Abstract
While Donald Levine was a well-known ethnographer and Ethiopianist, he was justly famous as one of the most brilliant social theorists of the twentieth century. Aside from being one of the most prominent scholars to analyze the work of Georg Simmel, Levine wrote five very important books on social theory, and served as editor of the University of Chicago Press’s Heritage of Sociology series for over two decades. Up to his death in April 2015, just a couple of months shy of his 84th birthday, Levine worked hard to complete his last book, Dialogical Social Theory, which will soon be published.
