Form and Dialectic in Georg Simmel's Sociology: A New Interpretation

By David Jary and Henry Schermer

Book Overview

This book shows that a dialectical conceptual model underpins Georg Simmel's writings. The book provides key examples of social forms - including fashion, the secret and money - as exemplifications of this method. The volume concludes with a reassessment of Simmel's relevance today.
