Episode Synopsis "The Rationalization of Society: Prologue"

In this podcast series, I want to take a deep dive into the rationalization of society. In this first episode, I want to set the stage for this series and answer a simple question: What do sociologists mean when they speak of the rationalization of society? This episode is a general introduction to the topic and I’ve kept it as short as possible so you can smoothly immerse yourself in this complex phenomenon. If you enjoy it, please be sure to follow this show on your preferred streaming platform so you don’t miss out on the next one.
