Niklas Luhmann is now widely recognized as one of the most
important social theorists of the twentieth century. While several
of his key texts have been translated into English significant
parts of Luhmann's extensive output remain unavailable to a
non-German-speaking readership. His publication in four volumes on
Gesellschaftsstruktur and Semantik (Social Structure and Semantics)
1980, 1981, 1989, 1995) together constitute an important part of
his work as they not only represent his contribution to a sociology
of knowledge and culture, but they also set out the empirical work
that underpins the development of his theory of society. In The
Making of Meaning, Christian Morgner brings together Luhmann's
essential ideas from the four volume series. In this work, Luhmann
presents a new empirical strategy that links the production of
knowledge and culture to broader societal changes and the
transformation of societal complexity. This volume provides insight
into the development of Luhmann's theoretical ideas, revealing how
his theory was driven by a broad range of detailed historical and
comparative studies. Informing a wide range of disciplines, from
sociology to history, from law to business studies, from philosophy
to cultural studies, The Making of Meaning stands as a major
contribution to the sociology of knowledge and the social history
of ideas.
