Durkheim's classic works are characterized by a structural approach to the understanding of collective behaviour. This volume rejects the dominant structural approach and draws instead on Durkheim's later work. In doing so, it offers a radically different approach to Durkheimian sociology and a new way of linking the interpretation of culture and the interpretation of society.
This book is designed to bring the analysis of symbolic phenomena more directly into the discourse of sociology. The human studies are in the midst of an explosion of cultural interest. In diverse disciplinary orientations throughout Europe and in literary studies in the United States, semiotics and structuralism-and the poststructuralist movements which have followed in their wake-have fundamentally affected contemporary understandings of social experience and ideas.
