Announcing the Summer/Fall 2022 JWSR Special Issue on Immanuel Wallerstein: The Legacies

2023-08-22

Our JWSR editorial team is pleased to announce the publication of the Journal of World-Systems Research Summer/Autumn 2023 Special Issue Immanuel Wallerstein: The Legacies.

This issue takes us on a journey through the breadth of what world-systems analysis offers not just to the field of sociology but to a trans-disciplinary, even anti-disciplinary social science. It features the special section “Immanuel Wallerstein: The Legacies,” compiled by guest editor Christopher Chase-Dunn, a series of essays expanded and reimagined from the “Old Heads Discuss Immanuel Wallerstein’s Ideas” at a conference last year. Among the other myriad contributions is the insightful essay by Jason W. Moore “Power, Profit, and Prometheanism, Part II: Superexploitation in the Web of Life.”

The Journal of World-Systems Research is available free online at jwsr.pitt.edu It is the official journal of the American Sociological Association’s section on Political Economy of the World-System and one of the most established scholarly, peer-reviewed, open access journals. Please help us spread the word about the issue and forward the details below to friends and colleagues.
