Sociology in ArgentinaA Long-Term Account /[electronic resource] :by Juan Pedro Blois. - 1st ed. 2020. - VII, 154 p.online resource. - Sociology Transformed. - Sociology Transformed.

1.Introduction -- 2.The “Modernization” of the Social Sciences: Gino Germani and Sociology as a Science (1955–1966) -- 3. Expansion, Politicization, and the Emergence of a “National Sociology” (1966–1974) -- 4.Authoritarianism, Censorship, and the Retreat of Sociology (1974–1983) -- 5.The Restoration of Democracy and the Recovery of Sociology (1983–1989) -- 6.Academic Professionalization and the Making of Sociology as a Consultant Profession (1989 to the Present) -- 7.Concluding Remarks: The Specter of Sisyphus.

This Palgrave Pivot offers a comprehensive portrayal of the development of sociology in Argentina from the mid-1950s to the present day. This first long-term account in English maps the discipline’s troubled trajectory and its close relation to the broader (and turbulent) Argentinian political and economic context, and provides a dramatic exemplification of the politicization and polarization of an academic field and its consequences. Divided in seven chapters, this book examines the sharply different phases that the discipline went through: from the pioneering 1950s, in which sociology was presented as a “science”, to the activist revolt in the 1960s, led by the student movement, to the traumatic experience of the 1970s, when a cruel dictatorship was established and many sociologists were persecuted, and from its progressive recovery from the 1980s to its current growing (yet unstable) presence within academia, and within state agencies, corporations and consulting agencies, and NGOs. This work will appeal to social scientists and students interested in the relations between academia and politics, and to a general readership interested in the recent history of Argentina and Latin-America.
