Introduction. Voices from the Margins: Inequalities in the Sociological House
2017
Overview
Sociologists study social inequality in all aspects of life, both locally and across the globe. Yet, they seldom examine their own house. The time has come for sociologists to take a hard look in the mirror, to be reflexive about how social inequality operates within our departments, within our professional organizations, and within our discipline. Race, gender, class, and sexual orientation, for example, matter in society as well as in our discipline. It could not be otherwise, as we, sociologists, carry the imprint of the social. Consciously and unconsciously, through our actions and inactions, we reproduce social inequalities in sociology despite our collective support for diversity and inclusion. This special section follows the town hall plenary at the 2016 American Sociological Association meetings in Seattle, Washington, calling for extended discussion and debate regarding the multiple ways in which social cleavages are reproduced in sociology. The contributors offer their thoughts on the most important issues currently facing sociology and what needs to happen moving forward.
Los sociólogos estudian la desigualdad social en todos los aspectos de vida, tanto localmente como a nivel mundial. A pesar de todo, raramente examinan su casa propia. Ha llegado el momento para sociólogos de mirarse en el espejo, ser reflexivo sobre la desigualdad dentro de nuestros departamentos, dentro de nuestras organizaciones profesionales, y dentro de nuestra disciplina. Raza, género, clase y orientación sexual, por ejemplo, son un problema en la sociedad así como en nuestra disciplina. No podría ser de otra manera ya que nosotros, sociólogos, llevamos la huella social. Consciente e inconscientemente, a través de nuestras acciones e inacciones, reproducimos desigualdades sociales en sociología a pesar de nuestro respaldo colectivo a la diversidad y a la inclusión. Este caso específico sigue el plenario de reuniones en la 2016 Asociación Americana de Sociológica en Seattle, WA, que pide o convoca a debatir y discutir sobre las múltiples formas en que se reproducen las divisiones sociales en sociología. Los colaboradores (ponentes) ofrecen sus reflexiones sobre los asuntos más importantes que está afrontando actualmente la sociología y lo que debe suceder en el futuro.
