The Nature of Sympathy

German sociologist and social philosopher Scheler (1874-1928) rejects mass movement politics and liberal individualism as incompatible with the individual person as the first and foremost element of the ontological order. Zur ph瓣nomenologie der Sympathiegef羹hle und von Liebe und Hass was first published in 1913, but this translation, by Peter Heath, is based on subsequent editions titled Wesen und Formen der Sympathie.
