de la sociologie et de l’histoire comme disciplines annexes de l’épidémiologie et de la santé publique, il fait de la santé et de la médecine des objets de sociologie générale en développant une analyse socio-historique du champ médical.Coordinatrices du dossier – Avant d’être sociologue, tu étais médecin.
