In this collection of essays, the authors examine how racial considerations have affected the way social science is conducted; how issues are framed, and data is analyzed. With an assemblage of leading scholars, White Logic, White Methods explores the possibilities and necessary dethroning of current social research practices, and demands a complete overhaul of current methods, towards multicultural and pluralist approach to what we know, think, and question.
In White Logic, White Methods courageous researchers expose the hidden racist dimensions of mainstream social science, which has long suffered from concealed white supremacy. Tables turn as white scientists become subjects of probing analysis. With critical assessments of past and present research, these original articles offer a path to a renewed, emancipatory social science oriented more to building truly just societies.
