Exploring, clarifying, and moving beyond the distinction between 'community' and 'society' for which he is best known, this book rediscovers the work of Ferdinand T�nnies, providing fresh insights into his thought, which are often overlooked for want of a grasp of his background in philosophy. With attention to the fact that T�nnies always wrote from a sociological perspective, it considers the importance of the breadth of his writing on a range of subjects, including politics, philosophy, economics, and ethics, these being the foundations of social policy - a field with which T�nnies was concerned as a scholar who sought not only to understand the world but also to change it for the better. The first book to provide an accessible overview of T�nnies' work that places his thought in context, explores his key concepts, and demonstrates his continuing relevance in sociology - a discipline he helped to establish - Reintroducing Ferdinand T�nnies will appeal to scholars and students with interests in social theory, the history of sociology, and the sociology of Ferdinand T�nnies.
