Series: Public Sociology

Leading academics take a distinctive new approach to the understanding of public sociology education in this perceptive new resource.

Through pedagogical case studies and inter-contributor dialogues, they develop and challenge thinking in the field. Divided into three sections on the publics, special knowledges and practices of public sociology education, it looks beyond the boundaries of academia to deliver fresh responses to key disciplinary questions including the purposes and targets of sociological knowledge. For students, academics and practitioners across sociology, it is a timely and thought-provoking contribution to debate about public sociology education.
