Mentoring Methods and Movements

<p>Terence Kilbourne Hopkins (1929-1997) was a hidden gem of the field of world-systems studies who contributed indispensably to its foundation amid a lifelong collaboration and friendship with Immanuel Wallerstein. His pedagogical humanism methodological rigor and scientific commitment to social change merged with his creatively flexible administrative skills to found the Graduate Program in Sociology at Binghamton University (SUNY). The student-centered autonomous program fostered the formation of critically-minded scholars who pursue transdisciplinary sociology while fusing deeply personal commitments to long-term large-scale social change.</p><p>In this significantly updated twentieth anniversary second edition of <em>Mentoring Methods and Movements</em> Terence K. Hopkins’s former students organizing and contributing to a colloquium in his honor a few months before his untimely passing in January 1997 share key insights about what made him so unique and impactful in shaping their practices of engaged sociology—informed by an always open dynamic and self-reinventing World-Systems Analysis.</p><p><strong>Editors:</strong> Immanuel Wallerstein and Mohammad H.
