| Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references (p. 261-265) and index 1. Introduction: problems of Structure and Action -- 2. Discovering truth: the rationalist way -- 3. Positive science: the empiricist way -- 4. Ants, Spiders and Bees: a third way? -- 5. Systems and functions -- 6. Games with Rational Agents -- 7. Understanding social action -- 8. Self and roles -- 9. Explaining and understanding -- 10. A value-neutral social science? -- 11. Rationality and relativism -- 12. Conclusion: two stories to tell This textbook by Martin Hollis offers an exceptionally clear and concise introduction to the philosophy of social science. It examines questions which give rise to fundamental philosophical issues. Are social structures better conceived of as systems of laws and forces, or as webs of meanings and practices? Is social action better viewed as rational behaviour, or as self-expression? By exploring such questions, the reader is led to reflect upon the nature of scientific method in social science. Is the aim to explain the social world after a manner worked out for the natural world, or to understand the social world from within? This new interdisciplinary textbook by Martin Hollis offers an exceptionally clear and concise introduction to the philosophy of social science. It unearths central philosophical problems underlying the standard ways of thinking about social institutions and social actions, leading the reader to reflect upon the nature of scientific method itself. Is the aim to explain the social world after the manner of the natural world, or to understand it from within? Writing in his characteristically clear and incisive prose, Martin Hollis reveals the crucial role to be played by philosophy in the study of the social sciences |

Rationality and relativism -- 12. Conclusion: two stories to tell This textbook by Martin Hollis offers an exceptionally clear and concise introduction to the philosophy of social science. It examines questions which give rise to fundamental philosophical issues. Are social structures better conceived of as systems of laws and forces, or as webs of meanings and practices? Is social action better viewed as rational behaviour, or as self-expression? By exploring such questions, the reader is led to reflect upon the nature of scientific method in social science. Is the aim to explain the social world after a manner worked out for the natural world, or to understand the social world from within? This new interdisciplinary textbook by Martin Hollis offers an exceptionally clear and concise introduction to the philosophy of social science. It unearths central philosophical problems underlying the standard ways of thinking about social institutions and social actions, leading the reader to reflect upon the nature of scientific method itself. Is the aim to explain the social world after the manner of the natural world, or to understand it from within? Writing in his characteristically clear and incisive prose, Martin Hollis reveals the crucial role to be played by philosophy in the study of the social sciences Ciencias humanas e sociais larpcal Sociologia (filosofia e teoria) larpcal Sociale wetenschappen gtt Wetenschapsfilosofie gtt Sciences sociales / Philosophie Einführung swd Philosophie swd Sozialwissenschaften swd Philosophie sociale ram sciences sociales rero Sozialwissenschaft / Sozialphilosophie / Philosophie / Theorie SOCIAL SCIENCE / Methodology bisacsh Social sciences / Philosophy fast Philosophie Sozialwissenschaften Wissenschaftstheorie Social sciences Philosophy Soziales Handeln (DE-588)4055759-5 gnd rswk-swf Sozialwissenschaften (DE-588)4055916-6 gnd rswk-swf Philosophie (DE-588)4045791-6 gnd rswk-swf Theorie (DE-588)4059787-8 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)4151278-9 Einführung gnd-content 2\p (DE-588)4123623-3 Lehrbuch gnd-content Sozialwissenschaften (DE-588)4055916-6 s Philosophie (DE-588)4045791-6 s 3\p DE-604 Theorie (DE-588)4059787-8 s 4\p DE-604 Soziales Handeln (DE-588)4055759-5 s 5\p DE-604 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=366240 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 5\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
