Summary:Sociology at the University of Canterbury has contributed to the development of this field of social science in Aotearoa New Zealand and internationally, but its vitality and energy has often been sustained by interdisciplinary connections and linkages across academia, the state sector, social research consultancies, community organisations and social movements. This article explores these connections through attention to the biographies of some of the staffand graduate students who have participated in this academic programme since 1958. It offers one participant's view of the shifting features of this network of people, social relationships and professional practices.
