WiSe 17/18: To open the Sociological Theory: Geopolitics of Knowledge and the Non-canonical Classical Sociology
Eloisa Martín
Kommentar
Current debates on the relevance and the epistemological limits of the denominated classical sociological theory understand it as an historical result of the geopolitics of knowledge. The course looks to expand the canon and criticise the universalistic standpoints, including non-Western, non-male, and non-white social thinkers, as a heuristic exercise to open (and enhance) sociology. In the first part of this course, it will be developed a critical discussion on the influence of the European canon in the definition of Sociology as a disciplinary field, its object and methods. In its second part, it will be discussed some of the main approaches produced by authors with different intellectual trajectories, to open a path to rethink the bases and scope of the sociological theoretical effort.
