Artiklen skildrer historien om Dansk Sociologi fra etableringen i 1989-1990 til
 jubilæumsåret 2014. Initiativet blev taget af Dansk Sociologforening under
 den institutionelle krise i faget, der kulminerede da undervisningsminister
 Bertel Haarder besluttede at lukke uddannelsen. Tidsskriftet har været benyttet
 som publiceringskanal af en meget stor andel af danske sociologer og
 oplagstal har været stigende frem til omkring 2006. De seneste 10-15 år har
 man kunnet se et skift i indholdsprofilen, fra en dominans af teoretisk orienterede
 emner over mod en bred vifte af empiriske emner og en tilpasning til
 en mainstream akademisk, upersonlig form. Dansk Sociologi er et udpræget
 pluralistisk tidsskrift og kontroverser mellem forskellige teoretiske retninger
 eller om specifikke spørgsmål har man ikke set. Artiklen drøfter også fremtidige
 udfordringer som især er internationalisering, de nye digitale medier og
 krav om open access.
 
 
 ENGELSK ABSTRACT:
 
 Kristoffer Kropp, Gry Malling Loehr and Heine Andersen:
 The Role of Dansk Sociologi in the Development of Danish Sociology. Dissemination of Knowledge and Inspiration for 25 years
 
 This article describes and evaluates the journal Dansk Sociologi (Danish Sociology)
 from its inception in 1989-1990 until its 25th anniversary in 2014. The
 Danish Sociological Association took the initiative to set up the journal during
 sociology’s institutional crisis due to fact that the Minister of Education had
 decided to close the sociology department at the University of Copenhagen,
 the only place in Denmark with the discipline. The article discusses the evolution
 of the journal’s organizational framework, its authors, editors, and content.
 The journal has been used as a vehicle for publication by a large proportion
 of Danish sociologists. Subscriptions have been growing until 2006. There
 has been a shift from theoretical articles to a wider range of empirical ones,
 and from a more discussion-based form to a more detached and standardized
 academic one. There has been considerable pluralism, and there have been no
 major controversies. The challenges that the journal must address are an internationalization pressure that could weaken authors’ incentives to write for a
 Danish journal, the transition to internet media, and finally requirements for
 open access that could threaten the journal’s economy.
 
 Keywords: the journal Dansk Sociologi, the Danish Sociological Association,
 sociology’s history.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Myšlenku kulturní sociologie odstartoval nový pohled na francouzského sociologického klasika Émila Durkheima prezentovaný ve sborníku Durkheimian Sociology: Cultural Studies editovaným Jeffreym Alexanderem (1988). Odmítnut byl Durkheim - positivista, materialista, předchůdce strukturního funkcionalismu a teorie systémů, a pro kulturní sociologii byl objeven Durkheim jako teoretik náboženství a kultury, Durkheim subjektivistický. S tím Alexander spojil svébytnou periodizaci klasikova díla, která je založena na radikálním rozporu mezi pozdními a ranými pracemi. Inspirace pro kulturní sociologii byly čerpány téměř výlučně z pozdějšího období kolem díla Elementární formy náboženského života. Tento článek se bude snažit prozkoumat i rané Durkheimovy práce – Pravidla sociologické metody a Společenskou dělbu práce – a hledat v nich nové zdroje inspirace pro kulturní sociologii. V první zmíněné knize bych chtěl rehabilitovat Durkheimův positivismus, který nemusí být nutně chápan jako rozporný s kulturní sociologií. Naopak by mohl přispět k diskuzi o kulturní autonomii. Ve druhé zmíněné knize chci výrazněji odlišit ekonomickou a kulturní rovinu a diskutovat, jak by kulturní sociologie mohla chápat pojmy solidarity a dělby práce. Zvláštní důraz kladu na dva typy mezilidské vzájemnosti (sounáležitost/doplňující se různost), jež Durkheimovi slouží jako základ pro pojmy mechanické a organické solidarity. Kulturní sociologie by tyto typy podle mého názoru mohla dobře využít pro pojem kulturní identity.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
For over 50 years I have been, and remain, an interdisciplinary social scientist seeking to develop and apply social science to improve the well-being of human individuals and social life. Sociology has been my disciplinary home for 48 of these years. As a researcher/scholar, teacher, administrator, and member of review panels in both sociology and interdisciplinary organizations that include and/or intersect with sociology, I have sought to improve the quality and quantity of sociolog ists and sociolog y. This article offers my assessment as a participant observer of what (largely American) sociology has been over the course of my lifetime, which is virtually coterminous with the history of modern (post–World War II) sociology, and what it might become. I supplement my participant observations with those of others with similarly broad perspectives, and with broader literature and quantitative indicators on the state of sociology, social science, and society over this period. I entered sociology and social science at a time (the 1960s and early 1970s) when they were arguably their most dynamic and impactful, both within themselves and also with respect to intersections with other disciplines and the larger society. Whereas the third quarter of the twentieth century was a golden age of growth and development for sociology and the social sciences, the last quarter of that century saw sociology and much of social science—excepting economics and, to some extent, psychology—decline in size, coherence, and extradisciplinary connections and impact, not returning until the beginning of the twenty-first century, if at all, to levels reached in the early 1970s. Over this latter period, I and numerous other observers have bemoaned sociology's lack of intellectual unity (i.e., coherence and cohesion), along with attendant dissension and problems within the discipline and in its relation to the other social sciences and public policy. The twenty-first century has seen much of the discipline, and its American Sociological Association (ASA), turn toward public and critical sociology, yet this shift has come with no clear indicators of improvement of the state of the discipline and some suggestions of further decline. The reasons for and implications of all of this are complex, reflecting changes within the discipline and in its academic, scientific, and societal environments. This article can only offer initial thoughts and directions for future discussion, research, and action. I do, however, believe that sociology's problems are serious, arguably a crisis, and have been going on for almost a half-century, at the outset of which the future looked much brighter. It is unclear whether the discipline as now constituted can effectively confront, much less resolve, these problems. Sociolog ists continue to do excellent work, arguably in spite of rather than because of their location within the current discipline of sociolog y. They might realize the brighter future that appeared in the offing as of the early 1970s for sociology and its impact on other disciplines and society if they assumed new organizational and/or disciplinary forms, as has been increasingly occurring in other social sciences, the natural sciences, and even the humanities. Society needs more and better sociology. The question is how can we deliver it.

