Verstehen, meaning "understanding" in German, is a concept in sociology introduced by Max Weber. It involves empathetically understanding the meaning individuals attach to their actions in order to fully grasp social behavior. This approach emphasizes the importance of subjective interpretation and cultural context in studying human behavior.
Max Weber made significant contributions to the development of sociology by emphasizing the importance of understanding social action and behavior through interpretive understanding (Verstehen). He also introduced the concept of the "ideal type" as a methodological tool to understand social phenomena. Weber's work on bureaucracy and the Protestant work ethic has had a lasting impact on sociological theory and continues to be influential in the field of sociology.
Max Weber's focus in the study of sociology was on understanding the rationalization and bureaucratization of society, the impact of culture and religion on social behavior, and the role of power and authority in shaping social structures. He also emphasized the importance of verstehen, or empathetic understanding of individual actions, in studying social phenomena.
Max Weber argued that Verstehen, or understanding the meanings that individuals attach to their actions, was essential in social research to accurately interpret and explain social behavior. Weber believed that researchers should aim to empathize and grasp the subjective experience and perspectives of the individuals being studied in order to gain deeper insights into their actions.
Max Weber used the term "Verstehen" to identify inter subjective understanding, which refers to the ability to understand and empathize with the perspectives of others within a social context. It emphasizes the importance of interpreting meanings and intentions in social interactions.
Korean Journal of Sociology was created in 1964.

'Verstehen' means to understand, and 'das' is that. Thus, it means understand that, but in the wrong conjugation. Correctly, it would be 'Verstehe das', as in Ich verstehe das.
