Sociology in Argentina

Abstract

We want to extend the published genealogical foray into a history of Argentinean sociology into the present. In the first section of this essay, we show the imprinting power of Germanis scholarship over the first two generations of Argentinean sociologists. In the second section, we provide an overview of the successive generations that have restructured the local field, as well as some current main topics of research, and of how contemporary approaches relate to and depart from the foundational topics and logics of inquiry.