O artigo busca analisar e problematizar a rápida passagem do jovem Michael Löwy pela sociologia do trabalho, quando realizou, em 1959, uma pesquisa sobre as atitudes e a consciência operária entre dirigentes sindicais metalúrgicos. Para isso, contextualiza esse estudo no curso do processo de institucionalização da sociologia brasileira, em particular o desenvolvimento das pesquisas acerca da indústria e do trabalho realizadas na Universidade de São Paulo, nas décadas de 1950 e 1960. Como conclusão, pode-se afirmar que Löwy apresentou, já àquela época, num manuscrito até então desconhecido, uma possível alternativa ao estilo de sociologia vigente na USP. As reflexões e conclusões deste artigo estão ancoradas em consultas realizadas em arquivos e numa entrevista com o próprio autor.MICHAEL LÖWY AND THE SOCIOLOGY OF WORK: the discovery of the class consciousness of the working class The article analyzes and problematizes the rapid passage of the young Michael Löwy by the sociology of the work, when in 1959 realized research on the attitudes and the workers’ conscience among metallurgical union leaders.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
I äktenskapssammanhang brukar jämna årsfiranden kläs i någon form av materialistisk symbolik, ju högre siffra desto ädlare och mer statusfylld materia. Siffran 60 förknippas vanligtvis med diamanter, som är en symbol för det okrossbara och det exceptionella tålamodet. Oavsett om det handlar om äktenskap eller om tidskrifter är det ingen självklarhet att uppnå 60 år, och detta är därför något att uppmärksamma och fira. När nu ger ut sin 60:e årgång vill vi rikta tacksamma och stolta tankar mot alla de sociologer som under åren haft ansvaret att verka för svensk sociologi och upprätthålla en nationell sociologisk tidskrift. Periodvis har det ekonomiska läget varit svårt för tidskriften, ibland har det varit svårt att rekrytera redaktionsmedlemmar såväl som granskare, och inte sällan har det saknats gott manusunderlag. Vissa av problemen kvarstår – redaktionen behöver fortfarande flera inskickade bidrag – men liksom våra företrädare kämpar vi på för att vi anser att tidskriften är en viktig fackla för svensk sociologi. I samband med tidskriftens femtioårsjubileum 2013 återpublicerades tre artiklar från tidigare årgångar som har haft betydelse för svensk sociologi- och kunskapsutveckling, skrivna av Hans L Zetterberg, Walter Korpi och Rita Liljeström. Under 2014 blickade tidskriften återigen bakåt för att kunna reflektera över sociologins tillstånd i Sverige. Den gången fick en skara sociologiprofessorer skriva om sin akademiska resa och gärning. I detta jubileumsnummer vill vi rikta blicken mot samtiden och framtiden, som en intressant fortsättning på tidigare jubileumsnummer, med reflektioner över ämnets historia och utveckling. Bland annat har vi bjudit in juniora sociologer att diskutera hur sociologin, i form av forskning, undervisning och samhällsengagemang, kan bidra till förståelsen av vår samtid. Under ledning av Lisa Ferm genomfördes en gruppintervju med Mattis Karlsson, Johanna Köpsén, Isa Norvell Gustavsson, Josefin Persdotter, Jon Sunnerfjell och Emanuel Wittberg. Det blev ett engagerat samtal om sociologins potential att hjälpa människor att tolka och förstå sin omvärld, till exempel genom att låta sociologiska perspektiv genomsyra undervisningen redan i skolans tidiga år. Vidare diskuteras sociologins väsen, identiteten som sociolog och ämnets utmaningar. Sammantaget präglas samtalet av en tro på och passion för sociologiämnets värde, både vad gäller dess bredd och dess djup. Därutöver har flera hörsammat utlysningen för numret och bidragit skriftligt med personliga reflektioner om sociologiämnets roll i ett vidare sammanhang och i anslutning till antingen forskning, utbildning eller samhällsdebatt. Bidragen har genomgått en redaktionell granskning med syftet att helheten ska spegla en mångfacetterad och samtida sociologi. Josef Ginnerskov skriver om hur sociologi lärs ut och därigenom vad sociologi är. Han reflekterar kring sociologins institutionalisering och hur ämnets självbild utvecklats genom åren. Sociologin har ofta blivit krisförklarad. Likväl fortsätter ämnet att läras ut och beforskas. Ginnerskov drar paralleller mellan hur sociologiämnet utvecklats och hur det åskådliggjorts för andra genom undervisning. På detta sätt knyts ämnesdidaktik samman med ämnesidentitet, vilket han diskuterar med hjälp av begreppet sociologididaktik. Anna Engstam skriver ett upprop för en ”öppen sociologi” – en sociologi driven av det lilla men ack så viktiga prefixet ”för”. Hon diskuterar betydelsen av förmågan till för-reflexivitet och förvetenskapliga impulser som ett grundelement i det sociologiska tänkandet och görandet. Texten uppmuntrar läsaren att för stunden våga sjunka ner under ytan av fastslagna metodologiska standarder och teoretiska modeller och förnimma det kreativa teoretiserandet. I samma anda skriver Colm Flaherty om en ”nyfiken sociologi”. Mot bakgrund av den personliga erfarenheten att som student upptäcka sociologins tjusning diskuterar han den sociologiska visionen att professionellt och nyfiket utforska samhället och samtidens olika sociala problem. Framförallt lägger han stor vikt vid det sociologiska görandet, då den kan väcka nyfikenhet och sporra till reflexivet hos andra människor och därigenom även bidra till att påverka samhället. Patrik Aspers skriver om den humboldtska andan att förena forskning och undervisning och om varför det tycks vara så svårt att berika de båda elementen genom korsbefruktning. Utifrån egna erfarenheter, från Sverige och utomlands, skriver han om strukturella och kulturella svårigheter att förverkliga det humboldtska idealet, men också̊ om de visioner och goda ambitioner som behövs för att skapa ett livskraftigt ämne. Den uppmärksamme läsaren tänker: Patrik Aspers är väl inte en junior sociolog! Nej det är han givetvis inte. Aspers är professor och har bjudits in till detta nummer som representant för tidskriftens redaktionsråd att reflektera kring temat för numret. Och han är inte den ende seniora sociologen i sammanhanget. Till vår stora glädje kan vi också presentera två intervjuer med internationellt erkända sociologer: professor Eva Illouz och professor Hartmut Rosa. Eva Illouz har under många år utforskat känslornas strukturella betydelse i samhället. I flera böcker har hon problematiserat teman som kärlek och relationer i vår samtida konsumtionskultur. Illouz är aktuell med en ny bok om populismens känsloliv, som kom ut på engelska i somras (och som kommer i svensk översättning nästa år). Därmed tar hon sig an en helt annan typ av känslor än tidigare, närmare bestämt rädsla, avsky och förbittring. I denna intervju fick Poul Poder och Marcus Persson en exklusiv möjlighet att samtala med Illouz om nya boken och hennes tankar om den populistiska samtidens känslor som frodas i såväl politiska rum som i sociala medier. Därmed kretsar samtalet kring hur samtidens stora frågor och känslor hänger samman, och hur vi bör känna, och tänka, för att odla det goda demokratiska samhället. Hartmut Rosa har etablerat sig som en av samtidens mest uppmärksammade sociologer genom sina böcker om social acceleration och resonans. Hans senaste bok är en sociologisk analys av heavy metal. I samband med en föreläsning vid Göteborgs universitet i mars 2023 fick Carl Cassegård, Karl Malmqvist och Christian Ståhl tillfälle att genomföra en intervju som kom att röra sig kring ämnen som sociologin och dess framtid, kritisk teori, klimatförändringar samt möjligheten till en resonant demokrati. Utifrån sitt begrepp resonans resonerar han kring vikten av ett lyssnande och tillitsfullt samhälle med människor som känner att de besitter en politisk egenförmåga för att undkomma populism och främlingsfientlighet. Det finns ett hundratal sociologiska tidskrifter på engelska men bara en på svenska. I ”förbundet har ordet” skriver Åsa Lundqvist, Åsa Wettergren och Ylva Wallinder om utmaningarna, men också̊ om fördelarna, med en svensk sociologisk tidskrift i en era av internationalisering. Att skriva på svenska för en svensk publik kan vara kreativt och lustfyllt – intellektuellt och språkligt – och dessutom gynna spridningen av forskning både i undervisning och i samhällsdebatt. Numret innehåller också recensioner av nya böcker och avhandlingar: Miguel A. Martínez recension av Elton Chans avhandling; Johan Alfonssons recension av Kohei Saitos bok Marx in the Anthropocene; samt Jonas Bååths recension av Michael Carolans The Sociology of Food and Agriculture. Sammantaget bjuder vi på en mix av reflekterande texter med ambitionen att sporra till tankar och fortsatta diskussioner om sociologins roll i samhället och dess förmåga att ta sig an samtidens utmaningar. Trevlig läsning! Marcus Persson och Christian Ståhl Redaktörer för Sociologisk Forskning

