Grupo Manifiesto Historia a Debate

First of all, I must say, that the Site of the "History under Debate Manifesto" Group is EXCELLENT! Congratulations!

I think, that the "History under Debate Manifesto" is a very importantdocument. Any critical and constructive dialogue, debate on any field of historical science is necessary and productive. Undoubtedly, the ideas of the Manifesto will be important for the development of the basic methodological principles of historiography.

Proceeding from mentioned above, I will translate the Manifesto in Georgian for future active participation of Georgian historians in these important debates.

With kind regards,
