Description

Knowledge for Whom?: Public Sociology in the Making offers a deep look into the relationship between sociology and the public. As a follow-up to Intellectuals and Their Publics, this volume shifts the focus from the general activity of intellectuals to the specific ways sociologists engage with and serve various communities. This ground-breaking work examines the professional journey of the public sociologist. It explores the paths individuals take to become prominent intellectuals and studies the complex history of professional associations and institutions. By analyzing how sociology functions outside of purely academic settings, this book provides essential insights for students, researchers, and professionals interested in the sociology of knowledge. Readers will find a detailed analysis of how sociological expertise reaches the public sphere and the institutional structures that support or shape these interactions. This book is a necessary resource for those studying the practical application of social science in contemporary society.
