The Soviet Georgian philosopher Otar Džoev has been writing for more than a decade on various problems in the philosophy of history. He has written on the concept of history, on the concept of a science of history, on the concepts of law, necessity, and determinism in history, and on the role of the individual as agent of history. More recently, in response to theories of certain of the French structuralists, he has also addressed the topics of historicism and humanism.1
