1 Classical Sociological Theory Sociology 475 Fall 2014 Class meetings: 9:30-10:45 A.M. Tuesdays and Thursdays Classroom: Van Vleck, Room B139 Instructor: Matthew Kearney Office location: Sewell Social Science Building, Room 3455 Office hours: 11 A.M. 1 P.M. Thursdays Introductory Comments This course has two complementary goals: 1. Students will learn how to construct theoretical arguments about empirical material. 2. Students will learn the basic concepts and approaches of canonical social theorists. Throughout the semester, we will attempt to bring these two goals together. That is, we will draw on canonical approaches in the process of constructing our own arguments about society. This means we understand what the classical theorists say, critique what they say, and then potentially modify their arguments to construct our own explanations of social phenomenon. The premise of this course is that we will construct better explanations after we have seriously studied the classical sociological theory. Notice that serious canonical study is not our end goal; it is only the first step. It is not enough to interpret the classical theories; the point is to change them. The class discussions, lectures, and paper assignments all aim at this goal: using the classical theorists to come to our own understanding of society. The fact that we are authorized to disagree with or modify canonical concepts does not mean we should do so lightly. We have to do serious study first, and we need to take that word 'serious' seriously. We do not discard a social theory until and unless we have an alternative theory of comparable scope with which to replace it. This is an intimidating process, and it is supposed to be, but somebody has to do it, and it is going to be us. One semester, frankly, is not very much time for a task of this order, but we will at least get a good start. We will focus on four theorists: Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Karl Marx, Émile Durkheim, and Max Weber. We will also read material by Jane Addams and Friedrich Engels. Weekly reading assignments are specified below. At the end of the semester, we will read one another's work. Obviously, there is far more classical and semi-classical social theory than we will be able to read in one semester. In addition to the weekly reading assignments, I have listed some of the important work that we are not covering under the label "optional supplementary reading." The authors listed here are Julia Adams, Jeffrey Alexander, Pierre Bourdieu, Randall Collins, Raewyn Connel, W.E.B. DuBois, Karen E. Fields, Sigmund Freud, Clifford Geertz, Erving Goffman, Mark Gould, Antonio Gramsci, Benjamin Franklin, V.I. Lenin, Georg Lukács, Martin 1

2 Luther, George Herbert Mead, R.R. Palmer, Talcott Parsons, Jean Piaget, Plato, Wolfgang Schluchter, Göran Therborn, and Erik Olin Wright. To be clear, this reading is not required. Placing an optional supplementary reading in a particular week is not meant to suggest that it is not relevant to other weeks as well. All students are welcome to do as much of the additional reading as they wish. Graduate students in this class, and undergraduate students considering graduate work in the social sciences, should do some of this additional reading. Books to acquire (also on reserve in College Library) The Social Contract by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, translated by Maurice Cranston The Division of Labor in Society by Émile Durkheim, translated by W.D. Halls The Theory of Social and Economic Organization by Max Weber, translated by Talcott Parsons OR Economy and Society by Max Weber, edited by Guenther Roth and Claus Wittich, volume 1 The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism by Max Weber, translated by Stephen Kalberg Note: Copies of books are available for purchase at the Rainbow Bookstore Cooperative, 426 West Gilman Street, but you are not required to purchase them there. All other required readings are available online through learn@uw. Grading Rubric Assignment 1: 5%. Assignment 2: 25% Assignment 3: 15% Final Paper: 40% Class Participation: 15%. Active discussion is expected in response to assigned readings, what the instructor says, and what other classmates say. University of Wisconsin-Madison Grading Standards: A Excellent AB Very Good B Good BC Moderately Good C Fair D Poor F Failure <60 Accommodations This class will provide accommodations for religious observances. If there are dates during this semester for which you will require accommodation, these dates to the instructor by the second week of class, that is, by Friday, September 12. 2

3 If you are a varsity athlete, a member of the marching band, or a member of some other university-sponsored group whose activities require extensive travel, and you have unavoidable travel obligations that conflict with class meeting times, provide the instructor a copy of all the dates for which you will be absent by Friday, September 12. This class will provide accommodations for disabilities according to the University of Wisconsin McBurney Disability Resource Center. If you have a McBurney visa, provide a copy of it to the instructor during the first week of class. Comments on Plagiarism The Department of Sociology uses powerful anti-plagiarism software that compares student work to a vast, comprehensive data base of on-line texts, and to papers submitted to Sociology courses in previous semesters. Any written work submitted to this class may be processed through the anti-plagiarism software. In addition, you are hereby notified that any written work you submit to this class may be entered into the anti-plagiarism data base so that it cannot be plagiarized in future semesters. A clear definition of plagiarism as well as information about disciplinary sanctions for academic misconduct may be found at the Dean of Students web site: Knowledge of these rules is your responsibility, and lack of familiarity with the rules does not excuse misconduct. The paragraph above is a Sociology department statement on plagiarism, which I agree with completely. The one below is from me personally. To plagiarize is to lie and to cheat. When you represent someone else's work as your own, you steal from the person who actually did the work. This harms the victim on a deeper level than stealing their material possessions, especially if that person is a professional scholar. You have not only taken away part of their livelihood on some level you have taken a part of their mind and pretended it was yours. This is a deeply nasty thing to do. But it gets worse, because beyond even that, to plagiarize is to violate the basic values of the academic enterprise we are here for. Ultimately, we are pursuing knowledge. At the undergraduate level, this typically means improving our minds so we may more effectively and accurately understand the world. Courses and the assignments in them are supposed to be exercises toward this end. To blow them off by cheating is to discard the larger pursuit of knowledge that you signed up for when you went to college. If I believe you have plagiarized an assignment, I will use every resource I possibly can to seek the severest punishment. Believe me, you will wish you had turned in something sub-par instead.

The instructor will participate as little as possible, except to keep discussions on track and within necessary time limits. Prior to the final paper discussion, students will prepare a 1-page written summary of their critique of each classmate, and give a copy to each other and to the instructor. 7

8 Final Paper: Use one or more theoretical approaches introduced during the semester to address some empirical question. References need not be limited to course readings, but the argumentative approach or theoretical framework should emerge out of at least one area of the course. Critiques of theoretical approaches presented in class are acceptable and encouraged. Students are required to gain instructor approval for their final paper topic; it is recommended they do this before the middle of November pages. 8
