Career overview


Born in Paris, Cochin was the son of Denys Cochin, a Parisian deputy in the National Assembly with ties to the Vatican, and the grandson of Augustin Cochin, a French politician and writer.[3] His Catholic upbringing helped him to remain detached from the French Revolution and study it historically in a new light.[4]

Cochin studied the Revolution from a sociological perspective, cultivated from his interest in the work of Émile Durkheim,[5] and he sought to look at the revolution from a social perspective.[6][7] François Furet believed that Cochin's work worked towards an analysis of two objectives: “a sociology of the production and role of democratic ideology, and a sociology of political manipulation and machines.”[8]

Cochin was drafted into service in World War I in 1914, and he was wounded four times in service before being killed on 8 July 1916 at Maricourt, Somme.[9]

His sometime collaborator, Charles Charpentier, worked with Cochin's family towards posthumous publication of his works.
