With a new foreword by Charles Lemert
.
'Its greatness...lies in ceaseless and varied use of the money form to unearth and conceptually reveal incommensurabilities of all kinds, in social reality fully as much as in thought itself.' - Fredric Jameson
.
In The Philosophy of Money, Georg Simmel puts money on the couch. He provides us with a classic analysis of the social, psychological and philosophical aspects of the money economy, full of brilliant insights into the forms that social relationships take. He analyzes the relationships of money to exchange, human personality, the position of women, and individual freedom. Simmel also offers us prophetic insights into the consequences of the modern money economy and the division of labour, in particular the processes of alienation and reification in work and urban life.

An immense and profound piece of work it demands to be read today and for years to come as a stunning account of the meaning, use and culture of money.
Georg Simmel (1858-1918) was born in Berlin, the youngest of seven children. He studied philosophy and history at the University of Berlin and was one of the first generation of great German sociologists that included Max Weber.
今年是德国社会学家格奥尔格·西美尔(Georg Simmel)逝世100周年。西美尔,中文也将其译作“齐美尔”。在风起云涌的20世纪,他的知识遗产并未掀起大风浪,与马克思、韦伯和涂尔干相比在社会影响或学术声望上略显逊色。不过,他仍然是最经典的社会学家之一,所提出的“形式社会...
评分不了解为什么还要出这个本子。华夏的本子质量应该有保证,译者为治德国哲学或西美尔的年轻学者,可惜译本语言太晦涩。不懂德语,所以不敢断定是谁的错。目前这个是英汉对照,是从英文译出的?那就没必要了。原文即是德文,那看汉译与英译有什么大区别?难道英语比汉语更接近德...
评分今天,不会有人怀疑,用鸦片换商品是一种残忍的贸易战形式。 但是,今天,很少有人怀疑,用符号换商品是一种残忍的贸易战形式。 至少,中国的经济学家和中国的管理层就绝不怀疑。 当美国和日本再一次竞相推出量化宽松货币政策的时候,我们没有意识到这是在进行一场全新的贸易战...
评分据说马克思写《资本论》时正好患了痈症,身体的骚乱令心中无名火起,对资本主义发泄了更为尖刻的批判。按照这类心理分析传记学的逻辑,西美尔写《货币哲学》时对资本主义显得十分温和,是否因为他的身体状态十分良好呢? 心理分析传记学的逻辑会让人感到好笑,但另一种与心理分...
评分货币,现代生活中最不能无视的内容。以它之名,彼此疏远、甚至互相鄙视之物也有了点儿共同语言。它是获得个性化生存所必须过的那座桥吗?还是最理想的栖居场所?
毫无疑问。
评分觉得有点从本质主义向现象论的味道……
评分哲学的角度思考货币,facinating!
评分Simmel的理论高度比不上黑格尔、马克思、韦伯,高度“印象派”的写作方式也让整本书显得相当松散,但其中的很多段落中却时不时迸发出美妙而独特的思想火花,也是很有意思。
评分三刷。整体其实很紧凑、节奏非常好,不过必须从头读起。齐美尔这部书是彻头彻尾的印象派。如果强行找概念体系,或者抓社会历史对号入座,那还是别读了。
