Post <blockquote>Said is writ ten about a lot in so ciology. Several names that are frequently talked about here have ap pealed to him in their re se a rch. M ost si gnificantly, a rockstar in my subfield. Very com mon in po st-c ol onial wo k e stuff. I am not sa ying they have the cor .r ect interpretatio ns, but I co nfe ss to easily finding this the w eird est �sociolo gists are una ware of� post e ver. Anyway, pos ting a ne arly 600 page docu ment with a wide a.r;ray of content and asking for a general response does not make an incredible amount of sense. 0/10 attempt at being provocative. Too bad, because sociology could use some wise critique. Also, are there actually a large number kr scholars publishing on neoliberalism not recognizing the etymology, disputes, and differences between disciplines in the term? I know Reed doesn�t, probably because it�s assumed the reader knows where he is coming from. But this was a very big issue in 2016. The crossroads of academia, including Sociology, and pop culture made this really salient, when Neil liberal became a pejorative term for certain kind of progressive. I took the position that it was an accurate description, but not for the reasons offered. The debate long predates this, but I�m surprised to see people arguing that there has been. Huh. No one including yourself is responding to Said's essay, which devastates the wokester discourse. There is one essay in the book, nobody is asking you to read all of the essays. If every sociology grad student were required to read "The Politics of Knowledge," ignorance like the Cite Black Women campaign would never have existed. That's why your response is so strange -- you have clearly not read this essay, because you are not responding to any of its content. Also, Said was not a Marxist and so the reference to WSWS is weird and inexplicable. This thread is not about, "Debate the leftist definition and usage of the word 'neoliberal'" -- the thread is about Said's essay. Nobody is bothering to read it.</blockquote>
