In this work, originally published in 1989, the author establishes a tradition of radical historicism from Hegel to the Budapest School. He charts both its continuous evolution from the early 19th century to the late 20th, and its transformation in the context of European social, economic, and cultural change.

Through a reappraisal of historical interpretation from Hegel to Foucault, the book demonstrates the contemporary relevance of radical historicism. It includes detailed analyses of Marx, Dilthey, Simmel, Weber, Lukรกcs, Horkheimer, Adorno, and Habermas.

History and Totality offers a crucial exploration of the subject, providing valuable insights and comprehensive commentary on how these thinkers have shaped and responded to evolving historical conditions.
