    Basic Income and the Labor Contract.Claus Offe - 2009 - Analyse & Kritik 31 (1):49-79.
    The paper starts by exploring the negative contingencies that are associated with the core institution of capitalist societies, the labour contract: unemployment, poverty, and denial of autonomy. It argues that these are the three conditions that basic income schemes can help prevent. Next, the three major normative arguments are discussed that are raised by opponents of basic income proposals: the idle should not be rewarded, the prosperous don’t need it, and there are so many things waiting to be done in (...)

  4. Disorganized Capitalism: Contemporary Transformations of Work and Politics.Claus Offe - 1985 - Cambridge: MIT Press.
    Should the Western democracies, contrary to their prevailing self-image as "planned" and "managed," be seen as highly disorganized systems of social power and political authority? If so, what are the symptoms, consequences of, and possible remedies for these disorganizing tendencies?In these ten essays, Claus Offe seeks to answer such questions. Moving beyond the boundaries of both Marxism and established forms of political sociology, he focuses on the growth of serious divisions within the work force, the importance of the (...)

    Liberale Demokratie Und Soziale Macht: Demokratietheoretische Studien.Claus Offe - 2019 - Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden.
    Im vierten Band der Ausgewählten Schriften von Claus Offe sind demokratietheoretische Aufsätze aus fünf Dekaden zusammengestellt, die sich mit dem Spannungsverhältnis zwischen den organisierten Konfliktgruppen kapitalistischer Gesellschaften und den Institutionen der liberalen Demokratie befassen. Dabei geht es um die strategischen Akteure und ihre Interessen und Identitäten, die auf der "Eingabeseite" demokratischer Politik deren Tagesordnung wie ihre Verhandlungs- und Entscheidungsergebnisse bestimmen. Ebenso geht es um das politische Beteiligungsverhalten von Bürgern und die Symptome einer prekären Legitimität, die sich trotz des (...)

  13. Whose good is the common good?Claus Offe - 2012 - Philosophy and Social Criticism 38 (7):665-684.
    Reference to the common good has increased in recent political discourse, not only on the right but also on the left. This development partly reflects genuine limitations in the liberal model of politics, and thus should not be dismissed as mere rhetoric. However, appeals to the common good face four difficulties: its social referent; its temporal horizon; its substantive content; and its authoritative identification. The article concludes with a modest suggestion for understanding the common good in complex societies.

    “Homogeneity” and Constitutional Democracy: Coping with Identity Conflicts through Group Rights.Claus Offe - 2002 - Journal of Political Philosophy 6 (2):113-141.
    In this article I explore some ancient issues of political theory in the light of some contemporary social and cultural issues. After developing a check list of the virtues and vulnerabilities of constitutional democracy (Section I), I go on to discuss some types and symptoms of difference, conflict, fragmentation and heterogeneity (Section II). I then proceed to a critical review of a particular set of strategies and institutional solutions—political group rights—that are often thought promising devices for strengthening the virtues and (...)

    Political liberalism, identity politics and the role of fear.Claus Offe - 2012 - Philosophy and Social Criticism 38 (4-5):359-367.
    Resentment is not so much based upon the diversity of cultural and other identities but often rooted in grievances, complaints, and memories of historical conflicts that groups hold against other groups. Using examples from Central and Eastern Europe, this article argues that the viability of liberal democratic welfare states in Europe depends upon a minimum of toleration, trust, and solidarity among citizens. It is these cultural underpinnings of democracy which are threatened by historically rooted and (often strategically activated) feelings of (...)

    Der Wohlfahrtsstaat Und Seine Bürger.Claus Offe - 2018 - Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden.
    Im zweiten Band der Ausgewählten Schriften von Claus Offe sind theoretische Arbeiten zu Wohlfahrtsstaat und Sozialpolitik versammelt. Sie handeln von den drei großen Säulen sozialstaatlicher Politik: soziale Hilfen oder „welfar“, gesetzliche Sozialversicherung und Versorgung von der Bevölkerung mit Diensten und finanziellen Ressourcen. Deren aktuelle Herausforderungen werden durch das Geschehen am Arbeitsmarkt, fiskalische Krisen und demografische Trends bestimmt, nicht zuletzt auch durch die „moralische Ökonomie“ der Gewährleistung sozialer Sicherheit. Wie weit tragen unter gegebenen Bedingungen die normativen Ressourcen der Solidarität, (...)

