Sara Delamont of Cardiff University will be talking on Reflections from a Pariah Site

Bernstein stated that sociologists of education dwelt in Pariah Sites. This is a powerful metaphor, which deserves exploration. The talk will summarise the arguments of the ´Anomalous Beasts?´ paper in the millennial issue of Sociology; and develop them further in the light of subsequent research.
Sara Delamont is writing the volume on The Sociology of Education for the Sage and BSA millennial series of Sociology books, having published the book on Feminist Sociology in 2003: the seminar will focus both inwards onto sociology of education and outwards onto sociology.
