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.

读后感

Sewell这本书的主要目的是想把结构和行动带到一块去，把“文化”和“社会”带到一块去，以及最终是要把社会科学家和有人文学科倾向的历史学家带到一块去。他对“文化”和“结构”的理解，以及他对于事件史方法的应用，其实遵循的都是同一个思路。 不过上面那些我之前基本都已...  

去年听Sewell讲这本理论书，比看着要过瘾。一个历史学家，要写这样的书，需要勇气。当然不能强迫别的历史学家都去读这本书，有人可能不屑一顾。那么就推荐给学生看吧！ 一年级历史博士生绝对要读，原因主要有二。1）Sewell把20世纪美、英、法史学界的重要发展脉络归纳得再清楚...

我一开始对社会学产生极大的兴趣——想来可能同很多其他社会学学生一样——是上本科理论课读韦伯齐美尔一摩尔经典理论家让我脑洞大开，觉得他们既能极好的勾勒出从传统社会到现代社会的变迁，又能极犀利地铺陈出对现代社会的反思和批判。这种求知的兴趣往往到了当代理论就遇到...

豆瓣公开课第一份资料～第八章

:无

真是历史研究者必读，虽然作者是通过挖掘某些史学研究中埋藏的闪光点来把社会学家拉到历史（event）那边去，但是最该读的还是研究历史的人。对于中文学术世界里面彻底无视理论的经验主义研究者，和胡乱使用“结构”、"文化"这种社科词汇有着正本清源的作用。

这本算是告一段落了，以后有需要再看~

哇！！！抽丝剥茧，畅快淋漓！
