BOOK
Citizen scholar : public engagement for social scientists
2025
Overview
\"Scholars face imperatives - both intrinsic and institutional - to make their work engaging and influential and to connect with communities beyond their disciplines and institutions. \"We don't give up our citizenship when we become scholars - professional intellectuals - and we don't give up our scholarly perspective when we fulfill our roles as citizens.\" This is the understanding of being a sociologist that Philip Cohen brings to his research, teaching, and public life, and it is the perspective that he imparts in Citizen Scholar. Cohen argues that scholars should embrace the reciprocal relationship between these social roles and perspectives, which will enhance public and scholarly contributions to society as well as careers in their fields and the institutions they are part of. With a eye towards the present moment, the book's chapters cover what Cohen refers to as the pentagulate strategy of linking peer review, open scholarship, news media contact, social media, and a robust website as the nexus of engagement. The concepts reside with the contexts of engaging with topical issues, doing description, open science, academic debunking, social media engagement, and the uneasy line between activism and propaganda\"-- Provided by publisher.
