‘This timely book offers a rich critical reflection on Simmel’s lesser known later works. It is a hugely enjoyable read: a lively yet serious engagement that reinvigorates those texts, and compels the reader to revisit Simmel’s oeuvre with new questions in mind. David Beer offers us a powerful evocation of the detail, depth and range of Simmel’s imaginative thinking and how it might inspire us in the present.’ —Martin Hand, Queen's University, Canada This book draws upon the work of Georg Simmel to explore the limits, tensions and dynamism of social life through a close analysis of the works produced in the final years of his life and reveals what they might still offer some 100 years later. Focusing on the relationships between worlds, lives and fragments in these works, David Beer opens up a conceptual toolkit for understanding life as both an individual experience and as a deeply social phenomenon. Taking the reader through artistic and musical forms of inspiration, to the problems of culture and on to the conceptual understanding of lived experience, the book illuminates the richness of Simmel’s ideas and thinking. This sophisticated dialogue with Simmel’s lesser known later works will provide fresh insights for students and scholars of cultural and social theory and pave the way for a reinvigorated engagement with his ideas. David Beer is Professor of Sociology at the University of York, UK. His previous books include The Data Gaze (2018), Metric Power (2016) and Punk Sociology(2014).

"This book explores the possibility of drawing upon a punk ethos to inspire sociology and to cultivate a vibrant future for the discipline. Aiming to fire the sociological imaginations of sociologists at any stage of their careers, from new students to established professors, it uses punk to think creatively about what sociology is and how it might be conducted. Following a succinct outline of the disciplinary and social challenges that sociology faces today, the book then applies the punk ethos to sociological knowledge, communication and terrain. The concept of punk sociology is developed through a series of riffs, each of which directly applies key features of the punk ethos to sociology. "Punk Sociology" encourages sociologists to avoid the temptation to play it safe. Instead it calls for us to be bold, open, inventive, and to produce raw, stripped back and fearless work that adheres to a do-it-yourself ethic"--Publisher description.

Wie kann ökonomische Bildung dazu befähigen, angesichts der von Menschen verursachten sozialen und ökologischen Krisen eine nachhaltige Transformation unseres Wirtschaftssystems zu gestalten? Der Autor bereitet Modelle aus der Ökologischen Ökonomie und Umweltökonomie für Bildungsprozesse auf, analysiert Präkonzepte von Studierenden der Ökonomischen Bildung und führt fachwissenschaftliche Modelle und Lernendenvorstellungen zu Seminarkonzepten zusammen. Löw Beer argumentiert jedoch hinsichtlich seiner normativen Setzungen durchgehend transparent und selbstreflexiv, sodass die Arbeit zur weiteren Auseinandersetzung und vertieften Beschäftigung mit ökonomischen Bildung für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung anregt und für alle in der ökonomischen Bildung Lehrenden eine Bereicherung darstellt.
