    Abstract: Biographical note: Richard Münch ist Professor für Soziologie an der Universität Bamberg.
    Abstract: Long description: Das Lehrbuch bietet die erste umfassende Einführung in die Werke der großen klassischen Denker der Soziologie sowie in mikro- bzw. makrosoziologische Theorieansätze. Der erste Band behandelt Denker wie Spencer, Marx, Pareto, Simmel, Durkheim, Weber und Mead: ihre Sicht auf die Gesellschaft, ihre methodischen Ansätze sowie ihre Wirkung auf die Entwicklung der Soziologie. Im Mittelpunkt des zweiten Bandes stehen Handlungstheorien wie Verhaltenstheorie, Rational-Choice-Theorie, Phänomenologie, Ethnomethodologie, Symbolischer Interaktionismus, Pragmatismus und kognitivistische Sozialpsychologie. Der letzte Band beleuchtet Gesellschaftstheorien: Neomarxismus, Kritische Theorie, Weltsystemanalyse, Konflikttheorie, Figurationssoziologie, Strukturalismus, Poststrukturalismus, Theorien der reflexiven Modernisierung, Funktionalismus und Systemtheorie. Jeder Band enthält ein Glossar; Fragen am Ende der einzelnen Kapitel geben Anstöße zum eigenständigen Weiterdenken.

In his methodology of the social sciences, he both exposed the flaws and solidified the foundations of the German historical tradition. Throughout his life, he saw bureaucracy as a serious obstacle to cultural vitality but as an inescapable part of organizational rationality. And in his most famous essay, on the Protestant ethic, he uncovered the psychological underpinnings of capitalism and modern occupational life. This searching work offers the first comprehensive introduction to Weber's thou

    Abstract: "This book is a study of ideas of cooperation and collective action. The point of departure is a prototypical story found in Rousseau's Discourse on Inequality. Rousseau contrasts hunting hare, where the risk of noncooperation is small but the reward is equally small, with hunting the stag, where maximum cooperation is required but the reward is much greater. Rational agents are pulled in one direction by considerations of risk and in another by considerations of mutual benefit."
    Abstract: "The possibility of a successful solution depends on the coevolution of cooperation and social structure. Brian Skyrms focuses on three factors that affect the emergence of such structure and the facilitation of collective action: location (interactions with neighbors), signals (transmission of information), and association (the formation of social networks)."--Jacket

    Abstract: Traditionally, logic has been claimed to be 'the science of rational argument', but the relevance to our everyday disputes of the formal logician's results has remained unclear. The abstract character of traditional logic cuts the subject off from practical considerations; Mr Toulmin enquires why this is so, and shows how an alternative conception can be of more general value. Starting from an examination of the actual procedures in different fields of argument - the practice, as opposed to the theory, of logic - he discloses a richer variety than is allowed for by any available system. He argues that jurisprudence rather than mathematics should be the logician's model in analysing rational procedures, and that logic should be a comparative and not a purely formal study. These suggestions lead to conclusions which many will consider controversial; though they will also be widely recognized as interesting and illuminating. This book extends into general philosophy lines of enquiry already sketched by Mr Toulmin in his earlier books on ethics and the philosophy of science. The ordinary reader will find in it the same clarity and intelligibility; and the professional philosopher will acknowledge the same power to break new ground (and circumvent old difficulties) by posing fresh and stimulating questions

    Abstract: A comprehensive introduction to the theory of knowledge. Guided by the founding ideas of American pragmatism, Epistemology provides a clear example of the basic concepts involved in knowledge acquisition and explains the principles at work in the development of rational inquiry. It examines how these principles analyze the course of scientific progress and how the development of scientific inquiry inevitably encounters certain natural disasters. At the center of the book's deliberations there lies not only the potential for scientific progress but also the limit of science as well. This comprehensive introduction to the theory of knowledge addresses a myriad of topics, including the critique of skepticism, the nature of rationality, the possibility of science for extraterrestrial intelligences, and the prospect of insoluble issues in science

