Abstract
- In light of the importance assumed by the English language in the sociological orbit, this article seeks to show how certain theoretical currents induce epistemologies in national sociologies, to use the expression dear to Foucault, even epistemologies likely to compromise the explication of sociological subject matter of interest within francophone countries, for example. It can be shown that intersectionality and standpoint theory emerge from the "historical configuration" of Anglo‐Saxon countries like the United States, and particularly from the political and militant struggles known in this country, at the root of the political correctness, safe spaces and cultural appropriation that prevail today on American campuses. In conclusion, considerations on "epistemologically correct" sociological theory are exposed, with the intention of nuancing them on an epistemological level. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
