Rethinking Race and Ethnicity in Research Methods is the long overdue sequel to Race and Ethnicity in Research Methods edited by John H. Stanfield, II and Rutledge M. Dennis (1993, Sage). is my revisit to the introductory piece, "Epistemological Considerations," in the 1993 book.

This edited volume is then divided into three sections. As in the first book, authors offer intellectual histories and critical assessments of methods they use in racial and ethnic studies in sociology and in other sociologically oriented fields. Articles in , Qualitative and Quantitative Methods, are written by researchers who offer assessments of novel nontriangulated methods seldom addressed comprehensively in racial and ethnic sociological research. The areas covered are: restorative justice (John H. Stanfield, II), discourse analysis (Teun A. van Dijk), qualitative interviewing (Eileen O'Brien), archival methods (Mary Jo Deegan), emancipation practices (Elizabeth Hordge-Freeman, Sarah Mayorga, Eduardo Bonilla-Silva), and experimental designs (Henry A. Walker).

In the chapters in , Mixed Methods, authors present innovative approaches to triangulating qualitative methods such as using historically oriented archival, secondary historical documents, observational techniques, and interviews (Stephen Small), triangulating qualitative and quantitative historical methods (Yvonne Walker), triangulating quantitative methods (Quincy Thomas Stewart and Abigail A. Sewell), case studies, focus groups, and long interviews (Dawn Brotherton), and psychohistorical textual analysis of autobiographies, archival and secondary historical documents analysis, and oral histories (John H. Stanfield, II).

, Comparative and Cross-National Studies, includes two examples of innovations in cross-national methodologies: ethnography (L. Janelle Dance and Johannes Lunneblad) and my piece; Weberian ideal-type methodology in comparative historical sociological research.

As is the case for most writing projects, especially of this collaborative genre, there are many people to thank. First, I thank my wonderful colleagues who agreed to contribute to this volume. They did not have to take the time out of their hectic schedules but honored me and the academy by doing so and did so unselfishly. I am proud to say they represent a rich mixture of baby-boomer and Gen-X scholars who have established their names in the social sciences or are well on their way in doing so. The range of their provocative perspectives assures the long-lasting value of this edited volume as a source of needed discussion and innovation in the underresearched area of race and ethnicity in research methods as matters of intellectual histories, epistemologies, ethics, politics, theories, and technical relevance and creativity. Thank you all so very much.

To really show my chronological age as I come to my sixtieth year on July 9, 2011, I am also grateful that three of the contributors are former students of mine: Dawn Brotherton and Yvonne Walker, Fielding Graduate University Human and Organization Studies doctoral students, and Eileen O'Brien, my extraordinary College of William and Mary undergraduate student who went on to receive her doctoral studies mentorship under Joe Feagin then at the University of Florida. It is always an immeasurable honor when one's former students agree to do intellectual work with you as colleagues and friends.

I thank my publisher Mitch Allen, who, as a Sage Publications editor, recognized the potential significance of the bundle of papers I gave to him in the aftermath of the 1984 American Sociological Association Meeting. The paper drafts of those became Race and Ethnicity in Research Methods. Rethinking Race and Ethnicity in Research Methods comes to published light due to Mitch's continued encouragement to me over the years to get the next cows born. I wish to also thank Carole Bernard, our copy editor, for her superb work.