English This article explores selected significant instances of sociology's contributions and connections to economics. These contributions are framed and analyzed within a historical and interdisciplinary setting of the originally common or convergent roots (Enlightenment philosophical rationalism and liberalism) and early co-developments, and yet the subsequently (especially since the 1930s) divergent trajectories and destinations of sociology and economics. These contributions are divided into two general categories: theoretical-substantive and methodological-epistemological. Sociological analyses of market phenomena, societal development and institutions are adduced as examples of sociology's theoretical contribution to economics. Ideal-types, Verstehen, and sociology of knowledge exemplify its methodological contributions and connections to economics. The article aims to help bridge a gap in the current literature in which such contributions and connections of sociology to economics are rarely recognized and considered in favor of those in the opposite (“rational-choice”) direction. French L'article explore certains apports importants de la sociologie à l'économie et les interrelations entre les deux disciplines. Ces apports sont analysés dans une perspective historique et interdisciplinaire, des racines originellement communes ou convergentes des deux disciplines (le rationalisme philosophique des Lumières et le libéralisme) et de leur développement initial commun à leurs trajectoires et destinations par la suite - en particulier depuis les années trente - divergentes. Ces apports se répartissent en deux grandes catégories: théoriques-formels et méthodologiques-épistémologiques. Les analyses sociologiques des phénomènes de marché, du développement de la société et des institutions sont donnés en exemples de contributions théoriques de la sociologie à l'économie. Les types-idéaux, Verstehen, et la sociologie de la connaissance témoignent de son apport méthodologique à l'économie et de ses liens avec celle-ci. L'article a pour ambition de combler un vide dans la littérature qui n'atteste que rarement l'existence de tels apports de la sociologie à l'économie, en privilégiant plutôt à l'inverse les apports de l'économie à la sociologie ("choix rationnel").

