Though the word sociology was coined in Europe, the field of sociology grew most dramatically in America. Despite that disproportionate influence, American sociology has never been the subject of an extended historical examination. To remedy that situationand to celebrate the centennial of the American Sociological AssociationCraig Calhoun assembled a team of leading sociologists to produce Sociology in America.Rather than a story of great sociologists or departments, Sociology in America is a true history of an often disparate fieldand a deeply considered look at the ways sociology developed intellectually and institutionally. It explores the growth of American sociology as it addressed changes and challenges throughout the twentieth century, covering topics ranging from the disciplines intellectual roots to understandings (and misunderstandings) of race and gender to the impact of the Depression and the 1960s.Sociology in America will stand as the definitive treatment of the contribution of twentiethcentury American sociology and will be required reading for all sociologists.Contributors:Andrew Abbott, Daniel Breslau, Craig Calhoun, Charles Camic, Miguel A.
