Beyond Fields, Networks, and Fame
This paper investigates the intellectual biography of the American philosopher and anthropologist Lawrence Krader (1919-1998) as a contribution to the sociology of intellectuals and history of ideas. We trace Krader's career trajectory to his intellectual self-concept, his scholarly and political worldviews, and his financial independence. Krader entertained a self-concept of a lone pioneer that led him to reject the competition for attention as …

Taking Lives
Life and death issues are uniquely fundamental, since they alone serve as a precondition for the examination of all other issues. Life and death questions move us beyond an abstract, formalist framework. This study gives substance to the social scientific imagination and demonstrates that the present underlying preoccupations of social research give scant consideration to basic issues of life and death, in favor of distinctly derivative ones.

Children of Privilege
The Social Compulsions of Ideas
This volume collects Gerard DeGrU's writings, spanning four decades of activity. From his thesis on the theory of semiotics in Sorokin and Spengler to his later writings drawing a sharp distinction between the sociology of knowledge and sociological theories of knowledge, DeGrU remains sensitive to the place of language in knowledge formation

Karl Korsch
Few NORTH AMERICAN STUDENTS of the history of the labour movement and socialism know very much about the life and work of Karl Korsch. Of course, many know of him ? as the 'poor cousin' of George Lukacs in the school of * Western Marxism' popularized by Maurice Merleau-Ponty, as a Frankfurt School tag-a-long, or as Bert Brecht's close friend and teacher. For historical and linguis tic reasons Korsch's work is better known in Germany (more accurat…

The Coming Crisis of Western Sociology
It comes as no surprise to the astute observer that academics on this continent are unable to cope with the ‘problems’ internal to their respective disciplines. Indeed, when attempts are made to intellectually grapple with these meta-theoretical issues, the effects are usually somewhat reminiscent of the catastrophes of U.S. foreign policy. The physical levelling of third world countries engaged in struggles for national liberation has its ideati…
