This book proposes a new representation of Emile Durkheim, as the philosopher and moralist who wanted to renovate rationalism, challenge positivism, reform sociology, and extend Schopenhauer''s philosophy to the new domain of sociology. Above all, it highlights Durkheim''s vision of sociology as the ''science of morality'' that would eventually replace moralities based on religion.

Industry Reviews

A refreshing reappraisal of Durkheim's sociology. This work should interest a wide range of sociologists, but especially sociological theorists, Durkheim scholars and those in the sociology of knowledge.--Sociological Inquiry
