Der Band bietet einen Überblick über einige genuin französisch-sprachige Perspektiven der Sozial- und Gesellschaftstheorie, oder der Kultur- und Gesellschaftstheorie. Im Blick stehen dabei ebenso zentrale Traditionslinien des französischen soziologischen Denkens (in deren permanenter Reformulierung und Aktualisierung); wie auch jeweilige Neueinsätze soziologischen Denkens bis in die Gegenwart hinein. Im Vorhaben, differente französische soziologische Denkweisen sichtbar zu machen, blickt der Band zugleich über die Grenzen der Disziplin Soziologie hinaus: Theorien des Sozialen und von Gesellschaft entfalten sich ebenso in der französisch-sprachigen Soziologie, wie auch in der Philosophie; in den historischen Disziplinen; sowie in der Kultur- und Sozial-Anthropologie. In den einzelnen Beiträgen geht es je um die Theorieperspektive (und um deren Anschluss an, oder deren Opposition gegen andere Ansätze) sowie um die ihr entsprechenden gesellschaftsanalytischen Beiträge und Forschungen. Die Herausgeberin PD Dr. Heike Delitz lehrt Soziologische Theorie an der Universität Bamberg.

This volume focuses on the wider wellbeing costs within European countries as a result of the outbreak of the pandemic and the control measures implemented thereafter. In particular, it considers to what extent Covid-19 and measures taken to cope with the crisis have weakened economic and social structures across Europe and what effect this has had on people's lives. While many countries in Europe have reallocated public funding to health care, provided support to SMEs, vulnerable populations and regions hit by the crisis, the wellbeing or welfare costs, considered broadly, are still significant. The authors' assessment thus goes beyond the subjective wellbeing discourse and evaluates to what extent structural weaknesses within economic, social and regional frameworks have deepened. The chapters discuss what policies are needed to address these weaknesses. the volume thus recognises that structural inequalities are a key driver of wellbeing. While there have been a number of publications on wellbeing during the pandemic, the original perspective in each chapter on inequalities and the European focus of this publication provide novel information and insights on the topic. .
