Abstract
- Maintaining a proper distance with respect to Eurocentric tradition is the equivalent of being aware of the fact that the diversity of human experience in the world is inexhaustible, and thus no single general theory can explain it. Sustaining such a distance allows for what I call the twofold transgressive sociology of absences and the sociology of emergences. Such a transgressive sociology is, in fact, an epistemological step which consists of contrasting the epistemologies of the South with the dominant epistemologies of the global North.
