Mit der Dienstleistungsarbeit ging ein Versprechen auf Wohlstand, Aufstiegsmöglichkeiten und soziale Teilhabe einher; sie gilt bis heute als relativ herrschaftsarm, weil sie große Autonomiespielräume für die Beschäftigten zu bieten scheint. Diese Versprechen haben sich für die "einfachen" Dienstleistungen - Verkauf im Einzelhandel, pflegende Tätigkeiten, Post- und Paketdienste, Reinigungs- und andere Serviceaufgaben - zweifellos nicht erfüllt. Geringe Löhne, Konkurrenzdruck, rare oder fehlende Aufstiegsmöglichkeiten und Arbeitsisolation prägen das Segment "einfacher" Dienstleistungen. Die Hoffnung auf autonome Entfaltungsspielräume hat sich verflüchtigt, Hierarchie und Herrschaft entwickeln sich unter Bedingungen harten Rationalisierungsdrucks. Anhand von umfangreichen Beobachtungen und Interviews mit Beschäftigten der "einfachen" Dienstleistungsarbeit zeigt Philipp Staab auf, dass die Frage nach Proletarisierung in unserer Gesellschaft mit dem Verschwinden der Industriearbeit nicht obsolet geworden ist. Es ist eine neue Form einer postindustriellen "Proletarität" entstanden, die Arbeits- und Lebensführung gleichermaßen prägt. Somit ist der entscheidende Ort der Produktion und Verfestigung von Ungleichheit gerade dort auszumachen, wo er gemessen an gesellschaftlichen Hoffnungen nicht mehr sein sollte: am Rand der Dienstleistungsgesellschaft.

From the rise of terrorism to the uncertainties associated with economic crisis and recession, our age is characterized by fear. Fear is the expression of a society on unstable foundations. Most of us feel that our social status is under threat and our future prospects in jeopardy. We are overwhelmed by a sense of having been catapulted into a world to which we no longer belong. Tracing this experience of fear, Heinz Bude uncovers a society marked by disturbing uncertainty, suppressed anger and quiet resentment. This is as true in our close relationships as it is in the world of work, in how we react to politicians as much as in our attitudes towards bankers and others in the financial sector. Bude shows how this fear is not derived so much from a 'powerful other' but rather from the seemingly endless range of possibilities which we face. While this may seem to offer us greater autonomy and freedom, in reality the unknown impact and meaning of each option creates a vacuum which is filled by fear. What conditions lead people to feel anxious and fearful for themselves and others? How can individuals withstand fear and develop ways of making their fears intelligible? Probing these and other questions, Bude provides a fresh analysis of some of the most fundamental features of our societies today.

One of the German-speaking world's leading young sociologists lays out modern Germany's social and political crisis and its implications for the future of the European hegemon. Upward social mobility represented a core promise of life under the "old" West German welfare state, in which millions of skilled workers upgraded their VWs to Audis, bought their first homes, and sent their children to university. Not so in today's Federal Republic, however, where the gears of the so-called "elevator society" have long since ground to a halt. In the absence of the social mobility of yesterday, widespread social exhaustion and anxiety have emerged across mainstream society. Oliver Nachtwey analyses the reasons for this social rupture in post-war German society and investigates the conflict potential emerging as a result, concluding that although the country has managed to muddle through the Eurocrisis largely unscathed thus far, simmering tensions beneath the surface nevertheless threaten to undermine the German system's stability in the years to come. Nachtwey's book was recipient of the Friedrich Ebert Foundation's 2016 Hans-Matthfer-Preis for Economic Writing.

The idea of socialism has given normative grounding and orientation to the outrage over capitalism for more than 150 years, and yet today it seems to have lost much of its appeal. Despite growing discontent, many would hesitate to invoke socialism when it comes to envisioning life beyond capitalism. How can we explain the rapid decline of this once powerful idea? And what must we do to renew it for the twenty-first century? In this lucid, political-philosophical essay, Axel Honneth argues that the idea of socialism has lost its luster because its theoretical assumptions stem from the industrial era and are no longer convincing in our contemporary post-industrial societies. Only if we manage to replace these assumptions with a concept of history and society that corresponds to our current experiences will we be able to restore confidence in a project whose fundamental idea remains as relevant today as it was a century ago – the idea of an economy that realizes freedom in solidarity. The Idea of Socialism was awarded the Bruno Kreisky Prize for the Political Book of 2015.

