This study of Emile Durkheim, first published in 1939, offers a number of insights into Durkheim's work, many of which remain controversial. The author argues that one has to address the pressing issues of the day through a reinterpretation of the past rather than looking to the new or the novel. Focusing in particular on two Durkheimian concepts - collective consciousness and representations - Alpert challenges us to re-examine and review many Western prejudices concerning the Western relationship betweeen the individual and society. In this respect both Alpert's book and Durkheim's work remain relevant today The text itself is divided into three sections. Part 1 considers Durkheim, the individual. Part 2 looks at the nature, method and scope of Durkheim's sociology with particular reference to Alpert's defence of causality. Part 3 focuses on the definitions of sociology from Durkheim's standpoint.
