This book provides the first English-language account of the history of Danish sociology, examining it from the late 19th century to the present day. Focusing on the discipline's struggle for recognition in Denmark, it is a case study of how sociological knowledge has entered into ever-changing coalitions with welfare state bureaucracies.

Kristoffer Kropp is Associate Professor at Roskilde University, Denmark. His research focuses on the history of sociology as well as on the production of social science knowledge and the relationship between social science, political institutions and the European integration process.
