Produktbeschreibung
Georg Simmel's highly original take on the newly revived field of sociology succeeded in making the field far more sophisticated than it had been beforehand. He took insights from dialectical thought and Kantian epistemology to develop a "form sociology" method that remains implicit in the field a century later.

His most recently edited volume is American Sociology of Religion: Histories. Anton K.
