One of the greatest contributors to the field of Sociology, Jürgen Habermas has had a wide-ranging and significant impact on understandings of social change and social conflict. He has inspired researchers in a range of disciplines with his multidimensional social theory, however an overview of his theory in applied settings is long overdue. This collection brings together in one convenient volume a set of researchers who place Jürgen Habermas’ key concepts such as colonisation, deliberation and communication at the centre of their research methodologies. Full of insight and innovation, this book is an essential read for those who want to harness the potential of Habermas’ core concepts in their own work, thereby helping to bridge the gap between theory and method in social research. Structured around three core themes, Habermas and Social Research provides a range of research case studies looking at system colonization, the politics of deliberation and communicative interactions. Issues as diverse as social movements, the digital public sphere, patient involvement, migration and preschool education, are all covered in the book, intertwined with a set of innovative approaches to theory application in social research. Designed to help researchers harness the potential of Habermas’ core concepts as methodological tools, this timely volume will prove highly useful for graduate and upper level undergraduates within the fields of theory and method, research design, public policy, education policy, urban and environmental planning.

Cet ouvrage revient sur la querelle philosophique autour de la question de la modernité qui a été animée dans les années 1980. À cette époque, certains penseurs allemands se sont mis à critiquer la pensée française d'après 68 en la qualifiant de postmoderniste. Jürgen Habermas critiqua sévèrement la déconstruction derridienne et les disciples de Derrida aux États-Unis. Critiques auxquelles ce dernier répondit sans jamais consacrer une contre-critique directe à Habermas (comme s'il n'accordait pas beaucoup d'attention aux attaques du philosophe allemand)
