Framing Schmitt's Institutional Turn, Mont Pèlerin, and Ordoglobalism
Transnational History, Transnational Space, Transnational Law
In the 1990s academic marketplace, transnational history emerged in the wake of the sprouting of international history, global history, and postcolonial history as historical subject fields. Christ

Sustainable Community Movement Organizations: Solidarity Economies and Rhizomatic Practices
The chapter is intent on operationalizing an ensemble of new forms of social insertion in the wake of the Crisis of 2008. These are enduring new forms of embodied co-responsibility, resource pooling and stakeholder stewardship. Critically involved is the praxis of solidarity-based economy known as SCMOs – sustainable community movement organizations. What is projected and constituted discursively and economically is what Charles Tilly called a tr…
Abjection, Precarity and Populist Mood
Emergent democracy turns back upon itself, having—as Francisco Panizza puts it—internalized the alienating and oppressive weight of sovereign neoliberal global governmentality.1 To appreciate the p

Fabianism
Fabianism is a social democratic political ideology that is synonymous with gradualism. It has two characteristics: (1) avoiding direct confrontation with capital, while persistently wearing down capitalist hegemony; and (2) steering clear of doctrinal rigidity and dogmatic certainty concerning political ends. The term derives from the Fabian Society launched in London in 1884, after its namesake the Roman general Fabius known for his tactics of …
K ahn‐ F reund, O tto
Otto Kahn‐Freund, like Franz Neumann, developed a critical sociology of law alongside the emerging Frankfurt School. His focus was the study of self‐binding practices as social pacts, as autonomous social law. Kahn‐Freund – in a heuristic model he termed “collective laissez‐faire” – initially looked to labor law as an institutionalizing force in establishing economic democracy. However, he came to appreciate these pacts as accommodations out of c…

Retrieving civil society in a postmodern epoch
This article develops Jürgen Habermas' emphasis on critical theory as a means to retrieve the social and restore its place as a central concept in the social sciences. It argues that Habermas has been misinterpreted by varieties of thinkers across political, ideological, and intellectual domains; and has been misused by neoconservatives and postmodernists in particular. Habermas' critical theory is driven by an emphasis on social and political pr…

Corporatism and Disciplinary State
Cultural Marxism and Political Sociology
A thorough examination and analysis of the tensions between political sociology and the culturally oriented Marxism that emerged in the 60s and 70s is presented in this volume. In order to create a strikingly original synthesis, Weiner considers the work of theorists as diverse as Jurgen Habermas, Claus Offe, Alain Touraine, Anthony Giddens and Alvin Gouldner, many of whom fall ideologically outside the cultural Marxism movement
