"The Division of Labor in Society" is one of the four basic works of Emile Durkheim (1858-1917), considered a classic of sociology and one of the founding fathers of this discipline. Many researchers believe that it occupies a special place in Durkheim's work because it contains an exposition of the main elements of his sociological theory. This book is essential for anyone who wants to delve into the secrets of sociology and understand the mechanisms governing society.

The theory of social bonds, presented in the book, analyzes how societies maintain cohesion despite differences and divisions. Durkheim distinguishes different types of societies, from societies with mechanical solidarity, characterized by strong social bonds and the similarity of individuals, to societies with organic solidarity, where social bonds are based on mutual dependence and specialization of individuals.

The concept of anomie, also discussed in the book, refers to a state of lack of norms and values in society, which leads to disorientation and a sense of loss of individuals. Durkheim analyzes how the division of labor can lead to anomie if it is not properly regulated and controlled. This book is a valuable source of knowledge for students, researchers and all those interested in sociology and the social sciences.
