How should historians speak truth to power - and why does it matter? Why is five hundred years better than five months or five years as a planning horizon? And why is history - especially long-term history - so essential to understanding the multiple pasts which gave rise to our conflicted present? The History Manifesto is a call to arms to historians and everyone interested in the role of history in contemporary society. Leading historians Jo Guldi and David Armitage identify a recent shift back to longer-term narratives, following many decades of increasing specialisation, which they argue is vital for the future of historical scholarship and how it is communicated. This provocative and thoughtful book makes an important intervention in the debate about the role of history and the humanities in a digital age. It will provoke discussion among policymakers, activists and entrepreneurs as well as ordinary listeners, viewers, readers, students and teachers. This title is also available as Open Access.

史學的危機的確存在,但可能因為自己的感觸不夠深,故對於作者的呼籲沒有切膚之痛。但對於作者的大數據的應對方法錶示不贊同,對於和經濟學傢和社會學傢“爭奪主導權”更是無法苟同,就算曆史學能夠在某種程度上“指導”未來,但是其指導性絕對無法和經濟學和社會學相提並論,...

新年第一雞血!大概正因為當下history/historian是多麼地無用,纔要在“Manisfesto”中擲地有聲地宣稱“Historians of the world, unite! There is a world to win – before it’s too late.”
評分看到後麵覺得變成軟文瞭……
評分很簡練的史學史和曆史學未來的展望,強調重視長時段、計量史學等方法。
