This series is the first to focus on the historical development and current practices of the social and human sciences. Rather than simply privileging the internal analysis of ideas or external accounts of institutional structures, it publishes high quality studies that use the tools of the social sciences themselves to analyse the production, circulation and uses of knowledge in these disciplines. In doing so, it aims to establish Socio- Historical Studies of the Social and Human Sciences as a scholarly field in its own right, and to contribute to a more reflexive practice of these disciplines.

“This volume provides much needed detailed evidence on transformations in the global social sciences. While emphasizing power relations, it rejects facile notions of globalization or Western/Northern hegemony. Instead, it analyzes regional and global trends in empirical detail and shows the impact actions by authors, translators, publishers, foundations and states can have on the global intellectual constellation.” —Peter Wagner, ICREA Research Professor at the University of Barcelona, Spain “This excellent volume provides evidence for increasing global circulation of scholars and scientific while showing that these processes are far from straightforward. Theoretical perspectives and scientific concepts do not diffuse peacefully. Scientific peripheries are not simply the supine recipients of science from core countries. The global social sciences are marked by a mixture of diminished autonomy in some respects and increased heterogeneity in others; all of this is riven by pervasive power struggles.” —George Steinmetz, Charles Tilly Collegiate Professor of Sociology at the University of Michigan, USA
