Curr. 2021 § 5 (1) 11: The students can reproduce the essential theoretical approaches of interpretative sociology and explain their basic terminology. They can also describe current topics and research perspectives in everyday and cultural-sociological analyses. In particular, they are able to critically discuss identity constructions in the context of social misconception and recognition based on sociological identity theories as well as theoretical impulses from related fields. They can identify central theses and lines of argument and reproduce them without falsification. In addition, they are able to apply theoretical concepts to empirical phenomena as an example of research. 

The seminar deepens the understanding of the various topics of the lecture, in particular on the theoretical foundations of the so-called "Verstehende Soziologie" and the topics of capitalism/rationalization, marketization, subjectivation, social movements/social conflicts.