    Macht Und Effizienz: Studien Zur Kapitalistischen Rationalisierung der Arbeit.Claus Offe - 2018 - Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden.
    Im ersten Band der „Ausgewählten Schriften von Claus Offe“ sind wichtige Arbeiten zu Arbeitsmarkt und Arbeitsgesellschaft sowie deren Zusammenhang mit der kapitalistischen Wirtschaftsordnung zusammengestellt. Die Studien sind überwiegend in der zweiten Hälfte der 1970er und in den 1980er Jahren entstanden, aber wohl auch heute von mehr als antiquarischem Interesse, weil die Kerninstitutionen kapitalistischer Gesellschaften mit ihren Machtstrukturen, Verteilungsergebnissen und ihrer Konfliktdynamik zu wesentlichen Teilen unverändert geblieben sind. Unverändert oder sogar verstärkt sind wir mit Problemen der Arbeitsmarkt-Spaltung, der Prekarität, (...)

    Staatskapazität Und Europäische Integration.Claus Offe - 2019 - Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden.
    Im fünften Band der Ausgewählten Schriften von Claus Offe geht es um soziologische Aspekte politischer Herrschaft in Gesellschaften mit kapitalistischer Wirtschaftsordnung. Dabei steht die Frage im Mittelpunkt, wie die Ausübung staatlicher Gewalt durch das Handeln von Gesetzgebern und Regierungen beide Gleichgewichtsbedingungen zugleich erfüllen kann: die der Legitimität politischer Herrschaft und die der Erhaltung und Förderung einer profitgesteuerten Ökonomie. Genauer: Ob und ggf. aus welchen systematischen Gründen Staaten an dieser ihrer zweifachen Funktionsbestimmung scheitern und dann Symptome unzulänglicher Reformpolitik, misslingenden (...)

    Corporatism as Macro-Structuring.Claus Offe - 1985 - Telos: Critical Theory of the Contemporary 1985 (65):97-111.
    A frayed theoretical discussion has been taking place in most Common Market countries since the mid-1970s, and it has been followed by large-scale empirical research. These studies demonstrate the unforeseen importance of socio-political formations which cannot be comprehended by frameworks based on constitutional law and its understanding of a sound political order. On the contrary, standard constitutional accounts often treat these formations as relics of pre-modern regimes. In fact, however, corporatist arrangements envision socio-political controls not anticipated by the constitutional state. (...)

    The utopian energy of the liberal social-democratic state, which is unable to answer the great questions of today's world, is now spent. The way forward will involve a struggle, not against the institutions, but for the emergence of a new rationality, corresponding not only to a new organisation of society, but also to a strategic and multidimensional concept of class.

    The Future of the Labor Market.Claus Offe - 1984 - Telos: Critical Theory of the Contemporary 1984 (60):81-96.
    In West Germany, there is a good deal of disagreement among leading political groups, economic decision makers and scientific experts concerning both the future of the labor market and the role of labor in society. This disagreement bears on all of the three relevant points: the prognosis of the likely future development, the policy most suited to this development, and the criteria and objectives that determine whether, in fact, a development could be judged as positive or indeed desirable. In this (...)

    This article presents an overview of the institutional architecture and the organizing principles of the German welfare state, which is widely and rightly considered to be the model case of North West European Continental welfare states. The author's ambition is to be both systematic and historical in his presentation, emphasizing the process in which different layers of the historically evolved structure serve certain functions, such as poor relief, the protection of workers at work, the protection of workers outside of work, (...)

  49. Wat leert ons kennis?Claus Offe - 2007 - Nexus 49.
    Jonge mensen afschermen door hun een ruime dosis ‘ klassieken’ toe te dienen is niet voldoende om ervoor te zorgen dat ze een zelfstandig, kritisch oordeelsvermogen opbouwen, of om ze weerbaar te maken tegen krachten die aan dat vermogen afbreuk kunnen doen. Wat zijn de meest veelbelovende educatieve praktijken om dit vermogen te steunen? Het is hoogst onwaarschijnlijk dat hiertoe ooit een bevredigende ‘canon’ voor kennis en kunde zal worden opgesteld. Maar universiteiten kunnen in hun dagelijkse praktijk het oordeelsvermogen wel (...)
