Three systems of order cohabited and were interconnected during the regime. A normative, a prerogative and a parallel illegal ruled the socio-political order of the country. Besides describing how these three orders operated, the essay aims to offer a critique of the exclusivity of the rational-legal type of domination in modern societies by contending that the legal normative order operates next to extra legal and a no-legal ones.

Why do they continue to shape social, political and economic relations well after the biological concept of race was disproven? What are the links between race and colonialism? How is race related to property? How do ideas of race become embedded in state institutions and why do they continue to shape disadvantage and inequality? Though race develops differently in different contexts, it is best thought about through relational readings that draw out both the differences but also the similarities between places and times. Race is seen as being bound up in our identity, as descriptive. But what if we were to ask ‘what does race do?’ rather than ‘what is race?
This course looks at race as performative – as an organizing principle for the management of human life. An idea emanating from the West, race travels the globe with the spread of colonialism. It underpins slavery, imperialism, and Indigenous dispossession. This course will be premised on the idea that to understand politics in western modernity requires placing race and coloniality central to sociological and historical analyses.
We will draw on race critical and decolonial texts to focus on race as a modern idea that is shaped in the contexts of Empire, capitalism, colonialism, slavery, genocide, immigration, and p(post)multicultural societies. Particular attention will be given to black and decolonial thinking as a means, not only of challenging the persistence of racisms, but of more truthfully representing the breadth of scholarship in general.
Additionally, we will look at how whiteness operates as an (in)visible regime of domination within so-called color-blind societies. We will also study how regimes of race were developed in history and for different types of populations, such as in settler colonial societies like the United States, Canada, Argentina, Australia, French Algeria, South Africa, Brazil, and Israel.

Our readings include selections from a range of modern thinkers who were responsible for creating some of social sciences' most memorable and influential narratives; we continue to use them today to make sense of our own world and each other's place in it. While the course will follow the Eurocentric formation of sociological theory, it will also rely on a subaltern critique of western modernity in order to provide the most diverse range of interpretations and perspectives of classical modern social theory. The course will be framed in an interdisciplinary way. Many of the authors that we will study have been considered the progenitors of sociology, anthropology, political sciences, psychology, and economics. We will survey the origins and the development of the social sciences and critical thought from the European Enlightenment up until the beginnings of the modern disciplines of sociology and anthropology in the United States. Following a brief critical discussion of the meaning of the notions of modernity and progress, we will take on the precursors of modern social sciences with the English and French Contractarians, in order to end with the forebears of Classical Liberalism both in Politics and Economics: Adam Smith and Alexis de Tocqueville. Later, we will explore the main works of Karl Marx and Max Weber, whom as German thinkers were motivated to understand, and explain, the sudden social changes that Western European societies were experiencing. Both of them will distinctly redefine the meaning of history in order to analyze the past, present and future. Subsequently, we study the emergence of a variety of schools of thought and disciplines in Europe, in the early 20 th century, that will be engaged with examining the relationship between symbols, the mind, and community. Emile Durkheim, Sigmund Freud, and Georg Simmel will be some of the interlocutors here. Lastly, we will dive into the birth of sociology and anthropology in the United States with thinkers that questioned systems of power based on gender and
