Teodor Shanin’s scientific legacy: genres and models for understanding social worlds

The authors systematize the scientific legacy of Teodor Shanin in a brief review of three groups of the key, scientific works of this outstanding Israeli-British sociologist (10.29.1930–02.04.2020). This summary emphasizes Shanin's amazing ability to create original explanatory models for social sciences. His diverse and multifaceted intellectual legacy can be divided into three main genres: monographs, anthologies/textbooks, and essays. Shanin was the head of major research projects and the author of editorial prefaces and articles on explanatory models of peasant worlds and communities, informal/expolary economies, developing countries, and Marxist theory as applied to the development of Russia. © 2020 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
