Abstract: Der Beitrag setzt sich mit Walther Mueller-Jentschs Soziologie industrieller Beziehungen auseinander. Er argumentiert, dass die Transformation des einstigen Sozialkapitalismus zwei Welten sozialer Regulation hervorgebracht hat, deren ‘Grenzregime’ zunehmend umkaempft ist. Es handelt sich, so die These, um Klassen- Auseinandersetzungen in fragmentierten Arbeitsbeziehungen. Bewegungen, die von der einen in die andere Regulationswelt fuehren, lassen sich, wie auch Wolfgang Streeck feststellt, mit dem Konzept der Konfliktpartnerschaft nicht mehr angemessen verstehen. Deshalb gehoert auf den Pruefstand, was in der Soziologie industrieller Beziehungen lange als gesichertes Wissen galt. (The paper discusses Walther Mueller-Jentsch’s sociology of industrial relations. He contends that the transformation of erstwhile social capitalism has produced two distinct worlds of regulation, the ‘border regime’ of which is increasingly contested. It argues that what we are witnessing are class conflicts in the context of fragmented labour relations. As Wolfgang Streeck also notes, the movements that stretch from one world of regulation to the other can no longer be adequately grasped by the concept of ‘conflict partnership’. We must therefore reconsider some of the ideas that have long been taken for granted in the sociology of industrial relations.)