On the Very Idea of Unified Sociology: Harvard and ColumbiaAbstract: The article concentrates on the historical context of American sociology's development in the period between 1930 and 1965, which is here associated with a specific project of the field's unification elaborated at Harvard University and Columbia University. It is argued that the idea of unified sociology is worked in the very project of American sociology as a science and found its genuine expression in the efforts to reach "objectivity and coherence" of sociological thought/knowledge. It also distinctly formed the professional identity of the discipline. It was expected that the scientific integrity would be achieved by means of securing the continuity of theory and practice, which was to provide a general methodological pillar for cumulative research. The historical contextualization of this formative period studies how the very idea of unified sociology affected both theoretical and methodological perspectives within the discipline and also the possibility of its integrated research agenda.O samotné myšlence jednotné sociologie: Harvard a ColumbiaAbstrakt: Článek se zaměřuje na historický kontext vývoje americké sociologie v období mezi lety 1930-1965, jež je spojeno se specifickým projektem sjednocení oboru rozpracovaným na Harvardské a Kolumbijské univerzitě. Samotná myšlenka jednotné sociologie je neoddělitelně vpletena do celého projektu americké sociologie jako vědy a své „čisté" vyjádření nalezla v úsilí prokázat „objektivitu a koherenci" sociologického myšlení/vědění. Zcela zřetelně také formovala profesní identitu oboru. Prostředkem zajištění vědecké integrity bylo především zajištění kontinuity teorie a praxe, ježby založilo a o něž by se mohlo opírat pevné metodologické „sebevědomí". Historická kontextualizace tohoto formativního období si klade za cíl sledovat, nakolik myšlenka sjednocené sociologie ovlivnila teoretické a metodologické perspektivy v rámci oboru i vlastní představy o možnosti jeho integrované výzkumné agendy.

Denne artikel skitserer Kierkegaards indflydelse på sociologien i det 20. århundrede. Med udgangspunkt i den ungarske sociolog Arpad Szakolczais metodiske begreb om sociologiens ”baggrundsfigurer”, argumenteres det, at Kierkegaard ofte har udøvet en ”skjult”, men afgørende indflydelse på en lang række tænkere inden for den klassiske sociologi, såsom Simmel, Mannheim, Weber, Adorno og Frankfurterskolen. I forlængelse heraf argumenteres det, at Foucaults sene forfatterskab udviklede sig i en intim dialog med Kierkegaards skrifter. Derfor bør Kierkegaard også anerkendes som en nøglefigur for den kritiske teori. Artiklen har som overordnet mål at klargøre Kierkegaards relevans for den sociologiske teoridannelse og den nutidige samfundsforståelse.
 
 
 ENGELSK ABSTRACT:
 
 Bjørn Thomassen: Stages on Sociology’s Way: Søren Kierkegaard and the Social Sciences
 
 The aim of this article is to ascertain Kierkegaard’s relevance for sociological theory formation as well as diagnostic understandings of contemporary society. The article surveys Kierkegaard’s influence on sociology in the 20th century. Drawing on the Hungarian sociologist Arpad Szakolczai’s methodological concept of ”background figures”, it argues that Kierkegaard has often exercised a ”hidden” but decisive influence on a series of thinkers in classical sociology, including Simmel, Mannheim, Weber, Adorno and the Frankfurt school. The article also argues that Foucault’s late authorship developed in an intimate dialogue with Kierkegaard’s writings. For these reasons, Kierkegaard must also be recognized as a key figure for critical theory. 
 
 Keywords: Kierkegaard, Mannheim, Simmel, Weber, Foucault, critique.

Introduction. The dynamics of Russian sociology research are analyzed for the period of 1993—2020. Methods. The sources of information for the study were three databases on the Web of Science platform: SSCI, SCI-E, and A&HCI. The main method of research was bibliometric analysis. Results and Discussion. The percentage of publications in sociology among the social sciences in the world as a whole has gradually declined over the 28-year period: from 4.7 % in 1993 to 2.3 % in 2020. The decline in the same indicator for Russian publications began only in 2008. It should be noted that this indicator is significantly higher than that for the world as a whole: the average percentage of publications in sociology for the entire period for the world was 3.2 %, for Russia — 16.4 %. The percentage of the world's Open Access publications in sociology is lower than that for the social sciences as a whole, but the growth rate is very high: 1.7 % in 1993 and 34.1 % in 2020. In the case of Russian sociology publications, the Open Access system has only become relatively active in 2013. In 2020, the total percentage of such publications was 7.9 %. Two approaches were used to define the thematic range of sociology research and the level of sociology's connection to other scientific fields. One is based on identifying publications that are common to two of the scientific fields under study, the other involves on identifying publications that were simultaneously cited in different scientific fields. Application of these approaches demonstrated that the second approach, as compared with the first, allowed to reveal much more extensive thematic connections of sociology with other scientific directions. At the same time, the application of rank correlation methods showed that the results obtained using these two different approaches are characterized by a sufficient degree of consistency. Conclusion. The data obtained on the percentage of publications in sociology in national and world science can be used by various state and public structures in the development of scientific policy in the field of social sciences. Data on sociology's connections with other disciplines and their quantitative characteristics can serve as background material for subsequent qualitative (substantive) analysis of these connections.

