"Winner of the European Amalfi Prize for Sociology and Social Theory"--Dust cover
内容説明・目次
内容説明
This book sets out to dismantle the idea that movements, crises and other phenomena produced in society must be explained by exclusively social causes, without recourse to psychological explanations. Moscovici suggests that, although this idea is still prevalent in the social sciences today, it is in reality a rigid, prejudiced and outdated myth. He argues that, whilst psychological causes are undoubtedly distinct from social causes, all social phenomena are events or facts brought about human beings - it is their passions which stimulate their great political, religious and cultural creations. Moscovici asks why these passions - whatever form they might take: sacrifice, agitation, community or revolution - arise, and how they transform a mass of individuals into a genuine collectivity. To answer these questions, he argues, we must look for psychological explanations. He throws new light on the work of Durkheim, Weber and Simmel, showing how far the purely sociological explanation of social phenomena remains an ideal. This book won the European Amalfi Prize for sociology and social Theory 1988.
It should be of interest to students and researchers in the social sciences and psychology.
