Area of expertise

Corporate capitalism, climate crisis, social movements and social change

Dr. Carroll is a critical sociologist with research interests in the political economy/ecology of corporate capitalism, social movements and social change, and critical social theory and method. His current research is focused around the relationships between corporate power, fossil capitalism and the climate crisis. He co-directs “Mapping the power of the carbon-extractive corporate resource sector,” an SSHRC-funded partnership of several universities and civil-society organizations which traces the modalities of corporate power and resistance within the global political economy, focusing on fossil capital based in western Canada.

A member of the Sociology Department at the University of Victoria since 1981, and founding Director of the interdisciplinary program in Social Justice Studies, Dr. Carroll’s books include Organizing the 1%: How Corporate Power Works (with J.P. Sapinski), Expose, Oppose, Propose: Alternative Policy Groups and the Struggle for Global Justice, A World to Win (with Kanchan Sarker), The Making of a Transnational Capitalist Class, Corporate Power in a Globalizing World, Corporate Power and Canadian Capitalism, Remaking Media (with Bob Hackett), Critical Strategies for Social Research and Organizing Dissent. He was a founding participant in the Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Cultural, Social and Political Thought and has been awarded the Canadian Sociology Association's John Porter Memorial Prize twice: in 1988 for Corporate Power and Canadian Capitalism and in 2006 for Corporate Power in a Globalizing World. In 2008 he was awarded the University of Victoria Faculty of Social Sciences Research Excellence Award; in 2011 he received the CSA’s Outstanding Contribution Award, for career achievements.

Dr. Carroll was President (2010-14) of Economy and Society, a large Research Committee of the International Sociological Association, and currently serves on its Executive Committee. He is also Vice President of ISA’s Futures Research Committee and sits on 11 academic editorial boards.
