DIE GESETZLOSIGKEIT UND EIGENGESETZLICHKEIT STIRNERS UND SIMMELS INDIVIDUELLES GESETZ. STIRNERS EINFLUSS AUF SIMMEL UND DESSEN STIRNER-REZEPTION

In most of his published works, Georg Simmel dealt with themes which were also motives of concern for Stirner, such as the One and society, the individual and genre, social formations and domination, the problem of duty, egoism versus communism. Contradictions and parallelisms to Stirnerian motifs can be found in Simmel’s thought since its early stages. Starting with an analysis of whether or not these are direct references to Stirner, this paper intends to show the relation between these thinkers and the possibility of a direct influence on Simmel by Stirner, namely in regards to their common idea of “individual law”.
