Abstract

Nuance is not a virtue of good sociological theory. Although often demanded and superficially attractive, nuance inhibits the abstraction on which good theory depends. I describe three “nuance traps” common in sociology and show why they should be avoided on grounds of principle, aesthetics, and strategy. The argument is made without prejudice to the substantive heterogeneity of the discipline.
操Nuance
裸体不是好的社会学理论的美德。尽管细致入微往往被要求,表面上也很有吸引力,但它抑制了好理论所依赖的抽象性。我描述了社会学中常见的三个“细微差别陷阱”,并说明了为什么应该基于原则、美学和策略来避免它们。这一论点是在不影响学科实质异质性的情况下提出的。

期刊介绍: Published for the American Sociological Association, this important journal covers the full range of sociological theory - from ethnomethodology to world systems analysis, from commentaries on the classics to the latest cutting-edge ideas, and from re-examinations of neglected theorists to metatheoretical inquiries. Its themes and contributions are interdisciplinary, its orientation pluralistic, its pages open to commentary and debate. Renowned for publishing the best international research and scholarship, Sociological Theory is essential reading for sociologists and social theorists alike.
