Half of the material included in this edition of Simmel's writings represents new translations. This includes Simmel's important, lengthy, and previously untranslated 'Group Expansion and Development of Individuality,' as well as three selections from his most neglected work, Philosophy of Money; in addition, the introduction to Probleme der Geschichtsphilosophie, chapter one of the Lebensanschauung, and three essays are translated for the first time.
Social Forms. In everyday social life, we often focus on the content of our social interactions with others—for example, “what is the right thing way to react to my boss’ outlandish work demands?” or “what the heck was my husband thinking when he said that to me?”But, for Simmel, the task of the sociologist was less about looking at the contents that distinguish types of social. The book Georg Simmel on Individuality and Social Forms, Georg Simmel is published by University of Chicago Press. Georg Simmel on Individuality and Social Forms. Edited and with an introduction by Donald N. Chicago: University of Chicago Press. Forms of social interaction which, in their recurrence, define social types such as the stranger, the miser and spendthrift, the adventurer, the poor. But typified social interaction does not exhaust social forms. Permutations of human experience yield.

Form And Content Simmel
Georg Simmel was a major German sociologist, philosopher, and critic.
Simmel was one of the first generation of German sociologists: his neo-Kantian approach laid the foundations for sociological antipositivism, asking 'What is society?' in a direct allusion to Kant's question 'What is nature?', presenting pioneering analyses of social individuality and fragmentation. For Simmel, culture referred to 'the cultivation of individuals through the agency of external forms which have been objectified in the course of history'. Simmel discussed social and cultural phenomena in terms of 'forms' and 'contents' with a transient relationship; form becoming content, and vice versa, dependent on the context. In this sense he was a forerunner to structura...more

Georg Simmel Social Forms
“The calculative exactness of practical life which the money economy has brought about corresponds to the ideal of natural science: to transform the world by mathematical formulas. Only money economy has filled the days of so many people with weighing, calculating, with numerical determinations, with a reduction of qualitative values to quantitative ones.”
