Description
Originally published in 1993, this book opens a new and major line of interpretation, showing that Georg Simmel is the essential sociologist of the postmodern age. The authors trace the important contributions that Simmel's writings can make to current studies of intellectual ethics, textual methodology, sociological theory, philosophy of history and cultural theory
Reviews / Votes
'Postmodern(ized) Simmel provides an ambitious, adventurous and at times audacious analysis that situates Simmel at the centre of current debates over modernity and its consequences. Original and provocative.' - Barry SmartMore details
