Volume 17 of "Political Power and Social Theory" showcases
scholarship by historical, political, and economic sociologists
grouped around three broad subjects with both contemporary and
historical relevance. The first is the relationship between race,
class, and urban politics, and specifically, how racial and class
identities interact with each other to produce social and political
power dynamics in 20th century American cities. The second subject,
the interaction of citizens, states, and social movements in both
colonial and transnational context, turns away from the
sub-national level of the city and examines social and political
dynamics at the level of nations and even empires, although racial
identities, social movements, and citizenship concerns remain
relevant in several of these papers as well. Both U.S. and European
cases are examined. The final topic of inquiry is the social
origins of corporate irresponsibility, a problem that is explored
through the lens of organizational theory, state-society relations,
and the history of labor-corporate relations. Overall, the volume
aims to open new historical, methodological, and theoretical lines
of inquiry for sociologists, organization theorists, political
scientists, historians, and others who seek to understand some of
the most pressing inequalities and injustices of our times.
