For Durkheim
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-26236-2 (ISBN)
For Durkheim is a timely and original contribution to the debate about Durkheim at a time when his concerns on ethics, morality and civil religion have much relevance for our own troubled and divided society. It includes two new essays from Edward A. Tiryakian’s collection on the Danish Muhammad cartoons and September 11th, providing contemporary relevance to the debate and an analytical and interpretive introduction indicating the ongoing importance of Durkheim within sociology. This indispensable volume for all serious Durkheim scholars includes English translations of papers previously published in French for the first time, and will be of interest to sociologists, anthropologists, social historians and those interested in critical questions of modernity.
Edward A Tiryakian is Professor Emeritus of Sociology at Duke University, USA. He has published widely in the areas of theory, history of sociology/social thought, religion, globalization and national identity. He recently served as the Distinguished Leader of the Fulbright New Century Scholars Program, 2002-2003, as the past president of the American Society for the Study of Religion (1981-84) and of the International Association of French-Speaking Sociologists (1988-1992).