<strong>RESUMO</strong>: A Sociologia do Conhecimento, formulada por Karl Mannheim, esbarrou em uma problemática epistemológica levantada pelo Positivismo Lógico, com a introdução dos conceitos ‘contexto da descoberta’ e ‘contexto da justificação’. A partir das teses de Thomas Kuhn, a Sociologia do Conhecimento, renovando o fôlego, voltase também para a investigação do conhecimento científico, formulando alternativas teórico-epistemológicas no âmbito do estudo construtivista do conhecimento. <strong>Palavras-chave:</strong> Sociologia do Conhecimento, Sociologia da Ciência, Sociologia do Conhecimento Científico, Epistemologia, Construtivismo. <strong>KARL MANNHEIM THE EPISTEMOLOGICAL PROBLEM OF THE SOCIOLOGY OF KNOWLEDGE: IS IT POSSIBLE A CONSTRUCTIVIST SOLUTION? </strong> <strong>Abstract</strong>: The Sociology of Knowledge, formulated by Karl Mannheim, dashed in a epistemological problem raised up by Logical Positivism, with the introduction of the concepts ‘ways of discovery and ways of validation’. Starting from Thomas Kuhn’s theses the Sociology of Knowledge, not only try to solve its epistemological problem but also included in its investigation program the scientific knowledge, through formulating theoretical and epistemological alternatives in the ambit of the constructivist studies of the knowledge. <strong>Keywords</strong>: Sociology of Knowledge, Sociology of Science, Sociology of Scientific Knowledge, Epistemology, construtivism.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Denne artikel har tre formål. For det første er det hensigten at udrede forbindelserne mellem begreberne retfærdiggørelse, ideologi og kritik, som de foreligger hos Luc Boltanski og Ève Chiapello i Le Nouvel Esprit du capitalisme (1999) (NEC i det følgende) og denne bogs forudsætninger. For det andet skal forholdet mellem kritisk sociologi og kritiksociologi afklares. Boltanski markerer sig i 1980-90erne med en tese om, at sociologien om de sociale aktørers kritiske kompetencer bør erstatte en sociologi, som selv vil være kritisk. I NEC vender imidlertid en idé om kritisk sociologi tilbage. Her skal de to tilgange integreres, som det hedder i forordet til den engelske udgave af NEC (Boltanski & Chiapello 2005:xii). Hvordan hænger dette sammen? For det tredje skal Boltanski og Chiapellos (B&C i det følgende) begrebs- og teoridannelse præciseres gennem konfrontation med dels en marxistisk forståelse af ideologi og kritik, dels aktør-netværksteorien i Bruno Latours udgave, ifølge hvilken kritisk sociologi er noget af det værste og mest skadelige, der er hændt samfundsvidenskaben. Et kort blik på den anerkendelsesteoretiske fornyelse af kritisk teori (Axel Honneth) bidrager til præciseringen.
 
 ENGELSK ABSTRACT:
 Niels Albertsen: Justification, Ideology, Critique
 
 The aim of this article is threefold. The first task is to explicate the connections between the concepts of justification, ideology and critique in Luc Boltanski’s and Ève Chiapello’s magnum opus, The New Spirit of Capitalism. The second is to elucidate the relationship between sociology of critique and critical sociology. In the1980-90s Boltanski argued that critical sociology, which approaches social actors critically in search of “hidden“ explanations “behind their backs“, should be replaced by sociology of critique, which investigates the critical competencies of the social actors themselves. In The New Spirit of Capitalism, however, critical sociology shows up again. How consistent is this move? The third aim is to clarify Boltanski’s and Chiapello’s theoretical position by confronting it with Marxist conceptions of ideology and critique (Karl Marx and Slavoj Žižek) and with actor-network theory (Bruno Latour). A quick look at Axel Honneth’s recognition-oriented renewal of critical theory further contributes to the clarification. The main conclusion is that sociology of critique has helped reformulate critical sociology as pragmatic critique, as critical sociology of critique that does not operate with deep, transcendent foundations. 
 
 Key words: Justification, ideology, critique, Boltanski, Latour, Žižek.

In our modern world electoral sociology, which is under constant scrutiny by the general public, as well as members of the media, in many ways shapes the image of sociology as a scientific discipline. Today sociology is often represented by media reports about the results of public opinion polls on the subject of politics and electoral affairs. Meanwhile a certain other trend is apparent: the high expectations imposed on electoral studies, as well as on their verifiability and efficiency, encourage the further development of sociological research and sociology in general. Scientific studies on electoral processes are defined by the convergence of various schools and paradigms of research, which implies an overlapping of different approaches and methods. This article presents the stages of electoral sociology’s development, from “straw polls” to contemporary theories of electoral behavior (the straw poll stage, electoral sociology in the 1930’s and 1940’s, ecological analysis in electoral sociology, the behavioral approach, the sociological theory on electoral behavior, the socio-psychological theory of electoral behavior, the theory of instrumental rationality), which in modern electoral sociology are known as “post-Gallup” theories. The author reveals the main characteristics of each stage of modern electoral sociology’s development, while highlighting its achievements and value, and giving a comprehensive analysis of modern theories of electoral behavior, with regards to issues located on the line between political sociology and sociology of law. Among these issues special consideration is given to elections as a political phenomenon, the political culture and political attitudes of the electorate, features of voting systems, political mechanisms and electoral technologies.

