This book argues that the sociology of Georg Simmel is a most promising resource to accomplish these ends. Although Simmel was rediscovered in the 1980s his potential for the design of the subject as a whole and the professional necessities for ′doing good sociology′ were not fully realized. Simmel′s inspiration for the analysis of money, the mass media and the state showed how sociologists might approach, in an emancipatory perspective, subjective behaviour that arises from social forces that appear to be arbitrary and impenetrable.
Written with a clear eye upon both the needs of contemporary sociologist′s and international dilemmas facing the world today, Pietila′s book is intended to make a professional and civic contribution. This is a compassionate and stimulating book that will help readers to make sense of their worlds and the worlds of others.
