From Social History to the History of Society

Hobsbawm, E. J.

Daedalus, 100, 1, 20-45, Win 71

Social history which once stood at the periphery of the historian's concern is now at the center. This has meant a new respect for certain kinds of data, necessitated new kinds of documentation, and given rise to new institutionalized fields of inquiry such as demography and kinship, social classes and social groups, modernization and industrialization.
