Book Summary: An Illuminating Account Of The Development Of Durkheim's Economic SociologyÉmile Durkheim's Work Has Traditionally Been Viewed As A Part Of Sociology Removed From Economics. Rectifying This Perception, Durkheim And The Birth Of Economic Sociology Is The First Book To Provide An In-depth Look At The Contributions Made To Economic Sociology By Durkheim And His Followers. Philippe Steiner Demonstrates The Relevance Of Economic Factors To Sociology And Shows How The Durkheimians Inform Today's Economic Systems.Steiner Argues That There Are Two Stages In Durkheim's Approach To The Economy—a Sociological Critique Of Political Economy And A Sociology Of Economic Knowledge. In His Early Works, Durkheim Critiques Economists And Their Categories, And Tries To Analyze The Division Of Labor From A Social Rather Than Economic Perspective. From The Mid-1890s Onward, Durkheim's Preoccupations Shifted To Questions Of Religion And The Sociology Of Knowledge. Durkheim's Disciples, Such As Maurice Halbwachs And François Simiand, Synthesized And Elaborated On Durkheim's First-stage Arguments, While His Ideas On Religion And The Economy Were Taken Up By Marcel Mauss. Steiner Indicates That The Ways In Which The Durkheimians Rooted The Sociology Of Economic Knowledge In The Educational System Allows For An Invaluable Perspective On The Role Of Economics In Modern Society, Similar To The Perspective Offered By Max Weber's Work.Recognizing The Power Of The Durkheimian Approach, Durkheim And The Birth Of Economic Sociology Assesses The Effect Of This Important Thinker And His Successors On One Of The Most Active Fields In Contemporary Sociology.
