Abstract

This chapter discusses the idea of ‘democratic sociology’ through presenting how CREA is doing public sociology grounded in the principles of dialogic democracy. I describe how we conduct dialogic research which identifies ‘successful actions’—evidence of actions that reduced inequalities in different social contexts—in dialogue with researched communities. To illustrate this I provide two examples: (a) the transformation of La Esperanza barrio through the implementation of the ‘dialogic inclusion contract’ and the creation of a worker cooperative, and (b) the other women’s movement, the struggle of non-academic women who have transformed their lives and contributed to a more dialogic feminism.