Este artigo, ora republicado pela Revista Brasileira de Sociologia, saiu originalmente na Revista Brasileira de Ciências Sociais da Faculdade de Ciências Econômicas (FaFi) da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, no volume II, nº 1 de março de 1962. Trata-se do discurso de abertura do II Congresso Brasileiro de Sociologia, realizado em Belo Horizonte no dia 12 de março, pelo seu presidente, Florestan Fernandes.O II congresso da SBS estava programado para se realizar em 1956, mas por questões de cunho político e institucional, só conseguiu se efetivar oito anos após o primeiro. A diretoria eleita em 1962 foi atropelada pelo golpe civil-militar de 1964 que desarticulou a SBS.O III congresso, de reorganização, realizou-se apenas 25 anos depois, em 1987, num contexto de redemocratização e expansão institucional da formação e da pesquisa no país. Em sua abertura, Gabriel Cohn retomou o texto de Florestan, destacando os novos desafios da disciplina em “A Sociologia como interrogação”, agora com os novos desafios colocados numa sociedade que se modernizou rapidamente sem mexer, contudo, na estrutura das desigualdades sociais que, ao invés de diminuírem, aumentaram.Apesar das grandes mudanças na sociedade brasileira nestes últimos 58 anos, o texto de Florestan apresenta uma atualidade desconcertante. Argumenta que a adoção dos critérios de cientificidade na produção do conhecimento não estão dissociados de um determinado padrão de civilização e destaca um horizonte cultural sufocante e um forte irracionalismo “ligados à herança cultural pré-científica, ou de complexo jogo dos interesses sociais que limitam o aproveitamento dos dados e das descobertas da ciência às conveniências de manipulação do poder pelas camadas sociais dominantes, sejam elas quais forem”. As sociedades humanas não passam por um processo evolutivo, linear. A expansão da racionalidade e do conhecimento científico estão sujeitos de forma permanente a tensões e conflitos com fatores irracionais e retrógrados presentes na sociedade e o avanço da ciência depende da consolidação da ordem social democrática. Sociologia é o conhecimento crítico dos fenômenos sociais e, sem liberdade, esse conhecimento não prospera. O ano era 1962, mas em 2021, nosso horizonte está marcado pelas sombras do obscurantismo, do reacionarismo político, social e cultural. Os tempos sombrios estão de volta.Ao lado dessa percepção preocupante do contexto vivido, outras questões são explanadas no texto vinculadas à formação, ao ensino e à atuação do sociólogo, evidenciando uma disciplina então em processo de afirmação, mas indicando desafios ainda a serem enfrentados. A maior parte delas, ainda está presentes nos debates da sociologia brasileira, exigindo sua releitura para melhor qualificar esses debates. Um texto se torna clássico pela perenidade das questões que sugere. Este texto evidencia essa condição.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The essay reviews three books that were published consecutively in the last three years, and argues that they represent an important shift in sociology that could potentially reconfigure the discipline and the discipline’s theoretical canon. This is because these books make the modern experience of European empires, colonialism, and, in many instances, incomplete decolonization central to sociology. They also question the discipline’s origin narratives and these narratives’ implications in colonial modernity. Thus, the books hold up a mirror reflecting back onto the discipline of sociology its own implication in European empires and colonization and demonstrate how sociology’s imperial episteme continues to shape the discipline today. This article reviews these books and focuses on how they engage in the double task of the deconstruction of sociology’s complicity in empire and the construction of a colonial critique-centered sociology. This is a sociology, the essay argues, which is invested in analyzing structural relations of power in view of the legacies of empire and colonialism. It is also one that asks questions relevant to contemporary realities for the purposes of effecting political change in the world.

Escola e família constituem duas instituições sociais centrais das nossas sociedades. A família, de algum modo, sempre o foi. A escola, porém, constitui ainda hoje uma miragem para muitos (incluindo crianças), quando pensada à escala planetária. Famílias e escolas têm vindo, assim, a ser objecto de crescente atenção por parte das ciências sociais, dando, desde há cerca de um século, origem a ramos especializados (história e sociologia da família, história e sociologia da educação, por exemplo). A interface escola-família demorou mais algum tempo a tornar-se objecto de estudo, mas as últimas décadas têm trazido a lume excelentes contributos para a sua análise, sobretudo por parte das ciências da educação, em particular por mão da sociologia.Palavras-chave: escola e família, sociologia da família, sociologia da educaçãoAbstractAssociations of Parents, Interculturality and Sociological division: Some questionsSchool and family represent two central social institutions in our societies. Family, to a certain extent, has always had this role. School, on the other hand, is still today a mirage for many (including children), when the planetary scale is considered. Thus, for almost a century, families and schools have received more attention from social sciences, giving origin to specialized subjects, such as family history and sociology, the history and sociology of education. The school-family interface took longer to become a subject of study, although excellent contributions which have analysed it have been studied over the last decades, especially in education science, and particularly sociology.

Abstract This article is an analysis of differences and similarities between four Englishlanguage journals on rural sociology. The comparison covered topics discussed in about 600 articles published in the journals in the years 1995-2010 and the regional affiliation of their authors. In the comparison, all articles and texts on empirical research published in this period in Eastern European Countryside were considered. In total, 141 texts were published in this annual journal. Out of the three other journals (Rural Sociology, Sociologia Ruralis, Journal of Rural Studies) 50 articles for each of three periods: 1995-1996, 2002-2003, 2008-2009, were selected. Results of the comparison show that the journals have strictly regional profiles, and that present rural sociology does not seem to be the science on social phenomena in world-wide rural areas. Rural sociology used in the four studied journals does not develop the knowledge that would be useful in solving problems of the rural population. In the three journals under study (Rural Sociology, Sociologia Ruralis, Journal of Rural Studies) almost exclusively sociology of rural areas in Western Europe and Northern America was developed, and their contributors were almost always authors from the two regions. The fourth journal - Eastern European Countryside - was concerned, adequately to its title, with rural phenomena in Central and Eastern Europe

The ability to make forecasts about events is a goal favored by the so-called exact sciences. In sociology and other social sciences, the forecast, although often sought after, is not likely to be realized unconditionally. This article seeks to problematize and discuss the connection between sociology and forecast. The object of study of sociology has particular features that distinguish it from other scientific fields, namely facts and social situations, which deal with trends; the systems of belief of social scientists and policymakers that can influence the attempt to anticipate the future; the dissemination of information and knowledge produced by sociology and other social sciences, which have the potential to change reality and, consequently, to call into question their capacity for the social forecast. These principles pose challenges to sociology’s heuristic potentials, making the reflection on these challenges indispensable in the scientific approach to social processes.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Responding to the growing gap between the sociological ethos and the world we study, the challenge of public sociology is to engage multiple publics in multiple ways. These public sociologies should not be left out in the cold, but brought into the framework of our discipline. In this way we make public sociology a visible and legitimate enterprise, and, thereby, invigorate the discipline as a whole. Accordingly, if we map out the division of sociological labor, we discover antagonistic interdependence among four types of knowledge: professional, critical, policy, and public. In the best of all worlds the flourishing of each type of sociology is a condition for the flourishing of all, but they can just as easily assume pathological forms or become victims of exclusion and subordination. This field of power beckons us to explore the relations among the four types of sociology as they vary historically and nationally, and as they provide the template for divergent individual careers. Finally, comparing disciplines points to the umbilical chord that connects sociology to the world of publics, underlining sociology's particular investment in the defense of civil society, itself beleaguered by the encroachment of markets and states.

