Reviews
After Norbert Elias and Social Theory, Francois Depelteau and Tatiana Savoia Landini continue their beautiful effort to diffuse the thought of Norbert Elias by showing its actuality with Norbert Elias and Empirical Research. With his figurational and processual sociology, the German sociologist refused the separation between the historical, the psychological, and the social, and invited the researchers not to abandon empirical inquiry. These messages have been perfectly heard by the researchers who contributed to this book. - Bernard Lahire, Professor of Sociology, Ecole Normale Superieure Lettres et Sciences Humaines, France
