This book reproduces the complete version of all five, with a preface by Roger Chartier, who fills in the intellectual and political context of the time. In a conversation where their intellectual closeness coupled with a clear awareness of their differences are both apparent, the sociologist and the historian tackle the progress and problems of their respective disciplines and the role of each in society.
