Produktbeschreibung
Although the dissemination of this reform message influenced public opinion and put social reform on the political agenda, Grimmer-Solem shows that Schmoller and his colleagues remained a beleaguered group, attacked from all political directions. His investigation brings the fissures within German liberalism into sharp relief, revealing the persistence of a potent ideal of classlessness that fundamentally shaped German social policy. Grimmer-Solem makes a unique and much-needed contribution to our understanding of the thought and milieu of Gustav Schmoller, the origins of social reform, and the development of the social sciences in Germany. The resulting volume addreses central questions in the historiography of the German Empire, of relevance to all German, European, social, and intellectual historians.
This is the first detailed investigation of the thought, activity, and influence of the German economist and social reformer Gustav Schmoller in the era of Bismarck. Tracing the relationship that developed between political economy and social reform during German industrialization, it explores Schmoller's immense and lasting impact on the development of the social sciences and welfare state in Germany.
