Une sociologie sans universaux ? Plaidoyer pour une approche taxinomique en sociologie

Pierre Tripier, A Sociology without Universals ? Towards a Taxinomic Approach in Sociology One of the endemic weaknesses of sociological analysis is to imitate indigenous sociologies, especially in the context of micro-sociological verification and macro-sociological explanation, while rejecting the value of these sociologies. In order to avoid this endemic weakness, taxinomies should be constructed on the basis of intermediary objects the common point of which would be the production, in a real group situated in very different space-times in which the relations, meeting points or existential similarities can be determined, of an implicit accord allowing organization, limiting the range of possibilities and guiding action
