Lee Braude was a sociologist and the author of Work and Workers and A Sense of Sociology. Born in Chicago, IL in 1931, Braude studied at the University of Illinois, Urbana in 1949 and received his diploma from Wright Junior College in 1951. Prof. Braude received his A.M. from the University of Chicago in 1954 and his PhD in 1964, after which he began his professional career at the University of Wisconsin-Kenosha before moving on to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Oakland College, Wayne State University, and finally ending his career at SUNY-Fredonia. At the University of Chicago, Braude served as the Vice President of the Society for Social Research (1955-56) and contributed to the USOE pilot study of social achievement in high schools (1957). His doctoral dissertation was entitled “The Rabbi: A Study of the Relation of Contingency Situations to Differential Career Structure” (1964). Braude studied under a number of notable sociologists including E.C. Hughes, Peter Blau, Anselm L. Strauss, Elihu Katz, Nelson Foote, Otis Dudley Duncan, and Herbert Blumer. This collection consists of papers and course materials from Braude’s days at the University of Chicago which coincide with the “Golden Age” of Chicago sociology.
