One of the main theses that Émile Durkheim (1858-1917) defended is that the reality of society is something separate from the reality of individuals, which led to accusations of glorifying society as a mythical entity superior to the individual and associating his name with totalitarian ideologies. A careful reading of The Suicide, a classic work in the field of sociology, makes clear the unfairness of these criticisms, and that the philosophical deviations he committed are of lesser importance compared to the stimulating clarity of his theoretical vision and the thoroughness of his empirical investigations. Émile Durkheim, within the limited frame of reference of the great masters of social science alongside Max Weber and Karl Marx, has been one of the most influential in shaping this discipline as a science, rigorously defining its specific object and its own methods.