The theme of the 2008 meeting of the Association for Applied and Clinical Sociology was “Engaging Sociology: Applied Sociology's Past, Present, and Promise.” The theme suggests that applied sociology has a past that is different from the parent discipline of sociology, and given how the history of sociology has come to be taught and remembered, that is an understandable suggestion. The argument of this paper, however, is that the discipline of sociology itself—as it is actually practiced today—originated mainly in applied work, in the work of nineteenth century social reformers whose contributions to the field have been largely forgotten, people such as Francis Galton, Adolphe Quetelet, and Charles Booth. These, I argue, are the Founding Fathers of the discipline as I have practiced it for the past thirty-five years.

This article addresses the issue of constructing childhood sociologically. Classical sociology focused on the transformation of children into reliable adult social actors, namely on the process of socialization. In contrast, the sociology of childhood, as a relatively young branch of the discipline, is sensitive to the place of children in society. Therefore, the sociology of childhood explores the very idea of the child rather than treats the child as a being with a relatively determined trajectory. The article presents sociology’s conceptual base and its different approaches to the child. In particular, the central concepts of the childhood sociology are outlined and critically discussed.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article is about the future of sociology, as transformations in the digital and biological sciences lay claim to the discipline’s jurisdictional hold over ‘the social’. Rather than analyse the specifics of these transformations, however, the focus of the article is on how a narrative of methodological crisis is sustained in sociology, and on how such a narrative conjures very particular disciplinary futures. Through a close reading of key texts, the article makes two claims: (1) that a surprisingly conventional urge towards disciplinary reproduction often animates accounts of sociology’s crisis; (2) that, even more surprisingly, these same accounts are often haunted by a hidden metaphorical architecture centred on biology, vitality, vigour and life. The central gambit of the article is that, perhaps in spite of itself, this subterranean image of life actually hints at less reproductively conventional ways of understanding – and intervening in – sociology’s methodological ‘crisis’. Drawing, empirically, on the author’s recent work on urban stress and, theoretically, on Stefan Helmreich’s (2011, 2016) account of ‘limit biologies’, the articles ends with a call for a ‘limit sociology’ – a form of attention that could, similarly, expand rather than contract the present moment of transformation. At the heart of the article is a hope that thinking with such a limit may help sociologists to imagine a less deadening future than that on offer from a canonised discipline cathected by endless crisis-talk.

 ABSTRACT: This reflection is based on the contribution of the discipline of Sociology, for the citizen education of high school students in the Regional Education Coordination of Canoinhas / SC, from the perspective of the teachers. It can be highlighted that, from the insertion of Sociology in the school curriculum, its bias is linked to citizen formation. In this way, we sought to research the contribution of sociological knowledge in citizen education, leading to the formulation of the following research problem: to what extent the Sociology classes, from the schools of the Regional Coordination of Education in Canoinhas / SC, are collaborating with the citizen education of their students, from the teachers' point of view ?. Regarding the methodology, qualitative research was chosen, with field research and application of questionnaires open to teachers of the discipline of Sociology of the 19 state schools of the Regional Coordination of Education of Canoinhas. It is concluded that the Sociology classes of the Regional Education Coordination of Canoinhas / SC are collaborating with the citizen formation, highlighting the potential in sociological knowledge. Among the potentialities can be presented: the formation of critical thinking, understanding of rights and duties, understanding of society and citizen formation. Sociology classes play a decisive role in the education of students, especially with a view to education for citizenship.
 Keywords: Potentialities. Citizen formation. Sociology teaching. Citizenship.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Critical thinking is often presented as a generic technique. This article develops an alternative that links critique more closely to the sociological perspective. I suggest three answers to the above question: that the sociological perspective is critical for comprehending complex issues, that all sociology is implicitly critical by virtue of its debunking tendency, and that some sociology is explicitly critical by virtue of value commitments that lead to a critique of domination. The article identifies some basic themes of what it means to think sociologically, discusses sociology's “double critique” in more detail, illustrates the critical potential of scientific, humanistic and critical approaches to sociology, and explores some implications of this approach for how we teach sociology. It concludes by suggesting that the goal of fostering critical thinking in our students might better be met by returning to the critical roots of our own discipline.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article expands on my presidential address to further bolster the case that sociology has, from its inception, been engaged in social justice. I argue that a critical review of our discipline and our Association’s vaunted empiricist tradition of objectivity, in which sociologists are detached from their research, was accomplished by a false history and sociology of sociology that ignored, isolated, and marginalized some of the founders. In the past half-century, scholar-activists, working-class sociologists, sociologists of color, women sociologists, indigenous sociologists, and LGBTQ sociologists have similarly been marginalized and discouraged from pursuing social justice issues and applied research within our discipline. Being ignored by academic sociology departments has led them to create or join homes in interdisciplinary programs and other associations that embrace applied and scholar-activist scholarship. I offer thoughts about practices that the discipline and Association should use to reclaim sociology’s social justice tradition.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This qualitative study explores how sociology is legitimated among established Finnish and Swedish sociology professors, who are conceived as a scientific elite. Drawing on a Bourdieusian framework, the analysis traces the discourses that define legitimate sociology in these two national contexts, and the relations between those discourses. While the scientific elite of Finnish and Swedish sociology share four discourses – the Excellence, Humboldtian, Emancipatory and Policy discourses – the relative value of each differs between the different national contexts. The Excellence discourse dominates in the Finnish data, while the Humboldtian discourse is dominant in the Swedish data. The emphases on the other two discourses also vary: in Finnish interviews, the Policy discourse holds a strong position, while the Emancipatory discourse is articulated only with nostalgia; in Swedish interviews, the Emancipatory discourse is strong and the Policy discourse is weak. The results show that different national contexts produce variations in sociology’s internal dynamics.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The paper argues that if imagination is paramount for sociology’s status and if literary intuition is a source of such imagination, we should rethink the value of literary insight for social analyses. It reviews the changing relationship between literature and sociology and shows how sociology can draw from literature as a starting point for understanding the social world and a way of invigorating sociological imagination. By framing the digital age as a current moment of change that has reconfigured the relation between sociology and literature, it illuminates the impact of challenges faced by both sociology and literature. It argues for the validity of literature for sociological use in the digital future and calls for more reflection on the utility and scope of the linkage. It asserts the literary inspired way of doing sociology, which takes advantage of the chance provided by the e-revolution, is one of ways forward for sociology.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The works of Pierre Bourdieu contribute to the establishment of a true sociology of culture and open prospects for the sociology of sport. A review of the genesis of this sociology shows that it has been constructed through breaks with French sociology’s way of approaching culture in the 1960s. The presentation of some of Bourdieu’s concepts is intended to show how they illuminate the social coherence of cultural behaviors and how the latter fit together. Finally, the paper emphasizes the relevance of such cultural analyses for those who study the social uses of the body, sport culture, or physical education.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Denne artikel tager afsæt i en kritik af sociologiske studier af vold, der peger
 på kulturelle og sociale baggrundsvariable, når voldelige gerninger skal forklares.
 Disse studier analyserer sjældent volden som en kompleks og mangefacetteret
 social handling, der kalder på teoretiske forklaringer. Som et
 delvist svar på denne forsømmelse introduceres til den franske sociolog Luc
 Boltanskis »tilnærmede udkast« til en handlingsteori om vold, som er en del
 af en større handlingssociologi, der præsenteres i bogen Love and Justice as
 Competences. Der peges dog på et grundlæggende konceptuelt problem i Boltanskis
 udkast til en teori om vold, som forsøges afhjulpet ved at integrere en
 fænomenologisk distinktion mellem henholdsvis lokativ, raptiv og autotelisk
 vold heri. Hensigten er at rekonstruere grundlaget for en pragmatisk sociologi
 om vold – funderet i en distinktion mellem (først og fremmest) voldens
 fysiske former. Formålet med denne rekonstruktion er at gøre fransk pragmatisk
 sociologi anvendelig i studiet af situationer, hvor vold spiller en rolle.
 Herved åbnes op for sociologisk analyse af en handlingsform, som har været
 tildelt sparsom opmærksomhed i sociologien.
 
