Social Theory: Simmel and Parsons Reconsidered

4/8/2012

10 Comments

 
Simmel's approach to the study of society is vulnerable in three respects that a Parsonian critique readily reveals. . . . On the other hand, Parson's approach to the study of society is vulnerable in certain respects that a Simmelian critique readily reveals. . . . Even when it may prove impossible to combine the divergent approaches of the two authors in a single interpretive framework where one is dominant and the other subordinate, the social analyst may benefit from alternating the two perspectives when considering some particular set of phenomena.

Such an enticing quotation! Makes me want to read the Levine -- and the Simmel -- and the Parsons -- two or three times each.

Despite the fact that Parsons experienced the works of both Simmel and Weber amid his stay at Heidelberg in the late 1920s, his apportionment of the two turned out to be progressively uneven.

In spite of the way that Parsons encountered the works of both Simmel and Weber in the midst of his stay at Heidelberg in his division of the two ended up being continuously uneven. Maybe, you are correct saying that Parson's way to deal with the investigation of society is powerless in specific regards.

Simmel's way to deal with the investigation of society is defenseless in three regards that a Parsonian scrutinize promptly uncovers. Then again, Parson's way to deal with the investigation of society is helpless in specific regards that a Simmelian scrutinize promptly uncovers.

    The primary word I-Thou can be spoken only with the whole being. Concentration and fusion into the whole being can never take place through my agency, not can it ever take place without me. I become through my relation to the Thou; and as I become the I, I say Thou. All real living is meeting.
