Mientras que los conocimientos de casi todas las demás ciencias sociales —sociología,politología, lingüística, etc.— son poco o nada «útiles» (salvo para sus propiosprofesionales y el mercado editorial propiciado por ellos), en cambio gran parte de lasdisposiciones jurídicas y de la doctrina profesional aplicada a estas tienen toda suertede repercusiones reales para la vida de la gente en general. Mas esta utilidad prácticase compra al precio de que el derecho consiste en discursos cuyo rigor científico esmuy endeble. ; Knowledge produced in nearly all Social Sciences (Sociology, Political Science,Linguistics, etc.) is almost useless or useless at all —except for scientists themselvesor for their own publishing-market. On the contrary, legal precepts and the doctrineapplied to them bring about a large variety of real effects on the concrete life of allpeople. The price paid for that efficiency is having law built as a web of discourseswithout genuine scientific rigor.

In dem Methodenbericht wird die ALLBUS-Studie von 1982 in allen Phasen nachvollziehbar dargestellt. Zum Vergleich erfolgt einleitend eine stichwortartige Kurzbeschreibung der beiden ALLBUS-Hauptstudien von 1980 und 1982. Dann werden Vorbereitung und Durchführung der Untersuchung beschrieben, ebenso wie die Stichprobe und die Gewichtung. Die Darstellung endet mit der Analyse der Feldphase. Abschließend erfolgt ein internationaler Vergleich mit entsprechenden Studien aus den USA und den Niederlanden. (RW)

AbstractThe behavioral sciences were there at the beginning of the systematic study of climate change. However, in the ensuing quarter century, they largely faded from view, during which time public discourse and policy evolved without them. That disengagement and the recent reengagement suggest lessons for the future role of the behavioral sciences in climate science and policy. Looking forward, the greatest promise lies in projects that make behavioral science integral to climate science by: (1) translating behavioral results into the quantitative estimates that climate analyses need; (2) making climate research more relevant to climate-related decisions; and (3) treating the analytical process as a behavioral enterprise, potentially subject to imperfection and improvement. Such collaborations could afford the behavioral sciences more central roles in setting climate-related policies, as well as implementing them. They require, and may motivate, changes in academic priorities.

At several points over his career, Pierre Bourdieu articulated a framework for a sociology of science, derived mostly from a priori reasoning about scientific actors in competition for capital. This article offers a brief overview of Bourdieu's framework, placing it in the context of dominant trends in Science and Technology Studies. Bourdieu provides an excellent justification for the project of the sociology of science, and some starting points for analysis. However, his framework suffers from his commitment to a vague evolutionary epistemology, and from his correlative and surprising neglect of science's habituses, with their particular practices, boundaries, and political economies. To be productive, Bourdieu's sociology of science would have to abandon its narrow rationalism and embrace the material complexity of the sciences.
