Peter Hall on Sociological Memoir

In this episode, Colorado State professor emeritus Peter M. Hall [1] drops in to talk about his forthcoming memoir, "Growing up Red, White, and Jewish: the Personal and the Political". We discuss the potential of memoir as a sociological method, and we consider how telling one's life story helps to reshape identity in the context of place and history. An early draft of Peter's memoir is available on ResearchGate [2].
