    Would you agree with the theory that society has a structure and history is only a process of realizing that structure? I came across this the other day and I would tend to agree with it.

    I don't think I'm clever enough to understand the premise, let alone offer an opinion on it,

    I don't know why it's described as a "theory", as it seems logical and obvious to me. Whoever decided to question it must have had a lot of time on his/her hands.

    Most societies have structure but history does not necessarily have to be a part of seeing that.

    You need to expand on the op and you should refer to forum charter before doing so.

    I'm only educated to MSc level plus a couple of other degrees thrown in, so I'm at a loss to understand this post from the onset.

    One of you clever guys please explain it to me.

    TIA.