    Abstract: Excerpt from book: Einleitung -- Kaum eine andere Autorin hat in der gegenwärtigen feministischen Theorie für so viel Aufsehen gesorgt wie Judith Butler. Und kaum eine andere Theoretikerin zu Geschlechterfragen war und ist derart umstritten. Ihr 1991 im Deutschen erschienenes Buch Das Unbehagen der Geschlechter hat tatsächlich ein gehöriges Unbehagen ausgelöst, sowohl innerhalb der Frauen- und Geschlechterforschung und in Teilen der politischen Philosophie als auch in der feministischen Öffentlichkeit. Butler gilt als Begründerin der »Queer Theory«, sie steht für den linguistic turn der Frauen- und Geschlechterforschung, und sie hat -- wie sich zeigen wird, nicht ganz zu Recht -- den Ruf einer typisch »postmodernen« Autorin. Judith Butler wurde im deutschsprachigen Raum zwar sofort nach Erscheinen ihres ersten deutschsprachigen Buches breit rezipiert (was keineswegs selbstverständlich ist) --, sie wurde dabei allerdings zunächst mit Skepsis, ja mit Ablehnung bedacht. Geradezu erbost reagierten manche gestandenen Wissenschaftlerinnen auf ihr Erscheinen auf der feministischen Bühne. Davon zeugen die ersten Auseinandersetzungen um 1993, etwa Carol Hagemann-Whites Feststellung, bei Gender Trouble (so der Originaltitel) handele es sich um ein »höchst oberflächliches und ärgerliches Buch« (Hagemann-White 1993, 69). -- Neben solchen Verärgerungen über die inhaltlichen Setzungen Butlers fanden und finden sich immer wieder zynische bis verzweifelte Klagen über ihren Stil. Rezensionen ihrer Bücher und ihrer Vorträge in den Feuilletons deutscher Tageszeitungen -- aber auch Bemerkungen mancher Kollegen und Kolleginnen an den Universitäten -- betonen immer wieder die schwer zugängliche Sprache von Judith Butler. Eine auch international viel beachtete Kritik der US-amerikanischen Philosophin Martha Nussbaum (1999) warf Butler unter anderem eine vernebelnde, hohle Sprache vor. Nicht zuletzt schrecken Studierende vor ihrem philosophisch-abstrakten Stil zurück -- auch wenn Butler gerade unter diesen ihre wohl größte »Fan-Gemeinde« hat. Die vorliegende Einführung will diese Frustrationen ernst nehmen und versuchen, die komplexen, interdisziplinären Ausführungen von Butler in eine zugänglichere Form zu »übersetzen«. Zugleich soll die Autorin aber auch anhand ihrer Sprache vorgestellt werden. Beispielsweise -- hilft es zu wissen, dass Butler sehr häufig Fragesätze als rhetorisches Mittel einsetzt, um die eigene Position im Kontext theoretischer Debatten zu markieren. So kommt es auch darauf an, sich mit gutem Willen in Butlers Texte einzulesen, um sie zu verstehen. Wie bei vielen anderen einflussreichen Autorinnen und Autoren in der sozial- und geisteswissenschaftlichen Theorie bedarf es einer gewissen Vorbildung ebenso wie einer gewissen Ausdauer, sich ihnen zu nähern. -- Ein weiterer Punkt, der die Butler-Lektüre erschwert, ist ihre Disziplinen übergreifende Ausrichtung und Rezeption: Judith Butler ist von Hause aus Sprachphilosophin und lehrt als Professorin für Rhetorik und Literaturwissenschaft an der University of California in Berkeley. Doch leben ihre Überlegungen vom produktiven Blick über den disziplinären Tellerrand, das heißt, sie greift im besonderen Maße auf Beiträge und Debatten anderer Disziplinen zurück. Psychoanalyse, Philosophie, Sprachtheorie, Geschichte und Sozialwissenschaften, Medientheorie sowie lesbische und feministische Theorien spielen in Butlers Texten eine so wichtige Rolle, dass sie auch in all diesen Disziplinen rezipiert werden -- was die Leser ihrerseits nötigt, sich interdisziplinär fortzubilden. Soziologinnen und Soziologen sind -- möglicherweise psychoanalytische oder subjektphilosophische Terminologien nicht vertraut, und diese wirken sich entsprechend als anstrengende Hürden bei der Lektüre aus. -- Literaturwissenschaftler werden womöglich bei den politiktheoretischen Ausführungen von Butler das entsprechende Buch genervt beiseite legen, und manche Feministin, die sich Impulse für ihre Praxis erhoffte, gibt bei den diffizilen Überlegungen zur Subjekttheorie -- resigniert auf. Positiv lassen sich diese Erfahrungen aber wenden als undramatische Effekte partikularer Lesarten einer ungemein vielseitigen und entsprechend breit rezipierten Autorin. Anders gesagt: Man muss zwar nicht alle Feinheiten aller Aspekte des -- Butlerschen uvres nachvollziehen, um sie in Teilen zu verstehen. Doch sollte man sich auf möglicherweise zunächst fremde (und befremdliche) Begriffe und Argumentationen einlassen wollen. Es lohnt sich. Und es ist machbar.

