description | This paper explores the relationship between social and cultural history, the antagonism which has kept them apart for a long time, and the reasons for a new convergence between the two which has emerged recently.

The paper shows that the combination of “pragmatism” applied to judiciary documents and sociological theories of action opens the way for a new convergence between social and cultural history. |
