Synopses & ReviewsBook News Annotation:Sociologists and related scholars, most in the US though some in--and others from--Africa, explain how fundamentals in the social scientists have been established from and with a White perspective, and survey some of the way this affects practice in the field. Their topics include methodologically eliminating race and racism, power and privilege in experimental methodology, critical demography and measuring racism, and the gospel of feel-good sociology.

Synopsis:White Logic, White Methods shows the ways that a reigning white ideological methodology has poisoned almost all aspects of social science research. The only way to remedy these prevailing inequalities is for the complete overhaul of current methods, and a movement towards multicultural and pluralist approaches to what we know, think, and question. With an assemblage of leading scholars, this collection explores the possibilities and necessary dethroning of current social research practices.
