Abstract

Which inspirations for and demands on the debate in German sociology spring from the project of “decolonizing” sociology at the theoretical, conceptual, and empirical levels? The collected essays in this volume offer an initial attempt at answering these questions. While self-reflexivity is treated with great importance, the volume still lacks an empirical basis in postcolonial critique.
