Abstract

Abstract. This article aims to provide insights to frame the universality in a sociological perspective. The introductory part emphasizes that the universality should not be understood teleologically as a historical necessity or an expression of a higher rationality, while the rest of the article retraces some of the key points and developments of the classical period in order to contribute to consolidating and relaunching a universalistic sociological perspective.

Keywords: Universality, Differences, Evolutionism, Marx, Bourdieu

Abstract. L’articolo intende fornire spunti di riflessione per mettere a tema l’universale in prospettiva sociologica. La parte introduttiva rimarca come l’universale stesso non vada inteso teleologicamente come necessità storica o espressione di una razionalità superiore, mentre lo svolgimento successivo ripercorre alcuni snodi e momenti della stagione classica per offrire un contributo utile a consolidare e rilanciare una prospettiva sociologica di tipo universalista.

Parole chiave: Universale, Differenze, Evoluzionismo, Marx, Bourdieu
