Reimagines how race, ethnicity, imperialism, and colonialism can be central to social science researchand methodsThere is a growing consensus that the discipline of sociology and the social sciences broadly need to engage more thoroughly with the legacy and the present day of colonialism, Indigenous/settler colonialism, imperialism, and racial capitalism in the United States and globally. In Disciplinary Futures, a cross-section of scholars comes together to engage sociology and the social sciences by way of these paradigms, particularly from the influence of disciplines of American, Ethnic, and Indigenous Studies.With original essays from scholars such as Yến Lê Espiritu, Miliann Kang, Monisha Das Gupta, Salvador Vidal-Ortiz, Laura E. Enriquez, Kevin Escudero, and Gilda L. Ochoa, Disciplinary Futures offers concrete pathways for how the social sciences can expand from the limiting frameworks they traditionally use to study race, racism, and White supremacy —namely, the Black-White binary, the privileging of the nation-state, the fixation on the US mainland, the underappreciation of post- and settler-colonial studies, liberal assumptions, and the limited conception of what constitutes data. Secondarily, the book and its contributors reveal that sociology has useful questions, methodologies, and approaches to offer scholars of American, Ethnic, and Indigenous Studies. Disciplinary Futures is an important work that renders these disciplines more intellectually expansive and thus better able to tackle urgent issues of race, White supremacy, and injustice
