Feminism and Imperialism, 1890-1920: Our Anti-Imperialist Sisters-Missing in Action from American Feminist Sociology
This article retrieves part of our historical past to address two omissions in American feminist sociology on the subject of global imperialism. The first section addresses the inadequate attention feminist sociologists have paid to how major leaders of the women's movement responded to U.S. overseas expansion in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It documents how these early feminists had both progressive and reactionary response…
Standing at the Crossroads of Modernist Thought: Collins, Smith, and the New Feminist Epistemologies
Recent debates between modernists and postmodernists have shaken the foundations of modern social science. The epistemological assumptions of long-established procedures for constructing and validating knowledge claims have been called into question. This article discusses how two major contributors to the 'new feminist epistemologies'-Dorothy Smith and Patricia Hill Collins-selectively integrate premises of modernist and postmodernist thought in…
Paradigm Shifts in Family Sociology? Evidence From Three Decades of Family Textbooks
This article explores paradigm shifts in family sociology from the 1960s to the 1990s using a thematic content analysis of 7 multiple-edition texts.

Dorothy Smith argues that Parson's theoretical assumptions are so deeply embedded in the discourse…

The rise of wage labour in the cotton south: A global analysis
Much of the existing literature on the replacement of sharecropping by wage labour in the cotton South during the post-Depression era tends to focus on developments internal to the United States and to the South as a region. As such, it fails to provide a more global analysis which takes into account the fact that Southern cotton production was integrally tied to a world economy. This article addresses these shortcomings by examining how changes …
Obstacles to the development of a capitalist agriculture
This paper examines some of the reasons for the maintenance and persistence of family labour farms within agricultural sectors of advanced capitalist countries: some obstacles to the development of a capitalist agriculture are highlighted. The survival of family farms has called into question Marx's theory of the transitional nature of petty commodity production; hence, Marxism is generally regarded as being unable to account for the viability of…
