Max Weber:
“…the sociologist constructs type-constructs and seeks to formulate general statements about what happens. This is in contrast with the historian, who aims to provide causal analysis and an assessment of individual culturally significant actions, social systems and persons.
…the very abstract nature of the concepts of sociology means that they must be relatively lacking in content as compared with the concrete realities of history. What sociology can offer in return is greater conceptual clarity.”
