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.
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.
除了吐槽之外,我还是再写点正经的吧。 ff老师说这本书对于她的启发在于,要去寻找历史事件发生背后的结构。刚才看到笔记人老师说,这本书对于他的意义主要在于,历史学家能从人类学家那里学到什么。但对我来说,这本书的价值在于给那些通过不同的途径生产出来的知识找一个各...
評分我接触休厄尔这本书的时间不算早,之前在课上和其他作品中大致知道了一些这本书中的观点。后来写毕业论文时又找来翻过了一遍,以求能寻找一些灵感。中译本出来时很是兴奋,但读过第一章后,觉得这本书的翻译暂时没有符合我原有的期待。 不过先要肯定两位译者非常用心。凡是做过...
評分看到mujun这么评论这本书:Sewell对于文化、社会、事件、结构等概念的理解一脉相承。弄明白一个基本也就搞清楚他的思路了。他并不是要给这些概念再提出一套自己的理论,只是要为那些想把“文化”和“社会史”写到一起去,想把“结构”和“行动”写到一起去的人提供一套切实可行...
評分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...
評分豆瓣公開課第一份資料~第八章
评分曆史社會學:結構的崩潰與轉型。結構與能動性相互構成,結構的縫隙帶來市民社會能動性的可能,集體的能動性則帶來結構的變革。
评分Sewell的總結能力太好瞭,像個編字典的人(雖然好奇為什麼全書沒引一個Latour) . 喜歡他對Charles Tilly和Marshall Sahlins的解讀,尤其是後者,Islands of History如當頭一棒
评分:無
评分不同學科的人對這本書的評價很不一樣,跟與這本書有關的學術史有關,也跟各學科方法和材料-立論-分析之間的度有關。如何理解和評價是個有些意思的話題。|休爺您就不能不那麼羅嗦麼?完全可以化約節省至少四分之一的篇幅也講得清誒
