“…On a semantic level, I take secularism as the most important feature, pretty much in the wake of Charles Taylor's "Secular Age" (Taylor 2007). Whereas until the enlightenment period a "sacred canopy" in the terminology of Peter L. Berger, or a religious worldview with God in the center of the universe had prevailed, ceptualization by Rainer Maria Lepsius (1993; see also Hübinger 2008). On the vast literature about social movements, see Rucht and Neidhard (2020), on historical movement research Mittag and Stadtland (2014).…”

Central Europe is often seen as the “exceptional case” in the sociology of religion with a high degree of secularization, traditional religions in a process of decline, and fundamentalist movements small in numbers. However, this may not have always been the case. This article elaborates the analytical advantages to conceive late 19th century Catholicism and early 20th century National Socialism as two distinctive fundamentalist formations in Germany. Seen in this light, in between 1850 and 1945, fundamentalist movements were able to attract large strata of the population in Germany. This article includes four parts. First, I outline what I mean by the term “fundamentalism”. Second, I will describe 19th century German Catholicism, and thirdly, early 20th century National Socialism as a fundamentalist movement. In the conclusion I will discuss if their labelling as fundamentalist formations may be justified.

“…Considering the relationship of socioeconomic circumstances and electoral outcomes is in line with previous scholarly work on Imperial Germany. Most importantly, Lepsius (1966) argues that parties in 19th-century Germany reected sociomoral milieus, which were themselves based in deeply rooted factors, such as culture, socioeconomic conditions, and political norms (Hübinger, 2008;Sperber, 1997, 3).…”

Pandemics and Political Development: The Electoral Legacy of the Black Death in Germany

Do pandemics have lasting consequences for political behavior? We address this question by examining the consequences of the most deadly pandemic of the last millennium: the Black Death (1347-1351). Our claim is that pandemics can inuence politics in the long run if they impose sucient loss of life so as to augment the price of labor relative to other factors of production. When this occurs, labor repressive regimes (such as serfdom) become untenable, which ultimately leads to the development of proto-democratic institutions and associated political cultures that shape modalities of political engagement for generations. We test our theory by tracing out the local consequences of the Black Death in German-speaking Central Europe. We nd that areas hit hardest by the pandemic were more likely to: (1) adopt inclusive political institutions and equitable land ownership patterns; (2) exhibit electoral behavior indicating independence from landed elite inuence during the transition to mass politics.

“…La formación conceptual Weberiana -otra vez en palabras de Lepsius -no es una taxonomía de hechos sino una identificación de dimensiones analíticas (Lepsius, 2013: 35). En sus ensayos acerca del medio socio-moral y el carisma de Hitler, Lepsius ha demostrado el potencial analítico de una ciencia histórica tal como la definió Max Weber (Lepsius, 1993: 25-50 y 95-118;Hübinger, 2008).…”

Esta contribución aborda las reflexiones metodológicas de Max Weber sobre el manejo de datos histórico-empíricos en las ciencias sociales y culturales. Hace hincapié en el conocimiento basal común a las ciencias históricas y la sociología en tanto ciencias empíricas de la acción humana. Mientras que la sociología aprehende la acción humana a través de conceptos más bien generales, la historia se focaliza en el “análisis e imputación causales de las personalidades, estructuras y acciones individuales consideradas culturalmente importantes” (Economía y Sociedad). Weber captura la realidad por medio de conceptos y categorías, como lo demuestra el ejemplo de su Sociología de la Dominación. La formación conceptual es abierta y dinámica, debido a que toma en consideración un mundo empírico cambiante.
