About the List 

From award-winning scholarly monographs to market-leading textbooks and state-of-the-art reference works, at Palgrave Macmillan we pride ourselves on our high quality publishing across Sociology. We publish for a global audience of scholars, researchers and students, with a list that features some of the world’s leading social scientists.

Our rich textbook programme offers lecturer and student support across almost every core area of teaching. You’ll find resources to inform, educate and enthuse undergraduate and postgraduate students. The list includes firm student favourites, such as Cohen and Kennedy’s Global Sociology, Stephen Lukes’ Power and the Fevre and Bancroft’s innovative Dead White Men and Other Important People.

Our expanding scholarly publishing programme features cutting-edge monographs, edited collections and reference works, with key strengths in migration, race and ethnicity, gender, childhood studies and family and intimate life.  We are proud to publish the work of some of the best-known scholars in the field, as well as new authors, and to have published the winners of the BSA Philip Abrams Memorial Prize in 2008, 2009 and 2010.  

If you have a proposal for a textbook please contact Anna Reeve at a.reeve@palgrave.com.  If you have a proposal for a research monograph or edited collection please contact Philippa Grand at p.grand@palgrave.com
