2023 American Sociological Association Annual Meeting
UNC Press is excited to be exhibiting in-person at the American Sociological Association annual meeting! We hope you’ll stop by our booth (305) to say hello to Lucas Church & Peter Perez and to browse our new titles on display. If you can’t join us in-person, you can always visit our virtual booth!
We’re proud to announce two new book series launching with new books publishing this fall.
Series Editors: Ashanté Reese and Hanna Garth
The Black Food Justice series publishes new scholarship at the intersection of Black studies and critical food studies. While books may address any aspect of producing, distributing, or consuming food, the series features scholarship that explores how Blackness can be theorized and understood through the study of food and/or how the meaning of food itself is challenged and transformed when analyzed through theoretical frameworks grounded in Black thought and liberation. As ethnographers of everyday life who have been working as both food justice scholars and activists in the US and beyond for over a decade each, the series editors shaped this series with the intention to name, define, and create future visions for Black food justice scholarship that can have material implications for protecting, nourishing, and cherishing Black life.
Series Editors: Conner Bailey and Jennifer Sherman
The Rural Sociological Society and the University of North Carolina Press collaborate on the Rural Studies Series to promote the scholarly study and analysis of rural social issues. We look for well-written, well-conceptualized, and accessible manuscripts on a wide range of topics of interest to a broad readership. We are especially interested in manuscripts that address the connections between the local and global, the embeddedness of social structure and social processes in the organization of social space, issues of race and ethnicity, environment and climate change, and the integration of rural places within the global system. We seek a diversity of research-based theoretical and methodological approaches and encourage scholars from all social sciences and related fields (e.g., legal scholars) to submit book proposals for possible inclusion in the Series.