Our contemporary societies place more and more emphasis on the singular and the unique. The industrial societies of the early 20th century produced standardized products, cities, subjects and organizations which tended to look the same, but in our late-modern societies, we value the exceptional - unique objects, experiences, places, individuals, events and communities which are beyond the ordinary and which claim a certain authenticity. Industrial society’s logic of the general has been replaced by late modernity’s logic of the particular. In this major new book, Andreas Reckwitz examines the causes, structures and consequences of the society of singularities in which we now live. The transformation from industrial to cultural capitalism, the rise of digital technologies and their ‘culture machine’ and the emergence of an educated, urban new middle class form a powerful engine for the singularization of the social. In late modernity, what is singular is valorized and stirs the emotions, while what is general has to remain in the background, and this has profound social consequences. The society of singularities systematically produces devaluation and inequality: winner-takes-all markets, job polarization, the neglect of rural regions and the alienation of the traditional middle class. The emergence of populism and the rise of aggressive forms of nationalism which emphasize the cultural authenticity of one’s own people thus turn out to be the other side of singularization. This prize-winning book offers a new perspective on how modern societies have changed in recent decades and it will be of great value to anyone interested in the forces that are shaping our world today.

This volume addresses the contested relationship between social stratification and social movements in three different ways: First, the authors address the relationship between social stratification and the emergence of protest mobilization. Second, the texts look at social stratification and social positions to explain variations in political orientations, as well as differing aims and interests of protestors. Finally, the volume focuses on the socio-structural composition of protestors. Social Stratification and Social Movements takes up recent attempts to reconnect research on these two fields. Instead of calling for a return of a class perspective or abandoning the classical social movement research agenda, it introduces a multi-dimensional perspective on stratification and social movements and broadens the view by extending the empirical analysis beyond Europe.

Über das Wachstumsversprechen und die Tücken des digitalen Kapitalismus Die Digitalisierung von Arbeit und Wirtschaft ist derzeit in aller Munde. Die einen verbinden mit der disruptiven Kraft digitaler Innovationen die Hoffnung auf eine neue Quelle unbegrenzten Wachstums. Andere fürchten massive Beschäftigungsverluste und eine radikale Zunahme sozialer Ungleichheit. Philipp Staab bietet eine differenzierte Analyse der Leitunternehmen des Silicon Valley, die weltweit ein spezifisches Wirtschaftsmodell propagieren. Er beschreibt dessen historische Genese, beleuchtet die Ideologie des digitalen Kapitalismus und kontrastiert diese mit den ökonomischen Imperativen in der digitalen Ökonomie. Die Unternehmenspolitik von Google, Apple, Amazon und Co. beschreibt der Autor als ökonomisches Programm, das auf die Bearbeitung einer Sollbruchstelle des gegenwärtigen Wirtschaftssystems zielt. Seit dem Ende des Fordismus kann in den hochentwickelten Ökonomien der OECD-Welt die Entwicklung des Konsums nicht mit den Produktivitätssteigerungen in der Wirtschaft Schritt halten. Der digitale Kapitalismus bildet den Versuch, die systematische Nachfrageschwäche des gegenwärtigen Wirtschaftssystems durch die Rationalisierung der Konsumtionsapparate zu tilgen. Dabei erzeugt er jedoch Widersprüche, die das Problem, zu dessen Lösung er antritt, weiter verschärfen. Der digitale Kapitalismus der Gegenwart ist von einem Konsumtionsdilemma geprägt, das die Wachstumspotenziale der Digitalisierung in ihr Gegenteil verkehren könnte. Die Verheißungen des digitalen Kapitalismus könnten sich schon bald als falsche Versprechen entpuppen..
