For the past fifty years anxiety over naturalism has driven debates in
social theory. One side sees social science as another kind of natural
science, while the other rejects the possibility of objective and
explanatory knowledge. Interpretation and Social Knowledge suggests a
different route, offering a way forward for an antinaturalist
sociology that overcomes the opposition between interpretation and
explanation and uses theory to build concrete, historically specific
causal explanations of social phenomena.
