- The book uses archival research of journal articles published in classical issues of the American Journal of Sociology, and the British Journal of Sociology, while also engaging with over 380 sources to show how sociology developed within a specific historical period of colonialism. Decolonizing Sociology therefore marks a radical intervention in the discipline in the way that it connects the discipline’s past to its contemporary practice, and provides generative theoretical and empirical discussions surrounding the nature of sociological inquiry.
