The incomplete paper by Max Weber, Georg Simmel as Sociologist is published for the first time in Italian. The author of the introduction treats this publication - that he edited and whose translation from German he supervised - as an occasion to underline the importance of the relationship between Weber and Simmel and to briefly summarize the complex debate emerged from the studies- now numerous-on this topic. Moreover he poses some interrogative about the interpretation proposed in 1972 by D.N. Levine regarding Weber's ideas on the issue of «objectivity» in Simmel, at the time of the publication of the same paper on the American journal «Social Research». [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
