Abstract
"Relationship" is an important term in the work of Georg Simmel (1858 - 1918). Simmel used this or familiar term to describe completely different processes and structures. In this essay attempts will be made to apply the concept of relationship to the work of Simmel itself. The aim is to demonstrate particularly interesting links between Simmel's philosophy, sociology and pedagogy. The intention of the essay is not to give extensive interpretations of Simmel’s philosophy, sociology and pedagogy, but to show in general terms that at least four Simmel's ideas create a strong relationship between his philosophy, sociology and pedagogy. The results of analysis demonstrate that there is relationship between Simmel’s philosophy, sociology and pedagogy and it is possible to find many developments, transformations and sometimes surprising variations of the theme.
Highlights
Three Simmel's hooks are focused on in the given essay: "Philosophy of Money" ("Philosophic des Geldes", 1900), "Sociology" ("Soziologie", 190 8) and "School pedagogy" ("Schulpiidagogik", 1922)
The analysis of Simmel's books demonstrates that he liked to work with these suppositions.But this does not mean that you can find only repetitions, copies or deductions of these ideas in Sim mel's philosophy, sociology and pedagogy. fn fact, you can find many developments, transforma tions and sometimes surprising variations of them
Step[1]: the author explainsrhe philosophical form of the said four ideas. After that he describes how the given ideas are transformed in Simmel's sociol ogy and in Simmel's school pedagogy(step3)
Summary
Is it the structure of a house: with one fundament, with one entrance, with a hierarchy of floors, with separated rooms and with one top?' Simmel's answer is: "No".His assumption is: The world is a network of small elements, which constantly interact and change. In this network all is in contact with all. The finiteness of ex istence is only transcended through the conditioning of every content of being by another content, which in turn is conditioned- either by a third factor which undergoes the same process or by an interaction of the two." (Simmel2004, 11 9)
