General Sociology and Social Theory

Chair 01 | Prof. Dr. Armin Nassehi (on leave)

Welcome to our chair!

We are responsible for theoretical instruction at the Department of Sociology.

We promote reflective sociological thinking

We teach students how to deal with scientifically generated questions so that they can independently develop sociological research perspectives. Our chair's more theory-oriented profile is not intended to train graduates to be mere theorists, but rather to teach them to apply a sociological perspective - including to sociology itself.
