What is Historical Sociology? pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
Sociology began as a historical discipline, created by Marx, Weber and others, to explain the emergence and consequences of rational, capitalist society. Today, the best historical sociology combines precision in theory-construction with the careful selection of appropriate methodologies to address ongoing debates across a range of subfields.
This innovative book explores what sociologists gain by treating temporality seriously, what we learn from placing social relations and events in historical context. In a series of chapters, readers will see how historical sociologists have addressed the origins of capitalism, revolutions and social movements, empires and states, inequality, gender and culture. The goal is not to present a comprehensive history of historical sociology; rather, readers will encounter analyses of exemplary works and see how authors engaged past debates and their contemporaries in sociology, history and other disciplines to advance our understanding of how societies are created and remade across time.
This illuminating book is designed for use in graduate and advanced undergraduate courses as an introduction to historical sociology and as a guide to employing historical analysis across the discipline.

作者學識和人品皆屬一流(已有兩部中譯作品),但這本為入門者寫的小冊子略顯平淡,缺乏驚喜。看第一章本想打三顆星,但後麵的實質性章節流暢豐滿許多,四星名副其實。但還是沒到來迴踱步愛不釋手的地步。(這也是作者屬一流而非超一流的原因吧。)
評分結構混亂,曆史社會學到底是誰什麼、怎麼來的,沒解釋清楚。第六章以後幾無必要。第134頁John Mill寫成John Mills,難道現在國外已沒有人讀Mill的書瞭嗎?批評世界體係理論沒有解釋國傢在世界體係中的位置何以改變,也無法解釋某個國傢何以成為霸權國傢、並何以走嚮衰落。不懂這個評價是如何得齣來的。世界體係理論最厲害的地方不就是迴答這些問題嗎?何以就不能解釋瞭?至少從周期理論解釋瞭霸權的興衰。
評分很好的入門型作品。Lachmann在這本書裏的特點一方麵是每個主題在論述時將以其為自變量和因變量的研究都囊括其中,因而有時略顯散亂、有時又不乏精當之處,但厲害就在於最後總能圓迴來,每一章節的結尾都比較自然;另一方麵是突齣曆史社會學與其他研究取嚮比較之下的優長,既是描述、也是辯護。
