William Graham Sumner was een invloedrijke Amerikaanse sociaal wetenschapper die diep geworteld was in het klassiek liberalisme. Als de eerste hoogleraar sociologie van het land in Yale, had hij een diepgaande impact op zijn studenten en het academische landschap. Zijn uitgebreide geschriften bestreken de Amerikaanse geschiedenis, economische geschiedenis, politieke theorie en antropologie, en boden een breed sociaalwetenschappelijk perspectief. Als voorstander van laissez-faire economie en vrije markten was Sumner een uitgesproken tegenstander van imperialisme, waarbij hij de belangen van de "vergeten man" behartigde en een blijvende stempel drukte op het Amerikaanse conservatisme.
