You might have missed an interesting piece by Valeria Pulignano and Paul Stewart in Social Europe on why critical sociology matters:
https://www.socialeurope.eu/why-reports-of-sociologys-public-death-are-greatly-exaggerated

"The task is therefore not to mourn sociology’s supposed disappearance, but to recognise and strengthen its continuing — if transformed — public role. In an era marked by democratic fragility and social turbulences, we do not need less sociology. We need a range of sociologies that remain publicly engaged and openly critical."

Sociology has not surrendered its public voice to philosophy. It has lost the illusion that it speaks from nowhere.
