@mayrl, Nicholas Hoover Wilson, Matthew Mahler & Josh Pacewicz draw on methodological writings by ethnographers & original interviews with historical sociologists to examine the growing ties between the two fields. This is an excellent case study of interchange between scholarly communities. New & OA in Social Science History!
