Le surgissement puis le déroulement de la crise actuelle ont replacé au premier plan la question des mutations techniques et industrielles. Ce peut être l'occasion pour l'économiste d'un renouvellement de ses interrogations : Quelle est la place de la technique dans les tendances économiques de longue période, en particulier l'alternance de phases de croissance puis de crise? Y répondre suppose non seulement que l'on utilise les théories forgées dans les années soixante mais que l'on élabore des constructions originales qui insèrent la technique dans un réseau de procédures et de règles de gestion. Ces recherches pourraient converger vers les notions de paradigme et de trajectoire socio-techniques. Par nature ce projet appelle des compétences multiples : sociologie du travail, histoire économique et sociale, théorie de la croissance et bien d'autres disciplines encore pourraient trouver de fructueux domaines de collaboration.

"Social scientists are often vexed because their work does not satisfy the criteria of "scientific" methodology developed by philosophers of science and logicians who use the natural sciences as their model. In this study, Paul Diesing defines science not by reference to these arbitrary norms delineated by those outside the field but in terms of norms implicit in what social scientists actually do in their everyday work."--Provided by publisher

About twenty-five years ago, the fields and methods of the different academic disciplines concerned with the study of man and his works, and the relations between these disciplines, were a favorite theme of discussion. At that time, the so-called social sciences were experiencing a spectacular expansion in scope simultaneously gaining depth through the constant refinement of their methods. Increasing division of labor in research focused attention on marginal areas, giving rise thereby to several new specialties which threatened to encroach upon already established disciplines. These sometimes heated discussions were, as a whole, a healthy sign of the progress made by the new science of man, which then went through the growing pains of its adolescence. They also meant a staking out of claims between professional groups, a search for new labels and standards, and a reshuffling and re-naming of college courses and text books. This process of reorientation resulted in the organizational structure within which both research and teaching in the American institutions of higher learning have been carried out ever since. Once the demarcation lines had been drawn, however, interest in problems pertaining to the logic of science decreased; and the scholars in the different fields settled down to putting in practice what had now been defined as their proper task.

Die Studie analysiert den Funktionswandel im Selbstverständnis der Sozialwissenschaften vor dem Hintergrund einer fortschreitenden Proliferation und Spezialisierung der Wissenschaften. Erörtert wird dabei die Frage, ob heute die Forderung nach einer Integration und Vereinheitlichung des fragmentierten Wissens noch machbar ist oder wir sie als eine "romantische Illusion" verabschieden sollten. Der Autor sucht unterhalb der Schwelle einer integrativen "grand theory" nach den Möglichkeiten der Vernetzung des Wissens durch interdisziplinäre Forschung und der Schaffung spezifischer institutioneller Arrangements in den Sozialwissenschaften, die interdisziplinäre Lernprozesse begünstigen. Von diesem Ansatz her erscheint das System der Sozialwissenschaften insgesamt als ein lernendes, umweltoffenes und adaptives System, das durch selbstorganisierende Mechanismen seine Identität und damit auch Anschlussmöglichkeiten durch Wissenstransfer wahrt.
