Attempts to establish a "morphology of civilizations" seem to continue in spite of dire warnings from scholars. Indeed, while rejecting Toynbee and Sorokin with one hand, many a scholar has beckoned with the other to adventurous young men to leave the barren tracts of specialization and re-enter the broad panoramic fields of Weltgeschichte. Current interest in "comparative feudal institutions" illustrates the case in point.The notion that "feudalism" is a "form of society," especially a "stage in development," can be traced back to Marxist historiography, and from there back to eighteenth century French thinkers. But instead of becoming thoroughly discredited, the notion has recently led to new thinking on the subject which may turn out to be fruitful. In Feudalism in History for example, Rushton Coulborn, has combined eight separate papers on feudalism in various parts of the world by different historians, with his own critical and synthetic studies. Though he fails to find even one "fully developed" feudal society according to his own definition—a not unexpected result—his study contains an amazing amount of suggestive analysis.His suggestions are particularly valuable in the construction of "working models" or "ideal types" as research tools. Even when we remain safely within our own "fields," if we are to go beyond highly specialized fact-gathering and at the same time avoid "presentisi subjectivism," we will need such tools.
