520 _aThis article presents the different stages of Émile Durkheim’s reception in North America, beginning in?1895 and particularly for The Division of Labour in Society, at the Chicago School, and at the Department of Sociology at Harvard University. It evokes, after?1950, his double visibility with Suicide, which popularizes multivariate analysis in quantitative research but is the subject of critical discussions, as well as with The Elementary Forms and ritual. New translations allow to access the entire work (on education, politics, morality, theory of knowledge, religion). And it is microsociology that maintains and renews its influence in the United States. In French?speaking Quebec, sociologists trained in the United States consider it to be the best introduction to the theoretical approach in sociology. The sociology of knowledge developed there is inspired by É.?Durkheim’s approach to collective representations and culture. The article also shows the renewal of Durkheimian studies since?1970, with the creation of an international research network (Durkheimian Studies Group in France, linked to the History of Sociology Research Committee of the International Sociological Association; Durkheimian Studies/Études durkheimiennes; Canadian Network of Durkheimian Studies/Réseau canadien d’études durkheimienne, etc.). It concludes with the current debates around É.?Durkheim’s work (judaism, liberalism, colonialism, feminism, postmodernism, cultural sociology, pragmatism, religion).
