Germany
The article seeks to understand the contemporary uses of
the concept of civil society in labour market reforms in Germany. By first
studying the three dominant readings of the constitution of collectives during
the 19th century (civil, civic and social), the article aims to specify the seman~tics and categories available to describe and order a political society. In the
second part, the article examines the expansion of “organized modernity” and
the demise of civil society semantics under the Kaiserreich as a path to unders~tanding the contemporary erosion of these century-old institutions. This his~torical excursion sheds new light on the reasons for the ability of civil society
to subvert existing collective categories but questions the ability of new insti~tutions and arrangements based on civil society grammar to provide stable
and viable alternatives to the institutions of organized modernity. |
