The volume discusses the significance of phenomenology for sociology. The 35 authors explore and discuss the inspirations, opportunities, and contributions of phenomenological thinking for social theory as well as for empirical social research. The volume includes contributions addressing sociological conceptual and theoretical issues, methodological aspects, and current contemporary questions. These contributions not only provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of a renewed engagement with phenomenology in sociology but also take a pointed stance within this debate. Despite the diversity of questions and approaches, the authors share the insight into the constitutive importance of subjectivity for contemporary sociological issues.
