Más información sobre el libro

The book presents a groundbreaking analysis of modern French sociology, linking its evolution to the context of the French empire post-World War II. Steinmetz argues that colonial research was fundamental to sociology's resurgence, as sociologists collaborated with colonial governments to address pressing social issues. He examines the contributions of key figures like Aron, Berque, Balandier, and Bourdieu, highlighting how their work was influenced by colonial dynamics. The author employs a novel methodological approach, integrating contextual analysis with close readings of sociological texts.
