From the Paper:"German sociologist, Ferdinand Tonnies, introduced Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft as sociological catergories to describe two normal types of human association. Tonnies discussed these terms in his work entitled Gemeinshaft and Gesselschaft, which was first published in 1887. His second edition, printed in 1912, was a success, and these two terms became well known, although often misunderstood, by German intellectuals, prior to 1933 ("Gemeinshaft", 2004).
