In this article we argue that Simmel's social theory has laid the groundwork for the ontology of relational emergence as propounded by critical realism. Although it has been acknowledged by many a scholar that “relationality” as such constitutes the ontological foundation of Simmel's philosophy, a disagreement regarding the nature of this relationality permeates Simmel literature. The main idea of our argument is that Simmel's approach to “relationality” is similar with how critical realists make sense of emergence and causal powers. For this goal, we specify the ways through which four basic ideas of relational emergence are developed in Simmel's work of the dyad, the triad and of the secrecy. We emphasize 1) how the ideas of the irreducibility of the relational properties and of downward causation are presented in Simmel's social theory and 11) why adopting Kantian lines of reasoning does not make him a purely Kantian thinker

Georg Simmel 和关系涌现的本体论

在本文中,我们认为齐美尔的社会理论为批判现实主义提出的关系涌现本体论奠定了基础。尽管许多学者都承认“关系”本身构成了齐美尔哲学的本体论基础,但关于这种关系的性质的分歧却渗透到齐美尔的文学作品中。我们论证的主要思想是齐美尔对“关系”的处理方式与批判现实主义者如何理解涌现和因果力量相似。为了这个目标,我们详细说明了在齐美尔的二元、三元和保密工作中发展四种关系涌现的基本思想的方式。我们强调 1) 关系性质的不可约性和向下因果关系的思想是如何在 Simmel 中提出的。
