    Extractions: HOME SOCIOLOGY IN THE NEWS AUTHOR'S MESSAGE Part 1 II. Where Are America's Bureaucrats Located? In this exercise we will attempt to identify which of our fifty states (and Washington, D.C.) has the most (and least) bureaucrats living and working within its boundaries. If we employed a commonsense (and sociologically untutored) view of bureaucratic workers, we would probably assume that all government workers comprise the bureaucratized workforce. If we applied such a definition, we would probably anticipate that Washington, D.C., would represent the center of American bureaucratic life with so many of its residents employed in one or another (of mostly federal) government jobs. Applying this definition of bureaucracy, go to the Census Lookup site and select the STF3C-Part 1 file any By this criterion almost all contemporary workers might be considered bureaucratic employees. The exceptions, of course, would include farmers, owners of mom and pop convenience stores, fishermen, solo practitioner physiciansin short, all self-employed workers. You have to work for someone else to be a bureaucrat. Probably the only sizable group of people remaining today as nonbureaucrats are those running small family farms in rural America. Computing the self-employed percentage from

    Extractions: Scholarships and Grants Bureaucracy An organization of a hierarchical sort, which takes the form of a pyramid of authority. The term 'bureaucracy' was popularized by Max Weber. According to Weber, bureaucracy is the most efficient type of large-scale human organization. As organizations grow in size, Weber argued, they inevitably tend to become more and more bureaucratized. [Anthony Giddens, Sociology . London: Polity Press, 1997:581] A type of organisation run by officials, and based on a hierarchical structure of authority, best suited for the efficient pursuit of organisational goals.

    Extractions: Scholarships and Grants Weber is often regarded as the founder of modern sociology, because: (1) he provided a systematic statement of the conceptual framework of the sociological perspective; (2) he developed a coherent philosophy of social science, which recognized the essential problems of explanation of social action; (3) in a variety of substantive fields, he grasped the basic characteristics of a modern, industrial civilization; (4) through these empirical studies of modern society, he identified a number of key issues which have become the foci of the principal debates within the discipline; (5) his own life in many respects provides a forceful example of sociology as a vocation.

    Extractions: Societa l Institutions, political processes and policy choices in Europe M. Soc. Sc. European Union policy affects us all and much of so-called domestic level policy making reflects the concerns of the EU or indeed, reflects the implementation of EU policy decisions. When a collective EU public policy decision has to be reached, there is a usually a choice of policy options available. The interesting questions are why certain policy option(s) are preferred to others and how collective policy decisions are reached. These are the questions we will explore in this course. This course is also offered to Masters students attending the Dublin European Institute, UCD. The course will cover the following key topics. With regard to each of the topics listed below, some key reading material is listed which students are advised to read. However, this represents only a small amount of the literature that is available on these topics and students are advised to take a look at the wider reading list also given below. It is likely that additional reading material will be advised during the seminars on particular case studies listed below, Introduction to Structural Individualism and Rational Choices Lindenberg, S (1990) “Homo Socio-oeconomicus: The Emergence of a general model of man in the Social Sciences” Journal of International and Theoretical Economics (JITE) No. 146, pp727-748 (see photocopy section) .

34. The Trickster And The Paranormal By George P. Hansen Re Sociology
    Ethnomethodology; sociology of scientific knowledge. Pure charisma is the primordialsource of authority, but bureaucracy is inimical to pure charisma.  
    http://www.tricksterbook.com/BookDescriptions/Sociology.htm
    
    Extractions: Max Weber on Charisma Charisma is central to Max Weber’s theories of authority, power, and domination. He clearly explained that pure charisma required the working of miracles, and he specifically mentioned prophecy, telepathy, and weather control as manifestations of pure charisma. Weber’s concepts of rationalization, disenchantment, and bureaucratization are well known. They entail the attenuation and routinization of charisma. As cultures become more rationalized, miracles and magic (i.e., overt control of paranormal and supernatural powers) are suppressed. A variety of institutions are agents for rationalization and disenchantment. Academe is such a force, as are most exoteric religions. Magic and miracles are never fully eliminated from the world, rather they are expelled from the conscious awareness of cultural elites. They view them as fiction. Indeed, large industries portray the paranormal in and as fiction. In financial terms, these industries dwarf those that attempt to apply psychic powers.
