Abstrakt
Review of Jiří Šubrt's monograph: The Perspective of Historical Sociology. The review discusses Šubrt's history and analysis of the field of historical-sociology, and the position of the individual in the field.
Subrt chronicles the precursors and development of historical-sociology, as well as the sometimes conflicting internal relationship between historiography and sociology. The difficulty Subrt strives to solve is this: how does historical-sociology settle the fundamental differences in approach, methodology, and character of historiography and sociology?