 
 ENGELSK ABSTRACT
 
 Mikkel Kronborg Jønck:
 
 Towards a pragmatic sociology of physical violence
 
 This article begins with a critique of a number of sociological studies of violence
 that use cultural or social background variables as primary explanations
 for the causes of violence. Sociological studies of violence rarely analyze
 violence itself or violent situations as complex and multifaceted social actions
 that need to be theorized. As a partial response to this lack of theory, the article
 presents the French sociologist Luc Boltanski’s »approximated outline« of a
 theory of violence from the book Love and Justice as Competences. However, the
 article identifies a fundamental conceptual problem in Boltanski’s approach,
 and offers a suggestion for overcoming it by integrating a phenomenological
 distinction between locative, raptive and autotelic violence. The article attempts
 to reconstruct the foundation of a pragmatic theory of violence based,
 first and foremost, on a distinction between three physical forms of violence.
 The purpose of this reconstruction is to render French pragmatic sociology
 useful in studies of situations in which violence is present, and to encourage
 studies of a form of action that has largely been neglected by sociology.
 
 Keywords: Luc Boltanski, violence, French pragmatic sociology, Jan Philipp Reemtsma.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The aim of the paper is to review the current Canadian debate about the future of sociology, centered on two sets of claims: William Carroll’s vision for a transdisciplinary future of the social science and humanities (i.e. the transdisciplinarity argument) (Carroll 2013); and Antony J. Puddephatt & Neil McLaughlin’s counter-vision for a sociology bound by its traditional disciplinary boundaries (i.e. the traditionalism argument) (Puddephatt and McLaughlin 2015). The paper provides an analysis of the debate in question and argues that Carroll’s and Puddephatt & Neil McLaughlin’s reflexive diagnostics regarding the future of sociology offer two distinct, and competing, understandings of the discipline’s nature, purpose and relevance, as well as two different sensibilities regarding an audience the discipline of sociology is, or ought to be, speaking to. In addition, an argument put forth is that Carroll’s public-political and Puddephatt & McLaughlin’s professional-organizational models of sociology have important implications both for mapping out the future trajectories of the discipline, and for gauging sociology’s role and position within, and relationship to, the ‘universe’ of society.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Sociology has been curiously silent about the concept of luck. The present article argues that this omission is, in fact, an oversight: An explicit and systematic engagement with luck provides a more accurate portrayal of the social world, opens potentially rich veins of empirical and theoretical inquiry, and offers a compelling alternative for challenging dominant meritocratic frames about inequality and the distribution of rewards. This article develops a framework for studying luck, first by proposing a working definition of luck, examining why sociology has ignored luck in the past, and making the case for the value of including luck in sociology’s conceptual repertoire. The article then demonstrates the fertile research potential of studying luck by identifying a host of research questions and hypotheses pertaining to the social construction of luck, the real effects of luck, and theoretical interventions related to luck. It concludes by highlighting the distinctive contributions sociology can make to the growing interdisciplinary interest in this topic.
