This volume explores the challenges posed to sociological theory
and social science research by a growing need to foreground
perspectives stemming from, and accounting for, subaltern groups,
marginal categories, the Global South, and other politically
peripheral regions. De-Centering Global Sociology radically
questions some of the most enduring assumptions within sociological
thought and social science research and illustrates the impacts of
de-centering critical concepts in public policy and education. It
proposes new places to build social theory, beyond Europe and the
United States, offering debates on the present and future of the
social sciences. This peripheral turn also has impacts on the
development of pedagogical practices, curricula, and educational
research that are more inclusive, and in a position to promote
global citizenship. This book will be a valuable resource for
researchers and academics with an interest in global social theory,
decolonial and postcolonial studies, political theory, feminism,
critical race theory, economic sociology, inequality studies, urban
sociology, and the sociology of work, religion, and education. It
will be of particular interest to those with a focus on
citizenship, social policy, conviviality, social integration and
solidarity, and new perspectives on multicultural education.
