Introduction : entangling postcoloniality and sociological thought / Julian Go -- The colonial unconscious of classical sociology / Steven Seidman -- 'From the standpoint of Germanism' : a postcolonial critique of Weber's theory of race and ethnicity / Manuela Boatca -- Common skies and divided horizons? : sociology, race, and postcolonial studies / Zine Magubane -- Postcolonial critique : the necessity of sociology / Gregor McLennan -- 'Provincializing' sociology : the case of a premature postcolonial sociologist / Manu Goswami -- Toward a postcolonial sociology in the work of Octavio Paz / Oliver Kozlarek -- toward a postcolonial sociology : the view from Latin America / José H. Bortoluci, Robert S. Jansen -- The violences of knowledge : Edward Said, sociology, and post-Orientalist reflexivity / Jeffrey Guhin, Jonathan Wyrtzen -- Hybrid habitus : toward a post-colonial theory of practice / Claire Laurier Decoteau -- The possibilities of, and for, global sociology : a postcolonial perspective / Gurminder K. Bhambra.

Postcolonial theory has enjoyed wide influence in the humanities but for social science, and in particular sociology, its implications remain elusive. This special volume brings together leading sociologists to explore the concept of "postcolonial sociology," with brand new postcolonial readings of canonical thinkers like Karl Marx, Max Weber, Emile Durkheim and Robert Park. Chapters consider whether or not postcolonial theory is compatible with sociology; explore the relationship between knowledge and colonial power; and offer critical perspectives on the sociology of race and the implications of postcolonial theory for global sociology. They also unravel the complex entanglements of sociology, area studies, and postcolonial studies; give creative deployments of postcolonial concepts such as hybridity; and critical excavations of sociological thought in India and Mexico. In sodoing this volume is among the first to craft newsociologiesinformed by postcolonial criticism.
