This document summarizes Daniel Little's views on social science as presented in his work "Action in History and Social Science". It discusses key concepts such as social regularities, causal explanations, and agents and structures. Little argues that social science differs from natural science due to weak social regularities and lack of governing laws. However, causal mechanisms and analyses of how social entities influence individuals can provide a basis for limited predictions in social science. The scope of prediction is narrower than in natural sciences given the complexity of human behaviors and institutions.
