What are scholars who write on Durkheim today saying about this founding father of sociology? This book sets out to answer the question succinctly and to show the stage which Durkheimian Studies have now reached. Chapters deal with subjects in sociology in which Durkheim showed particular interest. They include General Sociology, Religion, Epistemology and Philosophy of Science, Morality and Ethics, Political Sociology, Suicide and Anomy, Division of Labour and Economics, and Education.
The introduction is written by Ken Thompson and the opening chapter discusses the life and work of Durkheim. As a conclusion Sue Stedman Jones debates the interpretation of Durkheim in the past. Review: Taken as a whole, the collection provides a useful grounding in contemporary Durkheimian studies. .
