Opis

Scholars are increasingly challenging the view that the psyche and the social are so disparate that their study requires incompatible analytical and theoretical approaches. In this innovative work, George Cavalletto uses key texts by Sigmund Freud, Max Weber, Theodor Adorno and Norbert Elias to show that they crossed the psycho-social divide in way

Recenzje

’In its wonderful exploration of how sociological and psychoanalytic approaches have been interwoven by sociological theorists, George Cavalletto has made both a highly creative and impeccably erudite contribution to the theoretical literature in sociology and related disciplines from psychology to economics, politics and history. I would highly recommend the book for both undergraduate and graduate studies as well as for the educated general reader.’ Lynn Chancer, City University of New York, USA ’Crossing the Psycho-Social Divide is an impressive book - well argued, deeply researched, compelling and important...[it] is an impressive achievement and deserves a wide readership...it is a model for how careful research on the intellectual foundations upon which the discipline is built ought to be done, and offers clear evidence of the gains that might derive from such multi-dimensional thoughtfulness.’ Contemporary Sociology
