La historia y las ciencias sociales
Bajo un signo común de preocupación por la unidad de las ciencias del hombre, Braudel examina los diversos y contrapuestos sentidos que los términos civilización y cultura tienen en diversos autores y ofrece sus propias soluciones; polemiza amistosamente con el estructuralismo de Lévi-Strauss y la sociología de Gurvitch; explica las tendencias de la nueva historia, ocupada en la problemática de la larga duración y de la vida material; y establece los principios para una fructífera colaboración entre historiadores, antropólogos, sociólogos, demógrafos, geógrafos y economistas en pos de objetivos comunes.

Fernand Braudel was the foremost French historian of the postwar era and a leader of the Annales School. His scholarship focused on three great projects, each representing several decades of intense study: "The Mediterranean" (1923–49, then 1949–66), "Civilization and Capitalism" (1955–79), and the unfinished "Identity of France" (1970–85). His reputation stems in part from his writings, but even more from his success in making the Annales School the most important engine of historical research in France and much of the world after 1950. As the dominant leader of the Annales School of historiography in the 1950s and 1960s, he exerted enormous influence on historical writing in France and other countries. Braudel has been considered one of the greatest of those modern historians who have emphasised the role of large-scale socioeconomic factors in the making and telling of history. He can also be considered as one of the precursors of World Systems Theory. ([Source][1]) [1]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernand_Braudel
