  • Philosophy of the Social Sciences Patrick Baert and Fernando Rubio Dominguez
    --Please do not quote or circulate without the authors’ permission. This version may differ from the final published version-- Philosophy of the Social Sciences Patrick Baert and Fernando Rubio Dominguez Published in “Philosophy of the Social Sciences”. In Turner, Brian (ed.) The Blackwell Companion to Social Theory. 3rd edition. Blackwell: Oxford, pp. 60-80 Introduction Compared to other subdivisions within philosophy (such as philosophy of mind and indeed philosophy of science), philosophy of the social sciences occupies a distinctive, and perhaps idiosyncratic position. Unlike most other strands, it does not enjoy a long heritage. Although a number of questions posed by philosophers of the social sciences clearly predate the modern era, the discipline as such cannot be traced back further than the nineteenth century, with its origins closely tied to the emergence and establishment of the social sciences themselves. Before then, philosophers might have reflected on the nature of social inquiry, but there was not a clearly distinguishable area of philosophy of the social sciences as such, nor was the need felt by philosophers or anyone else to carve one out. The appearance and formation of the social sciences within academic institutions during the nineteenth century led to widespread concerns (not just amongst philosophers and practising social researchers but also amongst other academicians) about the methodology and scientific legitimacy of these newly founded disciplines, which seemed to find themselves at the crossroads “between science and literature” (Lepenies 1988). The new disciplines, regarded with a mixture of enthusiasm, hope and suspicion, were in serious need of both academic recognition and methodological guidance.

If citing, you are advised to consult the published version for pagination, volume/issue and date of publication Legitimating Post-Fordism: A Critique of Anthony Giddens’ Later Works Anthony King Introduction Although Anthony Giddens describes his approach as “social” rather than “critical” theory, and although there is little obvious Frankfurt School influence in his writing, he believes “social theory is inevitably critical theory.”1 While he might aim at such a critical position, it is far from obvious that he succeeds. On the contrary, his later writings have become an apology for the status quo.2 Failing to consider his prejudices, perhaps because he thinks critique is inevitable, Giddens has increasingly vindicated predominant relations of domination. He celebrates the rise of post-traditional individuals, who have the freedom of choice to create and 1. Anthony Giddens, Profiles and Critiques in Social Theory (London: Macmillan, 1982), p. 15. 2. Patrick Baert argues that Giddens’ career comprises four periods: the first (the 1960s) includes his articles on suicide; the second (from the beginning to the middle of the 1970s) includes his writings on Marx, Durkheim and Weber; the third (from the middle of the 1970s until 1984 — the publication of the The Constitution of Society) includes his writ- ings on structuration theory; and the fourth includes everything published in the late 1980s and 1990s.

  • Final Program
    Final Program 100th Annual Meeting August 13-16, 2005 Philadelphia Marriott, Philadelphia Loews, and Philadelphia Downtown Courtyard by Marriott Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Comparative Perspectives, Competing Explanations Accounting for the Rising and Declining Significance of Sociology This is the centennial for the Association, so the meeting theme should be sufficiently expansive to address a wide historical sweep, and yet have sufficient focus to provide a framework in which to address key aspects of the social history of the discipline—its contemporary situation and its potential future development. Each of the three elements from the title “Comparative Perspectives, Competing Explanations” is designed to produce a fruitful meeting frame: First, the notion of “comparative perspectives” is itself “accordion-like” and can fit a number of purposes and goals. There is the international aspect, so that we can incorporate a comparison of American sociology with international developments. There is the internal evolution of perspectives inside of the United States, which would include the development and emergence of challenging and oppositional perspectives in the discipline, from the Society for the Study of Social Problems, to Sociologists for Women in Society, to the Association of Black Sociologists, to name but a few organizational manifestations of the challenges of the last half century. There are others that will surely surface from the general call. Second, there is the notion of “competing explanations.” Competing explanations

  • Science Conducted in Public Under Clandestine Attack
    Science Conducted in Public under Clandestine Attack Call for solidarity: The Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory in Belgrade is in danger The renowned Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory Belgrade (IFDT) has a long history of liberal thinking. Founded by dissident intellectuals expelled from the university for their involvement in the Yugoslav 1968 movement, it was, in the 1990s, at the forefront of the opposition to the policies of Slobodan Milošević. Zoran Đinđić, philosopher and the first Serbian head of government in the post-Miloševic era, who was assassinated while in power in 2003, had worked at this Institute for several years. The IFDT is now, it seems, to be put on a political leash. The Serbian government has appointed a new Governing Board that includes several highly controversial political figures. For example, Zoran Avramović, the nominated President of the Board, was promoted to official leading positions in the Ministry of Education by the right-wing Radical Party of Vojislav Šešelj (who was sentenced by the Hague Tribunal). Avramović has already intimated what he thinks of the institute when he urged for suspension of financing for the IFDT Regional Centre in Novi Sad. The current Acting Director uses repressive measures that indicate what the future of the institute will look like (threats to suspend salaries, attempts to curb the freedom of the Institute's Scientific Council, junior researchers put under pressure, international projects suspended, etc.). Democracy, and specifically the scientific and education landscape in Serbia, is increasingly under threat. There are few remaining free media. The current attempt to muzzle and perhaps even eliminate an autonomous academic institution like IFDT further weakens Serbian democracy.

People were using all kinds of tricks to needle through the eagle eye of the chastity belt of special duty policemen who had cut off the district and who were there to examine the invitation cards and tickets, because hundreds and thousands of forgeries were in circulation. (…) Others got themselves parachuted in by special plane. There were riots and fighting at Orly too to get on to the planes. (…) Others, in a desperate attempt, were trying to get in through the sewers. (…) The sewer rats took over from there. But nothing could dampen the spirits of these afficionados. (…) In the great hall on the ground floor (…) more and more people were gathering, and late-comers found they had to resort to standing on one foot at the back – the other being required to kick away any neighbours who got too close. (…) Heartre was getting ready to read his notes. An extraordinary radiance emanated from his ascetic athletic body and the throng, captivated by the overpowering charm of his slightest gesture, waited anxiously for the starting signal. Numerous were the cases of fainting due to intra-uterine exaltation which affected the female section of the audience in particular (…) Jean Pulse opened his mouth. (…) The

Rather than simply privileg- ing the internal analysis of ideas or external accounts of institutional structures, it publishes high quality studies that use the tools of the social sciences themselves to analyse the production, circulation and uses of knowledge in these disciplines. In doing so, it aims to establish Socio-­ Historical Studies of the Social and Human Sciences as a scholarly field in its own right, and to contribute to a more reflexive practice of these disciplines.

We, the American Sociological Association (ASA), acknowledge that academic institutions, indeed the nation-state itself, was founded upon and continues to enact exclusions and erasures of Indigenous Peoples. This acknowledgement demonstrates a commitment to beginning the process of working to dismantle ongoing legacies of settler colonialism, and to recognize the hundreds of Indigenous Nations who continue to resist, live, and uphold their sacred relations across their lands. We also pay our respect to Indigenous elders past, present, and future and to those who have stewarded this land throughout the generations.
