Основываясь на взглядах о социологии городского пространства, нашедших отражение в работах таких авторов, как Георг Зиммель, Макс Вебер, Фердинанд Тённис, Роберт Парк, Эрнст Бёрджесс и др., в статье рассматриваются характеристики современного городского соседского сообщества. Есть основания пересмотреть мнение представителей Чикагской школы об утере сообществом своих уникальных свойств. В представленной работе территориальное общественное самоуправление (ТОС) рассматривается как возможная организационно-правовая форма соседской общины. Авторы выделяют перечень функциональных задач ТОС и отмечают схожесть со «свободной общиной». муниципальная политика, городское сообщество, соседская община, теория свободной общины, местное самоуправление, муниципалитет, территориальное общественное самоуправление (ТОС), вопросы местного значения Based on the views of urban sociology as reflected in the works of such authors as Georg Simmel, Max Weber, Ferdinand Tönnies, Robert Park, Ernest Burgess etc, this article considers possibilities of modern urban neighbourhood community, its unique properties which were previously lost according to the Chicago school. They include both properties of a traditional community and an economic operator. With consolidation of separate power bases, it becomes an element of the unified system of public authorities. In the presented work local public self-government (LPSG) is considered as a possible institutional-legal form of a neighbourhood community. The authors analyse characteristics of the LPSG in Russia and reveal its identity to the characteristics of the “free community”. The authors allocate a list of the functional tasks, the solving of which characterises residents of one or several houses, self-organised in the form of LPSG. By gathering into the LPSG citizens represent a specific entity of the dialog between people and the authorities therefore ensure the effectiveness of local issues solution process. municipal policy, neighbourhood community, the free community theory, local self-government (LPSG), municipality, local public self-government, local issues

In this article, I deal with nostalgia as an implicit category in the 19th-century German sociological discourses. I draw on the approaches that argue that sociology can be seen as a nostalgic social science since the sociologists? discourses were focused on the issues of causes, characteristics, and consequences of the modern age for individuals and society. Trying to explicate modern society, usually by comparing it to the premodern forms of social order, modern sociologists shaped dichotomous categories that were used for the definition of basic sociological concepts, one of the typical ones being the dichotomy between modern society and traditional communities. I here argue that modern sociologists constructed their theories in relation to the idea of a lack or loss, i.e. in relation to the question of what the modern society left behind during its growth: community, spirit or freedom. An alternative, a solution, or simply a utopian object for making comparison are found exactly in the object that is lost - in the nostalgic reflection on those aspects of humanity that were no longer possible in the modern age. Hence, I argue that modern sociology can be defined as a certain discourse on social loss. This will be elaborated on the examples of theories of Ferdinand Tonnies, Max Weber, and Georg Simmel.

Herbert Bauer, known to the world as Béla Balázs (1894–1949), led the sort of life about which contemporary intellectuals might fantasize. He knew everyone and he did everything. Born in Hungary, he included György Lukács, Karl Mannheim, Arnold Hauser, Béla Bartók, and Zoltán Kodály in his circle, among others. He knew the filmmakers Alexander Korda and Michael Curtiz before their names were Anglicized. He studied with Georg Simmel and met Max Weber. As time went on, he came, so it seems, to know virtually every major European intellectual—Stefan Zweig, Robert Musil, Walter Benjamin, Sergei Eisenstein, Erwin Piscator, and on and on. He lived in the midst of a universe of conversation that dazzles us as we look back enviously upon it.

Resumo Este artigo se propõe, de uma maneira não exaustiva, a apresentar e discutir em quais componentes do pensamento sociológico de Georg Simmel e Max Weber podemos identificar a atuação de uma sensibilidade trágica na abordagem dos processos conformadores da cultura moderna. No primeiro, identificamos o “ponto de vista trágico” enquanto ambivalência e uma pressuposição de autocontradição fundamental inscrita nos processos e fenômenos constitutivos do estilo de vida moderno. No segundo, esforçamo-nos em exprimir como o trágico emerge, de maneira surpreendente, irônica e indesejada, das consequências não previstas e não intencionais da ação dos agentes.

