Resumen

En el proyecto para (re)construir una sociología global no hay un paradigma acordado, ni siquiera una comprensión compartida de las principales cuestiones que serían necesarias para lograr un nuevo modelo robusto y creíble. Lo que intentaré aquí es únicamente clarificar los términos del debate para determinar cómo deberíamos perseguir con convicción la búsqueda de este paradigma alternativo. En primer lugar, abordo la “gran cuestión” de una sociología global basada en los supuestos de la teoría de la globalización que, en general, adolece de economismo desde mi punto de vista. Posteriormente, presento una perspectiva postcolonial que plantea una división fundamental entre el Sur y el Norte global, una iniciativa que encuentro marcada por un cierto culturalismo. Adicionalmente, ofrezco elementos para un enfoque alternativo hacia un nuevo modelo basado en una comprensión de la complejidad, el desarrollo desigual y las políticas de escala. Una breve digresión latinoamericana al final del artículo tiene el propósito de realizar una aportación al debate general sobre una nueva sociología global que podría desarrollarse a través de una perspectiva crítica desde el Sur y un enfoque en la economía política cultural.
