Society of Individuals | Norbert Elias
1 post
This volume consists of three essays. In each, Elias takes the discussion of 'individual' versus 'society' to a new level, demonstrating that individualisation is an inherent component of the personal socialisation process and of ingenerational civilising processes, exploding the myth of the 'We-less ego'. NORBERT ELIAS (1897-1990) was one of the greatest sociologists of the twentieth century. His whole oeuvre is now appearing in new scholarly editions in the Collected Works in English. ROBERT VAN KRIEKEN is Professor of Sociology at University College Dublin.
