Volume 15 offers a series of critical articles and commentaries by
some of the leading historically-oriented social scientists writing
in academia today. Collectively, the articles examine issues
ranging from the relations between class, power and history, to the
role of states and culture in mediating those dynamics. Special
attention is paid to race, gender, citizenship and civil society in
the formation of such structures and processes. The countries or
regions under study include the United States, Brazil, Chile,
China, Mexico, Samoa and Southwest Africa.In keeping with the
journal's commitment to inter-disciplinary, as well as historical
inquiry, our nine contributors come from a variety of disciplines
(sociology, political science, anthropology and history), all
drawing on debates and themes that cut across the social sciences.
The significance of the inter-disciplinary perspective is seen not
only in the range of cases, literatures and methodologies brought
to bear on the key issues under study; it also forms the
substantive core of several contributions that call for a
rethinking of conventional disciplinary boundaries and
methodological frames.
