title = "Defining Structure and Agency in the work of Georg Simmel.",
abstract = "This study offers a definition, description, analytical theorisation and critical discussion concerning the relationship between structure and agency in the work of Georg Simmel. This study belongs to the wider social-theoretical conversation regarding the definition of the connection between society and the individual. The central question that this research is trying to answer is the following: why do people produce different responses or reactions when they face similar social circumstances? Every individual interacts in a certain manner with oneself and society. If we will manage to decode the way that this interaction is taking place then we might be able to understand the way structure and agency relate. Simmel's theory offers the basic means to understand how this interaction is formed.",
