This volume explores the evolution of critical engagement before and after Burawoy’s visit to South Africa in the 1990s and offers a Southern critique of his model of public sociology. Involving four generations of researchers from the Global South, the authors provide a multifaceted exploration of the formation of new knowledge through research practices of co-production. Tracing the historical development of ‘critical engagement’ from a Global South perspective, the book deftly weaves a bridge between the debates on public sociology and decolonial frameworks.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmContributor: Andries Bezuidenhout (Edited by), Sonwabile Mnwana (Edited by), Karl von Holdt (Edited by)Genre: Society & CultureBook Series: Public SociologyTopic: Social SciencesAuthor: Sonwabile MnwanaRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
