Abstract

"This book reintroduces the work of Robert K. Merton as a bridge between classical sociology and modern sociology. Founded in the sociological classics but developing a modern approach to the advancement of theory and research methodology, Merton's thought helped to construct modern sociology in its coverage of many of the social institutional areas of contemporary society. Recovering and analysing the system of 'structural analysis' which Merton progressively developed - a system largely overlooked by the tendency among commentators to stereotype him as a 'functionalist' - the author considers the applications of this approach to various substantive fields, particularly science and criminal justice, and examines the effect of Merton's later 'sociological semantics' on his overall schema. A clear and accessible presentation of the array of concepts introduced by Merton to sociology, Reintroducing Robert K. Merton will appeal to scholars and students with interests in sociological theory, social research, the history of sociology and the various substantive areas covered in the work of Merton - deviance, science, and communications"--

Abstract

Robert K. Merton (1910-2003) est une figure majeure de la sociologie étasunienne du XXe siècle. Durant sa carrière, il a contribué à de nombreux domaines de la sociologie (théorie, méthodologie, sociologie de la connaissance, des professions, des organisations, etc.), fondé la sociologie de la science, et marqué de son influence l'histoire de la discipline aux États-Unis, entre Harvard et Columbia University, ainsi que dans les pays où sa parole a porté. Si son nom reste attaché au courant « fonctionnaliste », dominant dans les années 1950-1960, il est également associé à des idées clés de la sociologie (« prophétie auto-réalisatrice », « théorie de moyenne portée », ethos de la science, etc.). Cet ouvrage offre une vue d'ensemble de l'œuvre de Merton. Les notions, les différents fronts de recherche et les centres d'intérêt scientifiques de l'auteur sont présentés. Ils le sont d'une façon dynamique, par la mise en perspective d'une démarche de connaissance, d'un « éclectisme discipliné », situé dans des contextes intellectuels.

Abstract

Offers a comprehensive perspective on knowledge production in the field of sociology. Moreover, it is a tribute to the scope of Merton's work and the influence Merton has had on the work and life of sociologists around the world. This is reflected in each of the 12 chapters by internationally acclaimed scholars witnessing the range of fields Merton has contributed to as well as the personal impact he has had on sociologists. This approach is in itself a tribute to Merton: an analysis of knowledge production through a contextualized review of an author's life-work – a quintessentially "Mertonian" enterprise.

Abstract

"Robert K. Merton (1910-2003) was one of the most influential sociologists of the twentieth century, producing clear theories and innovative research that continue to shape multiple disciplines. Merton's reach can be felt in the study of social structure, social psychology, deviance, professions, organizations, culture, and science. Yet for all his fame, Merton is only partially understood. He is treated by scholars as a functional analyst, when in truth his contributions transcend paradigm. Gathering together twelve major sociologists, Craig Calhoun launches a thorough reconsideration of Merton's achievements and inspires a renewed engagement with sociological theory. Merton's work addressed the challenges of integrating research and theory. It connected different fields of empirical research and spoke to the importance of overcoming divisions between allegedly pure and applied sociology. Merton realized the value of sociological methods that respect the institutional analysis of science and knowledge. By bringing together different aspects of his work in one volume, Calhoun illuminates the interdisciplinary& -and unifying& -dimensions of Merton's approach, while also advancing the intellectual agenda of an increasingly vital area of study."--BOOK JACKET.
