While social scientists and historians have been exchanging ideas for a long time, they have never developed a proper dialogue about social theory. William H. Sewell Jr. observes that on questions of theory the communication has been mostly one way: from social science to history. Logics of History argues that both history and the social sciences have something crucial to offer each other. While historians do not think of themselves as theorists, they know something social scientists do not: how to think about the temporalities of social life. On the other hand, while social scientists’ treatments of temporality are usually clumsy, their theoretical sophistication and penchant for structural accounts of social life could offer much to historians.
Renowned for his work at the crossroads of history, sociology, political science, and anthropology, Sewell argues that only by combining a more sophisticated understanding of historical time with a concern for larger theoretical questions can a satisfying social theory emerge. In Logics of History, he reveals the shape such an engagement could take, some of the topics it could illuminate, and how it might affect both sides of the disciplinary divide.
William H. Sewell Jr. is the Frank P. Hixon Distinguished Service Professor of Political Science and History at the University of Chicago. He is the author of three previous books, including Work and Revolution in France and A Rhetoric of Bourgeois Revolution.

硬着头皮读完William H. Sewell 教授的《历史的逻辑——社会理论与社会转型》，一种对你国城市规划学科的担忧油然而生。作为一个搅屎棍学科，除了灵活使用excel、word、photoshop和autocad、arcgis等软件以外，再没有什么能够与其他学科相匹敌的技能了。理论方面的建构与社会学...

William Sewell traces the rise of positivism and quantification in social history of American academia. Social historians asked new questions about new categories of people with new forms of evidence. Thus a gold mine of documentation arose, including recor...

强推，前两章的社会史/新文化史综述，对cultural turn的反思以及自己的dual structure的概念建构都值得认真反思，最后提出的return of social也是我希望踏足的领域

不同学科的人对这本书的评价很不一样，跟与这本书有关的学术史有关，也跟各学科方法和材料-立论-分析之间的度有关。如何理解和评价是个有些意思的话题。|休爷您就不能不那么罗嗦么？完全可以化约节省至少四分之一的篇幅也讲得清诶
