When Auguste Comte (1839, p. 252) first coined the term ‘sociology’ he did not expect it to be so successful a discipline. Although of French origin, the term refers to many different disciplines in various parts of the world. Nowadays, for instance, sociology counts more students in England than in France (24,000 compared to 12,000) (Schnapper, 2005, p. 112). It seems that nowadays the clout and roots of sociology are clear and that the discipline, as is shown in this volume, is multifarious and covers a very wide range of subjects; from the sociology of religion to the sociology of economics. The success of sociology is now obvious, both intellectually and institutionally
