Rethinking Sociology series

This series is a forum for innovative scholarly writing from across all substantive fields of sociology. The series aims to enrich the study of sociology by promoting a cutting-edge approach to sociological thought and analysis. Academic scrutiny and challenge is an essential component in the development of sociology as a field of study, and the act of re-thinking and re-examining principles and precepts that may have been long-held is imperative. 

Rethinking Sociology showcases authored books that address the field from a new angle, expose the weaknesses of existing concepts and arguments, or 're-frame' the topic in some way. This might be through the introduction of radical ideas, through the integration of perspectives from other fields or even disciplines, through challenging existing paradigms, or simply through a level of analysis that elevates or sharpens our understanding of a subject.
