Summary:In this paper, I consider the relation between Dorothy E. Smith’s critical sociology and Durkheim’s understanding of society through Randle J. Hart and Andrew McKinnon’s text entitled as Sociological Epistemology: Durkheim’s Paradox and Dorothy E. Smith’s Actuality in which these authors favour the reflections of this theoretician as a more objective, direct and actual form of description of the social reality compared to those offered by Emile Durkheim. Special attention is given to their critique of Durkheim’s dualism and their reference on intersubjectivity and consensuality of reflexive sociology which does not see the social world in the binary form (individuality- sociability). Main thesis of this paper is that the analysis of these two sociologists have neglected Durkheim’s own insights on this issue, and that, on the other hand, some of the critical remarks related to Durkheim’s sociological position can already be read in the works of his contemporaries within the classical sociological discourse.