    Abstract: The first book to propose that Marshall McLuhan be read as a spatial theorist, McLuhan in Space argues that space is the single most consistent concept in McLuhan's vast and eclectic body of work. Richard Cavell demonstrates how McLuhan extended insights derived from advances in physics and artistic experimentation into a theory of acoustic space, which he then used to challenge the assumptions of visual space that had been produced through 500 years of print culture. The notion of acoustic space provided McLuhan with a heuristic probe of prodigious range, allowing him to examine critically the many social and cultural forms of contemporary media production. It also enabled him to cross over intellectually from the purely theoretical realm into that of artistic production, where his interests in radical notions of spatial production were shared by a range of avant garde artists from bp Nichol to Glenn Gould, from John Cage to the Fluxus artists an artistic milieu in which McLuhan increasingly came to situate his work. Cavell's book is the first to examine McLuhan's work in light of this artistic backdrop, and the first to examine his contribution to Canadian studies

    Abstract: "Baracchi has identified pivotal points around which the Republic operates; this allows a reading of the entire text to unfold.... a very beautifully written book." -- Walter Brogan "... a work that opens new and timely vistas within the Republic.... Her approach... is thorough and rigorous." -- John Sallis Although Plato's Republic is perhaps the most influential text in the history of Western philosophy, Claudia Baracchi finds that the work remains obscure and enigmatic. To fully understand and appreciate its meaning, she argues, we must attend to what its original language discloses. Through a close reading of the Greek text, attentive to the pervasiveness of story and myth, Baracchi investigates the dialogue's major themes. The first part of the book addresses issues of generation, reproduction, and decay as they apply to the founding of Socrates' just city. The second part takes up the connection between war and the cycle of life, employing a thorough analysis of Plato's rendition of the myth of Er. Baracchi shows that the Republic is concerned throughout with the complex but intertwined issues of life and war, locating the site of this tangled web of growth and destruction in the mythical dimension of the Platonic city

    Abstract: "Postmodernism has been a buzzword in contemporary society for the last decade. But how can it be defined? In this Very Short Introduction Christopher Butler challenges and explores the key ideas of postmodernists, and their engagement with theory, literature, the visual arts, film, architecture, and music. He treats artists, intellectuals, critics, and social scientists as if they were all members of a loosely constituted and quarrelsome political party - a party which includes such members as Cindy Sherman, Salman Rushdie, Jacques Derrida, Walter Abish, and Richard Rorty - creating a vastly entertaining framework in which to unravel the mysteries of the postmodern condition from the politicizing of museum culture to the cult of the politically correct."--BOOK JACKET

    Abstract: In the second half of the eighteenth century, German philosophy came for a while to dominate European philosophy. It changed the way in which not only Europeans, but people all over the world, conceived of themselves and thought about nature, religion, human history, politics, and the structure of the human mind. In this wide-ranging book, Terry Pinkard interweaves the story of 'Germany' - changing during this period from a loose collection of principalities into a newly-emerged nation with a distinctive culture-with an examination of the currents and complexities of its developing philosophical thought. He examines the dominant influence of Kant, with his revolutionary emphasis on 'self-determination', and traces this influence through the development of romanticism and idealism to the critiques of post-Kantian thinkers such as Schopenhauer and Kierkegaard. His book will interest a range of readers in the history of philosophy, cultural history and the history of ideas

    Abstract: The Economics of Sin examines the definition and evolution of sin from the perspective of rational choice economics, yet is conscious of the limitations of such an approach. The author argues that because engaging in activities deemed to be sinful is an act of choice, it can therefore be subject to the logic of choice in the economic model

    Abstract: Trust deals with a range of questions such as: what are the roles of trust? What can we trust in? Can trust serve as an instrument for the governance of relations? Is trust a substitute, a precondition or an outcome of contracts? The author then goes on to analyse what trust is based on, what its limits are, how it grows and how it can also break down. The role of intermediaries is also discussed

    Abstract: Main description: Bei den Auseinandersetzungen um Arbeitsmarktpolitik, Steuerpolitik, Erziehungspolitik, Meinungs- und Willensfreiheit steht immer auch die grundsätzlichere Frage zur Debatte, was wir unter "sozialer Gerechtigkeit" verstehen. In Gerechtfertigte Ungleichheiten werden die Grundzüge einer Theorie sozialer Gerechtigkeit entwickelt. Es handelt sich um eine egalitäre Theorie, die soziale Ungleichheit ausdrücklich zuläßt, diese aber an das Vorliegen bestimmter öffentlicher Rechtfertigungsgründe bindet.

