Isi artikel

In our introduction to the articles in this Special Issue, the editors have set out some of the lineaments of the debate over cognitivistic conceptions of social phenomena. They have also set out to show that cognitivism, of at least a residual kind, is manifest in classical sociologies, and the position of some canonical authors is critically discussed. The article debates the analytic practices contributing to cognitivism in classical sociologies including the use of conceptual oppositions, decontextualization techniques and methodological irony. Using some resources derived from the latter philosophy of Wittgenstein and from ethnomethodology, an alternative to cognitivism is proposed.