Insight Into

The topic of this imaginary dialogue between Georg Simmel and Max Weber is the relation between work – in the sense of labour – and personality. Its aim is to show that the thinking of these ‘founding fathers’ of sociology can furnish valuable insight into the current issue of the corrosion of character in contemporary post-Fordist society. The concept of work still represents one of the major factors determining modern individuals’ ability (or inability) to formulate personal, stable identities that enable them to become fully socialized. Both Simmel and Weber make reference to a common theoretical background that views the human being as a creature with originally rational potential, who is faced with the task of becoming a personality by means of consciously chosen life behaviour: This is evident in the parallelism between Simmel’s interest in the concept of ‘style of life’ ( Der Stil des Lebens) and Weber’s research on the ‘life conduct’ ( Lebensführung) that arose in Western rationalistic culture.

The City

In 2015, one hundred years passed since Robert Park penned his seminal article “The City: Suggestions for the investigation of human behaviour in the city environment” in the American Journal of Sociology. It provided an agenda for the Chicago school of urban sociology, which came to shape urban research for decades to come. Since 1915 much has changed, both in the urban world itself and in the urban research that reflects on those transformations. In today’s world of global cities, cities around the world have undergone dramatic development, and nowhere as dramatic as in China. In the world of urban research, Park’s human ecology approach has lost the appeal that it once had. Against this background, in this book specialists on urban China reflect on the relevance of Park’s article on “The City” – for cities in China, for urban research, and for questions about studying the social life of the city. The aim of the book is to take Park’s article as a point of departure for critical reflection on both the research on urban China and on the issues that Chinese cities face. The book offers readers a timely respite from the eruption of urban China research, to reflect on what the city in China contributes to urban studies more generally. Despite the shared starting point, the contributors represent a range of perspectives that would disrupt any notion of monolithic “Chinese school” while also pointing the way towards recurrent challenges, topics and approaches relevant for a contemporary urbanism.

The Great War

Initially, the Great War was received euphorically by many writers and philosophers, including Max Weber, Martin Buber and Max Scheler along with Georg Simmel. For Simmel, the war was synonimous with a greater pace of life, a form of dealing with / overcoming the levelling of society caused by the worshipping of money (´Mammonismus`). This exaltation of the war on the part of intellectuals was not common to all – the harsh criticisms of Simmel´s enthusiasm for the war on the part of Georg Lucácz and Ernst Bloch are well-known. Regarding Stefan George, in 1901 Simmel had written: ´His art has been known since its beginning for the wish to act exclusively like an art (...) the fundamental change is complete: that on the contrary, all content is merely the means for forming values that are purely aesthetics.` Therefore, in the aesthetic of Stefan George, Simmel acknowledges the reason that George will reject the war – contrary to many members of George´s circle (George-Kreis) and has its expression in the poem ´The War`, first published in 1917. This contribution seeks to demonstrate the philosophical and aesthetical reasons for enthusiasm for the war and its rejection by Simmel and George, attitudes that are not able to be explained by the opposition to militarism/pacifism that is normally deployed to distinguish between supporters and critics of the war.

Em meio a diferentes usos possíveis, o termo “modernidade” já foi empregado no sentido de designar a “mentalidade de uma época” que, dentre outras coisas, teria como uma de suas principais marcas a crença no conhecimento como forma de domínio da natureza e do fluxo histórico e, assim sendo, uma ferramenta de emancipação do homem. Trata-se de uma conjuntura na qual se pregava o triunfo da razão sobre o devir, uma forma de compreensão social crente na proeminência da razão sobre o mundo, sugerindo um nexo específico entre razão e história que aqui será problematizado. Posto isso, este ensaio pretende realizar um itinerário bibliográfico voltado para a apreensão dos saberes sociológicos que estiveram envolvidos com esse tema. Mais especificamente, objetiva realizar uma exegese a partir dos trabalhos de Georg Simmel, Max Weber e Norbert Elias, tomando esses trabalhos não só como modos de interpretação por meio dos quais o nexo entre razão e história tornou-se sociologicamente “inteligível”, mas, sobretudo, como modos de compreensão social que informam consciências e que, na medida em que o fazem, participam da constituição do mesmo nexo.