    Abstract: In this much-needed account of what has gone wrong in our thinking about the environment, Val Plumwood digs at the roots of environmental degradation. She argues that we need to see nature as an end itself, rather than an instrument to get what we want. Using a range of examples, Plumwood presents a radically new picture of how our culture must change to accommodate nature

Challenging the accepted belief that social sciences are in a perpetual state of progress, Abbott contends that disciplines instead cycle around an inevitable pattern of core principles. New schools of thought, then, are less a reaction to an established order than they are a reinvention of fundamental concepts. Chaos of Disciplines uses fractals to explain the patterns of disciplines

    Abstract: With the rise of imperialism, the centuries-old European tradition of humanist scholarship as the key to understanding the world was jeopardized. Nowhere was this more true than in nineteenth-century Germany. It was there, Andrew Zimmerman argues, that the battle lines of today's "culture wars" were first drawn when anthropology challenged humanism as a basis for human scientific knowledge. Drawing on sources ranging from scientific papers and government correspondence to photographs, pamphlets, and police reports of "freak shows," Zimmerman demonstrates how German imperialism opened the door to antihumanism. As Germans interacted more frequently with peoples and objects from far-flung cultures, they were forced to reevaluate not just those peoples, but also the construction of German identity itself. Anthropologists successfully argued that their discipline addressed these issues more productively-and more accessibly-than humanistic studies. Scholars of anthropology, European and intellectual history, museum studies, the history of science, popular culture, and colonial studies will welcome this book.

    Abstract: The book investigates various strategies to provide countries with an incentive to accede, agree and comply to an international environmental agreement (IEA). Finus shows that by integrating real world restrictions into a model, game theory is a powerful tool for explaining the divergence between "first-best" policy recommendations and "second-best" designs of actual IEAs. For instance he explains why (inefficient) uniform emission reduction quotas have played such a prominent role in past IEAs despite economists' recommendations for the use of (efficient) market-based instruments as for example emission targets and permits. Moreover, it is stated, that a single, global IEA on climate is not necessarily the best strategy and small coalitions may enjoy a higher stability and may achieve more

    Abstract: This ambitious and important book provides the first truly general account of Francis Bacon as a philosopher. It explores in detail how and why Bacon attempted to transform the largely esoteric discipline of natural philosophy into a public practice through a program in which practical science provided a model that inspired many from the 17th to the 20th centuries. This book will be recognized as a major contribution to Baconian scholarship of special interest to historians of early modern philosophy, science, and ideas

    Abstract: Long description: Jürgen Habermas ist der international bedeutendste lebende Philosoph Deutschlands, der mit seiner Diskurstheorie einen der wichtigsten Beiträge zur Gegenwartsphilosophie geleistet hat. Er verkörpert darüber hinaus die Figur des kritischen Intellektuellen, der engagiert in gesellschaftliche Debatten eingreift, wenn er sie nicht - wie etwa den "Historikerstreit" der achtziger Jahre - selbst auslöst. In seinen Analysen zum philosophischen Diskurs der Moderne und in seiner kritischen Gesellschaftstheorie zeigt er, worin der normative Gehalt der Moderne besteht.

    Abstract: In this book, Cees J Hamelink proposes an answer to - how should democratic societies organize cyberspace? - that puts human-rights, rather than profit, at the top of the agenda. He argues that conventional ethical approaches are all seriously flawed. There is a growing volume of moral rules, netiquettes and codes of conduct, but they are of little help in solving the moral dilemmas raised by the new technologies. In this book the author analyzes the inadeqacies of current global governance policies and structures that underpin them, and argues for standards which put justice, human security and freedom first.

    Abstract: Finally, social scientists have begun to attempt to understand religious behavior rather than to discredit it as irrational, ignorant, or foolish-and Rodney Stark and Roger Finke have played a major role in this new approach. Acknowledging that science cannot assess the supernatural side of religion (and therefore should not claim to do so), Stark and Finke analyze the observable, human side of faith. In clear and engaging prose, the authors combine explicit theorizing with animated discussions as they move from considering the religiousness of individuals to the dynamics of religious groups a

    Abstract: This collection of original essays explores the social and relational dimensions of individual autonomy. Rejecting the feminist charge that autonomy is inherently masculinist, the contributors draw on feminist critiques of autonomy to challenge and enrich contemporary philosophical debates about agency, identity, and moral responsibility. The essays analyze the complex ways in which oppression can impair an agent's capacity for autonomy, and investigate connections, neglected by standard accounts, between autonomy and other aspects of the agent, including self-conception, self-worth, memory, and the imagination.

    Abstract: Religion in Modern Europe examines religion as a form of collective memory. This is a memory held in place by Europe's institutional churches, educational systems, and the mass media - all of which are themselves responding to rapid social and economic change. Europe's religious memory is approached in the following ways: as vicarious-a particularly European characteristic, as precarious-especially among young people, and as it is portrayed by the media. The memory mayfragment, be disputed, and in extreme cases, disappear. Alternatives may emerge. The challenge for European societies is to aff

    Abstract: Freedom, Sen argues, is both the end and most efficient means of sustaining economic life and the key to securing the general welfare of the world's entire population. Releasing the idea of individual freedom from association with any particular historical, intellectual, political, or religious tradition, Sen clearly demonstrates its current applicability and possibilities. In the new global economy, where, despite unprecedented increases in overall opulence, the contemporary world denies elementary freedoms to vast numbers--perhaps even the majority of people--he concludes, it is still possible to practically and optimistically restain a sense of social accountability
