Interdisciplinarity and Structural Threats to Critical Sociology: A Discussion Paper

Summary/Abstract: The text presents a view on the threats posed to sociology – especially critical sociology – by the structural changes in social sciences, which are legitimized by the growing importance of interdisciplinarity. As pointed out, it can be linked to the growing external pressures on social sciences as well as the associated competition between the various disciplines, which is currently increasing and in which sociology appears to be in a rather dominated position. The text pays particular attention to the dangers that sociology faces from the expansion of influences of social psychology. The processes under discussion heavily rely on the slogans of interdisciplinarity, as is the expansion of so-called ‘areas studies’ or ‘migration studies’ and other ‘studies’ that limit sociology’s autonomy and thus deepen its crisis.
