Suffering and evil : the Durkheimian legacy : essays in commemoration of the 90th anniversary of Durkheim's death

Until recently the subject of suffering and evil was neglected in the sociological world and is almost absent in Durkheimian studies as well. This book aims to fill the gap, with particular reference to the Durkheimian tradition.
