Check out what some members of our @highered_HU section are up to at the upcoming @DGSoziologie congress: @TimFenkner will present a paper on prophecy in Parsons' social theory at the session on history of sociology. Here's the abstract: https://t.co/yX5OGL16AB

This is a great, concisely annotated introduction for all sociologists who want to think (more deeply) about the role and structure of (good) sociological theory and how (not) to do it! https://t.co/zGbvvHvzao

How do power and methods interrelate? Andreas Schmitz and I have developed a heuristic framework across quantitative and qualitative approaches, establishing the power/method nexus as a challenge that concerns sociology as a whole. https://t.co/GyI8gWm73Y

@LordElend @cschmidtw @d_witte1 @MariaKeil10 Ein anderer Ansatz findet sich bei @c_schwemmer & @OliverWieczorek, die den Quanti/Quali-Divide in der Soziologie anhand automatisierter Textanalysen abbilden. Auch 'ne Art von Visualisierung einer Disziplin, nehme ich an: https://t.co/t79Y14zUcy

I'm writing a paper on the apparent withering (= lack of disciplinary significance) of grand theories in sociology nowadays. What do you think, why is there no new Luhmann/Bourdieu/Foucault etc coming up?
