Abstract
William Isaac Thomas was a pioneer in academic sociology and in interdisciplinary social science. A founder of the Chicago School of Sociology, he ranks among the classics on account of both his empirical work and its conceptual framework. His acclaimed and most influential contributions to the study of ethnic groups and their cultural adaptations paved the way for a social psychology of race relations in the twentieth century. The Polish Peasant in Europe and America , a five‐volume study he coauthored with Florian Znaniecki, is considered one of the most important works in prewar social science.
