Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The seminar will reconstruct the methodological foundations of modern sociology as developed in the wake of German idealism and Geisteswissenschaften in the work of Dilthey, Simmel and Weber. It will focus on the epistemological and empirical discussions (Neokantianism, Historicism, Positivism) which guided Simmel's concept of sociological aprioris (individual, role, structure), but also Weber's concept of the ideal types of social action. The seminar will also discuss, how Weber's approach was further developed by Parsons -- who did not use ideal types, but systematic type-patterns -- and Schuetz who developed the most advanced and profound version of the ideal-type concept.
