The new concept of history is more scientific and comprehensive. Though, history is one of the oldest subjects of knowledge, but, history and men are interlinked. Hence, it is not possible to differentiate the two.
It is not merely a chronical of events, it is a wreathe with the events strong on the thread of ideologies. It is said that, ideas are the root cause of all actions. It is the idea or knowledge that have determined the action of men through the times.
Of course, we have to say that ideas are the forces motivating the actions of humans.
History is a story of human race from the very beginning upto the present scenario. It concerns with the different aspects of betterment of human. In this connection only its concept, its term is wide and varied. It also deals with the human actions.
By the new concept, history does not contain only the history of kings and queens, wars and generals, it is the history of the common man, —his house and clothings, his field and cultivation, his continuous and comprehensive efforts to his house and family, and to gain a just government, his expectations, goals, performance, downfall, drawbacks. Not only the individual but the societies are also the subject matter of study of history.
History does not confine itself to the study of human race, to the past days or present one. It too studies the past work and activities of the human. It promotes and provides variety in the study of human experience.
The new concept of history gives emphasis on history an evolutions, birth and development of human civilization through the ages. During the age of classical civilisation of Greece and Rome, a scientific purpose was imparted an history.
History deals with the intellectual progress of humans. The very modern concept of history is wide comprehensive. In this context, importance is given on economic, social, political, religious, military and constitutional areas. Modern concept of history also includes the achievement and deeds of great patriots and warriors. It also gives importance on the positive link and unity which basically exist between the national and world history.
