Through questions such as 'What is power?', 'How are revolutions generated?', 'Does public opinion really exist?' 'What does terrorism mean?' and 'When are generations created?', Words in Time scrutinises the fundamental concepts by which we confer meaning to the historical and social world and what they actually signify. This volume examines the origins and development of the words we use, critiquing the ways in which they have traditionally been employed in historical thinking and examining their potential usefulness today. Exploring new trends in the historical field of reflection, this is valuable reading for all students of historical theory and method.
