✦ Synopsis


This paper reviews recent interpretive trends among historians of anthropology and sociology, examining both introductory texts and scholarly studies. It focuses on works published over the last ten years, and stresses that there has been no resolution of the long-standing conflict between "presentist" and "historicist" approaches to the history of the human sciences. α­§ 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

  1. This paper discusses only works published in English, and is practically confined to the situation found in the United States-though I doubt that my findings would have been very different had I attempted a wider purview.
