Kniha otevírá nový pohled na zkoumání vztahu lidí k dějinám a jejich představ o minulosti. Historické vědomí je zde sociologickou perspektivou prezentováno nejen jako látka pro teoretické uvažování, ale především pro empirický výzkum. Klíčovou linií knihy je, že historické vědomí není invariantní entitou, nýbrž má samo historicky proměnlivý charakter a je odrazem obecných společensko-politických poměrů.
