Sociologists show growing interest in history and historical methods. Historical sociology is quite a new and vivid discipline, which is based on complementary methods of sociology and history. Besides, the authoress tries to show that in research strategies and interests of sociologists, who are not explicit historical sociologists, there is a tendency to use historical methods and explanations. In recent years, analyses of the Polish systemic change become more historical with more references to the past. Polish transformation is seen as an element in context of Western modernization and globalization. It is a mix of Western development model with elements typical to a periphery of capitalist world system and specific local characteristics. Polish sociologists gradually recognize the role of unique, contingent, historical versions of universal processes in explaining contemporary Poland. This interest, though is still small and of minor importance, shall grow in the future, as it may contribute to better understanding of Polish society and its problems.

The purpose of the article is to analyse Immanuel Wallerstein's approach towards social change and to compare it with the concept of macrosocial change in modernization theories. The main thesis proposed by the authoress is that although Immanuel Wallerstein declares that perception of social change as framed by the 'ahistorical models' (such bias being typical of modernization theories) should be abandoned, he nevertheless advances a model which is equally ahistorical..

This paper is dedicated to examining the multidisciplinary nature of contemporary historical sociology. First, the text discusses how multidisciplinarity is understood in the field. In particular, to what extent historical sociology can be considered to be an interdisciplinary field, and, by contrast, how much it is dominated by other forms of interdisciplinary cooperation – transdisciplinarity and multidisciplinarity. While the first part of the study focuses on the elaboration of multidisciplinary issues in the context of the development of the social sciences, the second part of the text focuses on the main types of multidisciplinarity. The dominant conception of the multidisciplinary approach in modern historical sociology is illustrated by using the example of seven major publications. On this basis we would like to argue that: (1) researchers in this field of research have not yet explicitly addressed the delimitation of the multidisciplinary nature of their discipline, (2) the concept of historical sociology presented does not correspond with the concept of inter-disciplinarity, (3) multidisciplinarity in historical sociology varies between multidisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity.

The article is an attempt to discuss the idea of risk society from the perspective of historical sociology or, to be more precise, the theory of social becoming developed by Piotr Sztompka. In this sense, the societal reality of risk society seems to be characterized by a specific innate dynamism rendering possible the discrepancy between objective volume of experienced risk and the perceived intensity of social uncertainty. This process can be expressed in terminology based upon the notion of the 'historical coefficient' postulating that the morphogenesis of risk society resembles a series of historical processes of conflict and negotiation in which individuals exercise their agency in the context of determining - both constraining and enabling - influence of history. In this context, the dynamic character of risk society may be discussed in terms of the Social Amplification of Risk Framework which tries to unveil the social nature of technological risk amplification and attenuation. The principal role in the process of risk amplification is granted to environmentalist social movements which may act as 'amplification stations', shaping social responses to technological risk in the reality of risk society.

The article discusses the relationship between sociology and history in three steps. The first part compares the opinions of researchers who believe that the dividing line between sociology and history should be transcended (Giddens, Abrams) and those who fundamentally disagree with this view (Goldthorpe). The second part looks back in time to show the reciprocal ties between history and sociology as they gradually grew apart and then drew closer again, leading to the emergence of historical (comparative) sociology. The third part deals with the subject of social change, which is viewed as a key problem in historical sociology, and is also seen as an area of research where sociology and history should join forces to address social issues.

This article concentrates on the development and interests of theoretical (general) sociology in the Czech Republic during the period 1990–2010. It examines the consequences of the postmodern influence and attempts to establish a ‘critical sociology’. Its main focus is summarising the key books and texts on the relevant theoretical areas (historical sociology, theoretical foundations of qualitative sociology, grounded theory, feminism, gender studies, and sociology of politics, etc.) The author sees the possible advancement of theoretical sociology in the growing interest of young scholars in general sociology and in critical sociology (often inspired by neo-Marxism). The article is also concerned with ‘sociological rhetoric’ and the essay form of writing.
