Global Knowledge Production in the Social Sciences: Made in Circulation: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Global Knowledge Production in the Social Sciences: Made in Circulation" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

An innovative contribution to debates on the internationalization and globalization of the social sciences, this book pays particular attention to their theoretical and epistemological reconfiguration in the light of postcolonial critiques and critiques of Eurocentrism. Bringing together theoretical contributions and empirical case studies from around the world, including India, the Americas, South Africa, Australia and Europe, it engages in debates concerning public sociology and explores South-South research collaborations specific to the social sciences. Contributions transcend established critiques of Eurocentrism to make space for the idea of global social sciences and truly transnational research. Thematically arranged and both international and interdisciplinary in scope, this volume reflects the different theoretical and thematic backgrounds of the contributing authors, who enter into dialogue and debate with one another in the development of a more inclusive, more representative and more theoretically relevant stage for the social sciences. A rigorous critique of the contemporary state of the social sciences as well as an attempt to find another way of doing transnational sociology, Global Knowledge Production in the Social Sciences will appeal to scholars of sociology, political science and social theory with interests in the production of social scientific knowledge, postcolonialism and transnationalism in research.

GLOBAL KNOWLEDGE PRODUCTION IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCES

This book widens the theoretical and methodological perspective of studies on the global circulation of knowledge, by offering interesting cases and discussing relevant concepts. A truly international contribution to rethinking the entangled processes at work in the production of social sciences in local, national and transnational spaces.

Fernanda Beigel, CONICET-Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, Argentina

After the wave of criticism of the Eurocentric and colonial character of hegemonic social sciences during the 1990s and in the early 2000s, more recent studies have tried to offer institutional and epistemic solutions to adequately represent the global South in the social sciences. This volume systematically discusses some of these experiences, presenting new critical responses to the challenge of overcoming parochialism and Eurocentrism. Bringing together a team of brilliant and internationally renowned authors, this book represents an indispensable contribution for those interested in following contemporary reinvention of social sciences.

Global Connections

Series Editor: Robert Holton, Trinity College, Dublin

Global Connections builds on the multi-dimensional and continuously expanding interest in Globalization. The main objective of the series is to focus on connectedness and provide readable case studies across a broad range of areas such as social and cultural life, economic, political and technological activities.

The series aims to move beyond abstract generalities and stereotypes: Global is considered in the broadest sense of the word, embracing connections between different nations, regions and localities, including activities that are trans-national, and trans-local in scope; Connections refers to movements of people, ideas, resources, and all forms of communication as well as the opportunities and constraints faced in making, engaging with, and sometimes resisting globalization.

The series is interdisciplinary in focus and publishes monographs and collections of essays by new and established scholars. It fills a niche in the market for books that make the study of globalization more concrete and accessible.
