TheAnthem Companion to Émile Durkheim intends to offer different practical attempts to build on Durkheims legacy and investigate the issues and controversies that characterise contemporary societies and thus contribute to develop further this path of critical enquiry into classical sociology.
The contributions to this volume provide new insights into Durkheims classical texts and juxtapose them with the reconstruction of his lectures and lesser known writings to offer a wider understanding of his oeuvre.
