About this product

Product Information

This introductory book provides a major reappraisal of the relations between history and the social science.While historians and social scientists have not always been the best of neighbours, in recent years there has been a growing convergence between history and the various disciplines of the social sciences. As the practice of historical research has become influenced by sociology, anthropology and social theory, so too the social sciences have become increasingly historical in character.Peter Burke, who has played a central role in this convergence, sets out to answer what he calls two deceptively simple questions: what is the use of social theory to historians, and what is the use of history to social theorists? He discusses the emergence of the respective disciplines, the relevance of sociological concepts and methods for historians, and the relevance of historical methods and results for sociologists. He also examines the most recent developments in the areas of historical sociology and the new history , including women's history, microhistory and the history of everyday life. The discussion of concepts and methods is supplemented by the analysis of a selection of case studies, including works by Braudel, Le Roy Ladurie, Elias, Foucault and Sahlins.

Item was just as described (near new) and I had excellent communication with this seller. The item arrived much sooner than expected, which was a nice surprise. The only downside was the item could have been packaged better as the packaging was torn in places, exposing the the dust jacket of the book when I received it. Overall, a positive transaction.

Package arrived as would expect in good condition & promptly from when ordered all items in great condition & as or as described in the description & for a good descent price & what better recomendation for a seller who provided a standard of service expected not just in a reasonable prompt delivery, price, & also a satisfied satisfaction in the quality of the items previously supported & recommended by other customer recommendations from ebay feedback but to want to be a repeat customer.
