I believe that the historians we must delastrar itself of the prurito to consider to the present time studies as mere journalistic exercise or as he leaves from the sociología.Los historians we can to study our present, indeed to look for an exit to the present crisis. For that reason, our investigations must have pertinecia social, is to say to even relavancia the social sectors excluded from official history. In addition, to interlace the present historical process with its ramifications in the past, indeed not to fall in the structural ahistoricismo functionalism.

Creo que los historiadores debemos delastrarnos del prurito de considerar a los estudios de actualidad como mero ejercicio periodístico o como parte de la sociología.Los historiadores estamos en condiciones de estudiar nuestro presente, precisamente para buscar una salida a la crisis actual. Por ello, nuestras investigaciones deben tener pertinecia social, es decir relavancia par los sectores sociales excluidos de la historia oficial. Además, entrelazar el proceso histórico actual con sus ramificaciones en el pasado, precisamente para no caer en el ahistoricismo estructural- funcionalismo.
