Soziologisch leben: Wissenschaft als Berufung und Beruf

When scientists do science, personal matters should take a back seat. Perhaps a little passion is allowed, but only for the cause. But despite their career, scientists remain persons with individual characteristics and inclinations. In this book, the author - a social scientist and professor of social policy - combines personal experiences, theoretical reflections and contemporary history to answer the question: How does one live as a sociologist? This way, he applies sociology to its practitioners. An inspiring work for anyone interested in the connection between theory and everyday life, especially young readers who want to become sociologists themselves.
