From the Publisher
“I came away from Liberation Sociology with a sense of renewed hope for the field….Until Liberation Sociology, I found well-written, cogently presented, and well-researched arguments suitable for the next generation of sociologists. This volume addresses this lack. For every undergraduate student considering entering sociology, for every graduate student wondering about his or her choice, as well as for current sociologists who wonder whether they have lost their way, Liberation Sociology might prove to be a breath of fresh air.”“For anyone interested in (or searching for) new pathways in sociology, Feagin and Vera’s Liberation Sociology is must reading.”
“In this unique book, Joe R. Feagin and Hernan Vera show that sociology can make a vital contribution to human freedom and well-being. Drawing on many practical contributions of sociological researchers and activists, they offer an inspiring vision of the field and its possibilities. This crucial text will be adopted in courses everywhere.”
“Truly a magnificent, original, exciting, and powerful consciousness-raising book!”
