Methodologically, the social history of ideas attempts to apply sociological tools to study the diffusion and embedding of political ideas within specific groups. After presenting the general directions of this trend's development, the author focuses on its critics, offering their own reflections on the difficulties one might encounter when applying its principles to research on Central‑Eastern Europe. To tackle this task, the author provides a methodological exercise to verify the extent to which the principles of social history of ideas can be applied to the study of (semi)peripheral ideas. In conclusion, the author emphasises the invigorating nature and critical tasks that social history of ideas can fulfill within Polish historiography as well.}, type={Artykuł}, title={Social history of ideas in the French way: critical tasks and the conditions of possibility in (semi-)peripheral contexts}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/130287/2023-HSRK-40.pdf}, doi={10.24425/hsm.2023.147384}, keywords={East Central Europe, France, social history of ideas, transfer}, }
