Biographie de l'auteur :

William Graham Sumner (1840–1910) was an American academic and professor at Yale College. For many years he had a reputation as one of the most influential teachers there. He was a polymath with numerous books and essays on American history, economic history, political theory, sociology, and anthropology. He is credited with introducing the term "ethnocentrism," a term intended to express his anti-imperialism, in his book Folkways (1906). Sumner was also the first to teach a course entitled "sociology" in the United States, before even Émile Durkheim had established the formal discipline in Europe.
