A Public Sociology for California

Michael Burawoy

University of California - Berkeley, USA, burawoy{at}berkeley.edu

Some of the most inspiring public sociology takes place at the local level, often hidden from or obscured by professional sociology. Taking inspiration from Edna Bonacich's research with labor and Elizabeth Leonard's research with survivors of extreme domestic violence, this article sketches out what a public sociology for California might mean, and the ways in which professional and critical sociology could support and benefit from such a project.

Key Words: California • domestic violence • labor • public sociology
