| description | <p>Understandings of time have long formed a fundamental part of political ideologies and served to structure political action. The articles in this special issue of the European Review of History explore different ways in which different groups of activists have drawn on, experienced or projected different understandings of time in Europe in the second half of the twentieth century, often in contexts shaped by substantial upheaval and uncertainty. This introduction outlines the strands of the historiography of time, summarizes some of the underlying themes of the following articles and examines what may be gained from writing time into the history of political activism.</p>
<p>Les compréhensions du temps ont longtemps été un élément fondamental des idéologies politiques, et elles ont souvent structuré l’action politique. Les articles qui se trouvent dans ce numéro de la Revue d’histoire européenne étudient comment des diverses groupes d’activistes ont utilisé, ont éprouvé, et ont projeté des différentes conceptions du temps dans la deuxième moitié du vingtième siècle en Europe, souvent dans le cadre des bouleversements importants et l’incertitude intense. Cette introduction résume quelques éléments de l’historiographie sur les compréhensions du temps, souligne les thèmes qui réunissent les articles inclus ci-dessous, et suggère ce que l’on peut gagner en mettant ensemble l’histoire du temps et celle de l’activisme politique.</p> |
