'This book is a fantastic dive into sociological reflexivity. Looking at the ways sociologists in different corners of the world live their discipline, the author offers the reader an inspiring way to reflect about contemporary sociology. While the sociologists interviewed disclose their lived experience Kalekin-Fishman crafts their discourse into a powerful interpretation of present day challenges confronting not only sociology but all the social sciences.' - Professor of Sociology, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

'Thinking globally is not only understanding the global economy. It also means analyzing the world today with new tools, and taking into account recent perspectives that are opened by social scientists all over the world - not only in English. Nobody could do it better than Devorah Kalekin-Fishman, with her experience as a former vice president for publications at the International Sociological Association.' - Michel Wieviorka, President of the Fondation Maison des Sciences de l'Homme and Professor at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, France 'This book is a fantastic dive into sociological reflexivity.
