Why we need a non-eurocentric history of sociology
In this article, the author reviews the arguments and proposals presented by Carlos Sell in “The destruction of the classics of Sociology: Democratization or homogenization?” in this volume of RBS, critically analyzing them and offering other perspectives and solutions. The author argues that a non-Eurocentric history of sociology is the best strategy to build a global sociology that recognizes the diversity of the social world.
