Itsthirty-four chapters review advances and current trends,relatethem to the international discussion and point out challenges and perspectivesfor future research. As the variety of topics shows, the contributions to this volume span the entire rangeofsociological research areas that address pressingquestions both theoretically and empirically. With this special issue of the SOZIOLOGISCHEREVUE,the onlyGerman-language sociological review journal, we want to give international readers some insight into the sociological discussions in German-speaking countries—that is, Germany, Austria, and parts of Switzerland—and familiarize them with the discussions that are still largely conductedinthe German language. We believethat many aspects of these discussions are of interest to an international audience as well and that knowledge about the wider context of the history of ideas in which the German-languagedebate is embedded and how it has evolvedovertime will not onlyenhance mutual under- standing but might alsostimulate and fertilize the broader international debate. In the following,wewill first brieflyaddress some characteristics of the German- languagesociological discourse and its historical background. Second, we will ad- dress the question why, despite the increasing internationalization of German- speakingacademia, asubstantial part of the sociological discussion is still being conducted in the German language. Finally, we provide the reader with some guidance on what to expectinthe articles to follow and offer some tips on how to navigate this volume. 1IsThere a “German-Language Sociology”? When we approachedthe experts who contributed to this volume, we asked them to review the research literature and the discussion in German-languagesociologyin their fields of expertise over the last 15 to 20 years. Specifically, we asked them to identify the defining features of the discussion in these fields and relatethem to the international debate. Are there specific topics or certain perspectivesthat are char- acteristic of the German-languageacademic discussion?What have been the partic- ular advances duringthis period?Are there areas in which the discussion is perhaps lagging behind?Are therespecific highlights or “selling points” unique to the dis- cussion in German-languagesociologyand,ifso, what specificallyhavethey yielded in terms of our understandingofthe respective topic? Despite stark differences among the different sociological fields, we can identify some features that are widelyshared among much of the German-speakingsocio- logical community.

While Gal- tung sawthe “saxonic” style as being characterized by aprimarilyempirical, strongly data-drivenapproach that is less theory oriented, he perceivedthe “teutonic” style as being marked by astrongerfocus on theory-building and analysis of the underlying paradigms.Although this characterization maybeabit stereotypical, it underlines the fact that German-languagesociologyhas strongroots in Geisteswissenschaften (hu- manities) and idealism. As Alvin Gouldnerpointed out,German social science “developedout of adi- alecticbetween Romanticism and science” (Gouldner,1973: 93). This tension between Geisteswissenschaften and science,between idiographic hermeneutic traditions and nomographic deductive science can be found in the works of the classics, such as Karl Marx, GeorgSimmel, and Max Weber,and has been aleitmotif in German-language sociologyeversince—with times of more or less “peaceful co-existence” and phases of fiercedebates,such as the Popper–Adorno controversy (the so-called Positivis- musstreit [positivism dispute]) in the early1960s (Adorno, 1969). Beyond these theoretical and intellectual roots thatextend far back in time, the political and social upheavals of the 20th century left their imprint and continue to influenceGerman-languagesociologystilltoday. During the Nazi regime,manyso- ciologists fled Germanyand Austria and frequentlywent into exile in the United States,wherethey became influential members of the sociological community, amalgamatingGerman traditions with the US-American style of sociological work. The year 1945marked ahistorical break that motivated many students to study sociologywho later went on to shape the development of the discipline (cf. Fleck, 1996;Bolteand Neidhardt, 1998). As Heinz Bude and Friedhelm Neidhardtdescribein avolume that contains autobiographical memoriesofsociologists of this generation, born in the 1920s, these young people sought to understand this dramatic societal discontinuity, “whereinsome respects everything wasdifferent,but in other respects much remained the same. The politics, the economy, or the lawhad changed radically, but,ifthey had survived, the people in their families, in their neighborhoods, or in the conversations on the corner werebasicallythe sameasbefore” (Bude and Neidhardt, 1998:407;our translation). This younggeneration of sociologists,such as Ralf Dahrendorf, Renate Mayntz, or ErwinK.Scheuch, was generallyvery skeptical of ‘grand theory,’ and was characterized aboveall by astrongorientation towards em- pirical research,inmanycases promoted and intensified by research stays in the US (Bolteand Neidhardt, 1998). According to Fiedler,the “teutonic” intellectual stylecan also be found in Eastern Europe and Rus- sia (2012). ACompaniontoGerman-LanguageSociology 3 The next generation, in the late 1960s, was inspired by aglobalstudent move- ment,which in West Germanywas characterized by adeeplyfelt moralindignation about the ways that the German mainstream had dealt with its Nazi past.Thisgen- eration connected with the work of exiled scholars—both thosestill in the US and those who had returned—and revivedaninterest in theory,especiallyinthe works of Marx, the critical Frankfurt School, and Freudian psychoanalysis.Inspired by the ‘new social movements,’ the expansion of the higher-educational system, and abroad, enduringcultural change,

