Whether terrorist attacks, refugee or financial crises - the challenges of globalized modernity expose those areas that Durkheim described as anomic and whose processing still illustrates the central position of moral communication. There is some evidence to suggest that progressive functional differentiation does not erode morality, but actually promotes a remoralization of society through increasing communicative networking. Wherever grievances come to light and it is not foreseeable how they could be satisfactorily resolved in the modus operandi, morality provides a promising instrument which, in the form of moral collectives, is able to permeate everyday life and shape society. In this sense, the anthology is dedicated to a theoretical as well as empirical analysis of morality, which takes shape as a genuinely social entity via moral collectives. With contributions from S. Joller and M. Stanisavljević.- H.-G. Soeffner.- A. Langenohl.- S. Burkhardt.- R. Diaz-Bone.- P. Eisewicht and R. Hitzler.- A. Seehaus and V. Trappmann.- S. Schönemann.- J.

A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
