Planung und Sozialwissenschaften.
Man versteht die Veränderungen des Feldes der Sozial wissenschaften nur in Zusammenhang mit den politischen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Entwicklungen von denen es abhängt. Verschiedene Reformen der Forschungsorganisation, die Entwicklung der Forschungsmittel und die Differenzierung der Finanzierungsformen drücken die Absicht aus, die Sozialwissenschaften enger an politische und verwaltungstechnische Probleme zu binden. Dieser Druck hat verschiedene Auswirkungen auf die Wirtschafts wissenschaften, die seit der Institutionalisierung des Planungssystems eng an die Wortschaftspolitik gebunden sind, und auf die Soziologie, die erst seit Beginn der 60er Jahre einer stärkeren sozialen Nachfrage ausgesetzt ist. Aber diese unterschiedliche Auswirkung auf die intellektuelle Entwicklung der Disziplinen erklärt sich vorerst durch ihre Position innerhalb des wissenschaftlichen Feldes : jener der Wirtschaftswissenschaften in der Nähe des politisch administrativen Pols, jener der Soziologie in der Nähe des intellektuellen Pols. Das starke Wachstum der Forschung während der 60er Jahre hat die Entwicklung der Wirtschaftswissenschaften in Forschungsinstitutionen im Umfeld der wirtschaftlichen und politische Machtzentren bestärkt. In der Soziologie hat dieses Wachsturn eine endgültige Lösung von den Mutterdisziplinen - Philosophie und Geschichte - ermöglicht (was durch die Entwicklung einer eigenen soziologischen Fachliteratur nachgewiesen werden kann). Aber die internen Konflikt liefern einen Hinweis auf einen politischen Konflikt, der auf lange Sicht ein Abgleiten der Disziplin in eine reine Hilfswissenschaft für die politische Verwaltung vorberei ten könnte. stitutionen im Umfeld der wirtschaftlichen und politische Machtzentren bestärkt In der Soziologie hat dieses Wacl turn eine endgültige Lösung von den Mutterdisziplinen Philosophie und Geschichte ermöglicht was durch die Entwicklung einer eigenen soziologischen Fachliteratur nachgewiesen werden kann Aber die internen Konflikt liefern einen Hinweis auf einen politischen Konflikt der auf lange Sicht ein Abgleiten der Disziplin in eine reine Hilfswissenschaft für die politische Verwaltung vorberei ten könnte

Concern over social scientists' inability to reproduce empirical research has spawned a vast and rapidly growing literature. The size and growth of this literature make it difficult for newly interested academics to come up to speed. Here, we provide a formal text modeling approach to characterize the entirety of the field, which allows us to summarize the breadth of this literature and identify core themes. We construct and analyze text networks built from 1,947 articles to reveal differences across social science disciplines within the body of reproducibility publications and to discuss the diversity of subtopics addressed in the literature. This field-wide view suggests that reproducibility is a heterogeneous problem with multiple sources for errors and strategies for solutions, a finding that is somewhat at odds with calls for largely passive remedies reliant on open science. We propose an alternative rigor and reproducibility model that takes an active approach to rigor prior to publication, which may overcome some of the shortfalls of the postpublication model.

Within the legal mobilization framework, sociolegal scholars identify elite support as a key indirect benefit of litigation. Court-centered strategies generate support from influential state and private actors, and this support helps a movement to achieve its goals. Instead of assuming elite support to be a decidedly positive step in a movement's trajectory, a more contextual analysis situates elite support as a complex, dynamic factor that movement advocates attempt to manage. Such support may at times create political and legal risks that jeopardize a movement's progress. My analysis of the marriage equality movement suggests a tentative typology with which to approach elite support: Elite support appears generally productive for a movement when it leads to action consistent with the movement's strategy. On the other hand, elite support may pose significant risk when it prompts action inconsistent with the movement's strategic plan, even if it is consistent with the movement's substantive positions.

AbstractWhile sociologists have paid a great deal of attention to how political elites matter for the emergence and development of social movements, they have focused less explicitly on how political elites matter for the culture of social movements. This essay reviews work that directly and indirectly addresses this relationship, showing how political elites matter for various aspects of movement culture, like collective identity and framing. It also reviews literature that suggests how movement culture comes to impact political elites. The essay concludes by drawing from very recent scholarship to argue that to best understand political elites and the culture of social movements, we need to think about culture and structure as intertwined and to understand how relations matters in the construction of meaning.

A Manager in Social Sciences. By Olivier Dumoulin. Fernand Braudel is most of the time admired for his style. But what if the essential part of his work were not inhis writings on history but in his enterprise as master builder ? O. Dumoulin shows the prominent role of thehistorian in the making of the historical French school a world famous institution.
