This was certainly close to Oakeshott’s view.10 But Pocock’s ground crumbles when he advances a further criticism of Oakeshott’s position here. Pocock notes:

I am not quite at ease with the rigour of his response; and I wish to enquire whether the relation between the ‘practical’ and the ‘historical’ enquiries may not be made to appear less exclusive: whether, for example, they may not be seen as in some continuous dialogue with one another. In asking this, I shall be concerned less with the logic of historical enquiry than with its practice (meaning its pursuit, not its practicality in the sense so far considered) and I shall be open to the possibility that dialogue between logically distinct enquiries may in practice be something more than trivial.
