Gabriel Tarde (French: [taʁd]; in full Jean-Gabriel De Tarde;[1] 12 March 1843 – 13 May 1904) was a French sociologist, criminologist and social psychologist who conceived sociology as based on small psychological interactions among individuals (much as if it were chemistry), the fundamental forces being imitation and innovation.