  • The Intermediate World: a Key Concept in Beautiful Thinking
    Open Philosophy 2018; 1: 50–58 Dorthe Jørgensen* The Intermediate World: A Key Concept in Beautiful Thinking https://doi.org/10.1515/opphil-2018-0005 Received February 28, 2018; accepted April 25, 2018 Abstract: The term ‘the intermediate world’ is a key concept in Den skønne tænkning (Beautiful Thinking) and the metaphysics of experience presented by this book. The metaphysics of experience is about the experiences of transcendence and beautiful thinking that take place in the intermediate world. In the article “The Intermediate World,” this subject is introduced through a discussion of thoughts and concepts formulated by Paul Klee (Zwischenwelt), Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten (beautiful thinking), Aristotle (phantasia), Immanuel Kant (expanded thinking), Mark C. Taylor (imagination), and Eugenio Trías (the limit). The text depicts the intermediate world as the level of experience at which the understanding does not yet distinguish between subject and object. The intermediate world is thus not a realm between human and world, nor is it something outside the world we know. The intermediate world is rather the present world in its most original state: the ‘place’ where we find the source of all experience and cognition, a source called ‘basic experience’ characterized by sensation, faith, and comprehension. In this realm, imagination is active and takes the form of an objective force rather than a subjective mental power. Imagination opens mind and world, thus allowing not-yet- actualized possibilities to become perceivable. Keywords: experience, metaphysics, Klee, aesthetics, imagination, Baumgarten, sensitivity, Trías, limit, thinking 1 Introduction The expression ‘beautiful thinking’ derives from §1 in Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten’s Aesthetica.

  • Beyond Social Democracy in West Germany?
    BEYOND SOCIAL DEMOCRACY IN WEST GERMANY? William Graf I The theme of transcending, bypassing, revising, reinvigorating or otherwise raising German Social Democracy to a higher level recurs throughout the party's century-and-a-quarter history. Figures such as Luxemburg, Hilferding, Liebknecht-as well as Lassalle, Kautsky and Bernstein-recall prolonged, intensive intra-party debates about the desirable relationship between the party and the capitalist state, the sources of its mass support, and the strategy and tactics best suited to accomplishing socialism. Although the post-1945 SPD has in many ways replicated these controversies surrounding the limits and prospects of Social Democracy, it has not reproduced the Left-Right dimension, the fundamental lines of political discourse that characterised the party before 1933 and indeed, in exile or underground during the Third Reich. The crucial difference between then and now is that during the Second Reich and Weimar Republic, any significant shift to the right on the part of the SPD leader- ship,' such as the parliamentary party's approval of war credits in 1914, its truck under Ebert with the reactionary forces, its periodic lapses into 'parliamentary opportunism' or the right rump's acceptance of Hitler's Enabling Law in 1933, would be countered and challenged at every step by the Left. The success of the USPD, the rise of the Spartacus move- ment, and the consistent increase in the KPD's mass following throughout the Weimar era were all concrete and determined reactions to deficiences or revisions in Social Democratic praxis. Since 1945, however, the dynamics of Social Democracy have changed considerably.

DESCRIPTORS Educational History; English Curriculum; English Instruction; Higher Education; *Intellectual History; *Rhetorical Theory; *Writing (Composition); *Writing Instruction IDENTIFIERS *Classical Rhetoric; *Composition Theory; Historical Background; Poststructuralism ABSTRACT Based on the idea that an individual cannot understand literature, philosophy, or rhetoric without knowing the field's historical content, this book traces the evolution of the growing and ever-changing field of composition/rhetoric through numerous schools of thought, including Platonism, Aristoteleanism, New Criticism, and the current poststructuralism. After a discussion of the main themes of classical rhetoric, the book offers a historical analysis of the rhetoric of 18th and 19th centuries, focusing briefly on the works of George Campbell, Hugh Blair, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Ralph Waldo Emerson. The book divides the current field of composition/rhetoric into five categories: current-traditio:. 1 rhetoric, romantic rhetoric, neo-classical rhetoric, new rhetoric, and new stylistics. An entire chapter in the book is devoted to the work of I. A. Richards and Kenneth Burke. The final chapter of the book offers an analysis of poststructuralism influence on composition--discussing New Criticism, deconstruction, feminist criticism, and postmodernism.
