Georges Gurvitch  

Definition

  • Georges Gurvitch grew up in Russia, but he spent a significant part of his professional life in France, where he succeeded to Émile Durkheim's (1858–1917) chair in sociology at the Sorbonne. Gurvitch, intrigued by the fusion of simultaneous manifestation of law in various forms and at various levels of social interaction, searched for the “real” basis of law.
