Descrição
Resumo:The article explores epistemological and methodological contributions of two pioneers of Sociology, Flora Tristan and Harriet Martineau, as part of a broader program for reevaluating the formation of the discipline in the nineteenth century. It argues that, despite their differences, these authors presented original reflections at the time that remain relevant in contemporary sociological debates about intersectionality, positionality, knowledge and methodology in social research. By reassessing the originality of his ideas, the text reinforces the need to revise the foundational history of sociology. Finally, this perspective is articulated with an intersectional concern with the conditions of knowledge production and circulation.
