Das gemeinsame epistemologische Ziel interpretativer Soziologie ist die Rekonstruktion von Sinn. Grundsätzliche interne Differenzen zeigen sich in der jeweiligen theoretischen Antwort auf die Frage, wo Sinn ursprünglich entsteht. Innerhalb der deutschen Soziologie haben sich translokale institutionelle Schwerpunkte der interpretativen Soziologie vor allem in Form a) der Arbeitsgruppe "Methoden der qualitativen Sozialforschung", b) der Sektion "Biographieforschung", c) der Sektion "Wissenssoziologie" (ehemals "Sprachsoziologie") und d) des Vereins "Objektive Hermeneutik" etabliert. Die zentralen theoretischen und methodologischen Fragestellungen und Antworten dieser unterschiedlichen Richtungen werden beschrieben, wobei auch dargelegt wird, welche Entwicklungen im Ausland initiiert wurden und welche für die deutsche Soziologie charakteristisch sind.... view less

El objetivo epistemológico de la sociología interpretativa es la reconstrucción del significado. Las diferencias internas básicas aparecen claramente en las respuestas teóricas a la pregunta acerca de dónde es constituido primordialmente el significado. Dentro de la sociología alemana cuatro perspectivas se han institucionalizado: a) en la sección "Métodos de investigación cualitativa"; b) en la sección "Investigación biográfica"; c) en la sección "Sociología del conocimiento"; y d) en la asociación de "Hermenéutica Objetiva". Aquí se describen las preguntas y respuestas teóricas y metodológicas de estos diferentes grupos y se describen los desarrollos posteriores más allá de la sociología alemana y cuáles son específicos a ésta.... view less
