Rural Sociology has failed to incorporate Settler‐colonialism and Indigenous theory in studying rural social relations. This presents a serious gap in the discipline's conceptualization of land as the foundation of social reproduction. Indigenous theory provides rich insights about humans' relations among themselves and with the more‐than‐human that inform our understanding of Settler colonialism as a driver of social formation, and human–environmental interactions more generally. This paper, written by four Indigenous environmental social scientists and one Settler rural sociologist, invites the discipline to engage Indigeneity and Settler colonialism in methodologically, theoretically, and ethically appropriate ways.

在农村社会学中拆解定居者殖民主义遗产的土著观点☆


农村社会学未能将定居者殖民主义和土著理论纳入研究农村社会关系。这代表了该学科将土地作为社会再生产基础的概念化的严重差距。土著理论为人类之间以及与超越人类的关系提供了丰富的见解，这些见解为我们理解定居者殖民主义作为社会形成的驱动力以及更普遍的人类与环境互动提供了信息。这篇论文由四名土著环境社会科学家和一名定居者农村社会学家撰写，邀请该学科以方法论、理论和伦理上适当的方式参与土著和定居者殖民主义。
