Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal explores the intersection of postcolonial theory and sociological thought, examining how colonial legacies have shaped sociological concepts, methodologies, and canonical thinkers. Articles investigate the potential for a 'postcolonial sociology' by re-reading established theories and applying postcolonial concepts to understand global inequalities, race relations, and the production of knowledge.
