Tillfälligt slut
This book explores the idea of civil society and how it is being implemented in Eastern Europe. The implosion of the Russian empire fifteen years ago and the new wave of democratization opened a new field of inquiry. The wide-ranging debate on the transition became focused on a conceptual battle, the question of how to define "civil society". Because totalitarian systems shun self-organization, real existing civil society barely existed East of the Elbe, and the emergence of civil society took unusually complex and puzzling forms, which varied with national culture, and reflected the deep historical past of these societies. This insightful text relates the concept of civil society and developments in Eastern Europe to wider sociological theories, and makes international comparisons where appropriate. It discusses particular aspects of civil society, and examines the difficulties of establishing civil society. It concludes by assessing the problems and prospects for civil society in Eastern Europe going forward.

Max Weber is widely regarded as the most important and influential figure in the history of the social sciences. Among other things, he wrote extensively on the methodology of the social sciences, but his writings on methodology are complex and are the subject of many conflicting interpretations.In this authoritative new book, Sven Eliaeson provides a comprehensive introduction to Weber's methodology and to the various ways it has been interpreted by subsequent scholars in Europe and the United States. Eliaeson shows how the vested interests of scholars have resulted in biased interpretations of Weber's work. Weber was preoccupied with the intellectual problems of his time and not with our current disciplinary crises. By placing Weber's thought and methodology in its historical context, Eliaeson is able to provide a masterly reconstruction of his central concerns while at the same time exploring the enduring relevance of Weber's work for sociology today.This book will be recognized as a definitive work on Weber's methodology and will be an indispensable text for students and scholars in sociology and the social sciences.

Karl Marx, Max Weber och Émile Durkheim är tre av 1900-talets mest betydelsefulla samhällstänkare. Deras teorier och analyser har påverkat såväl samhällsvetenskap och historia som filosofi och vetenskapsteori. I denna bok introduceras Marx’, Webers och Durkheims tänkande genom att de både placeras in i sin samtid och deras relevans i dag diskuteras. De biografier som inleder varje avsnitt placerar in tänkarna i ett 1800-talseuropa som befinner sig en i grundläggande och snabb omvandling. Under deras livstid övergick det gamla feodalsamhället till det nuvarande rationella industrikapitalistiska samhället. Genom att analysera och även jämföra Marx’, Webers och Durkheims teorier ställer författarna viktiga – och fortfarande aktuella – frågor som: Vad är staten? Hur hänger kapitalism samman med religion och etiska frågor? Vad innebär arbetsdelning?Boken vänder sig till studenter i sociologi och närliggande ämnen som ekonomisk historia, statsvetenskap, historia, företagsekonomi, idé- och lärdomshistoria, filosofi, psykologi och arbetsvetenskap. Men boken är givande även för alla som intresserar sig för vart den nuvarande samhällsutvecklingen är på väg.
