Books by Stephan Moebius
Band 1 des Handbuchs widmet sich dem Begriff der Kultur, der Kontextualisierung des Themenfeldes ‚Kultursoziologie‘ im interdisziplinären Umfeld, seiner Entwicklung und gegenwärtigen Ausformung in unterschiedlichen Weltregionen sowie zentralen kultursoziologischen Autor_innen.
Das Buch versteht sich als eine erste soziologiegeschichtliche Annäherung an dieses Thema. Es umfasst die Zeit von Königs Schweizer Exil Ende der 1930er Jahre bis zur erfolgreichen Institutionalisierung der Kölner Soziologie Mitte der siebziger Jahre. Im Mittelpunkt stehen Königs intellektueller Werdegang, seine Themenschwerpunkte, seine erste Schülerschaft sowie die Institutionalisierungsprozesse und Wirkungen der »Kölner Schule«.
