The paper provides an analysis of recent attempts in German sociology to understand obvious trends in contemporary society. There seems to be a huge demand for explaining uncertainties and discontent. However, the books by Habermas, Amlinger/ Nachtwey, Nassehi, Kaube/ Kieserling and Mau/ Lux/ Westheuser reviewed in this article produce widely divergent results and leave the main question open if there are real grounds for the feelings and sayings that Western societies are in an existential crisis.
