(1963) Philosophy and ideology, Dordrecht, Springer.
Since the last quarter of the nineteenth century, philosophers and historians have been involved in the controversy as to whether history provides knowledge sui generis or is a branch of science. philosophers who support the latter alternative justify their view by a logical examination of the subject-matter and methods of history, which leads them to the conclusion that the reasons advanced for a sharp differentiation of history from science are untenable. This is also the view adopted by Marxist-Leninists but they reach it by a method of their own.
