年鉴学派对政治史研究的反思——以雅克·勒高夫《政治还是历史的骨干吗?》为中心

Reflection on the Politics History of the Annals School:Focus on Le Goff's “Is Politics Still the Backbone of History”

针对20世纪70年代西方学界出现的"政治史复兴"思潮,雅克·勒高夫写了《政治还是历史的骨干吗?》一文,指出西方传统政治史研究衰落的原因是受年鉴学派、马克思主义以及史学家个人研究旨趣的影响;同时,提出以"权力"为中心的新政治史构想,即政治史虽然可能复兴,但无法成为独立发展的学科门类,不能成为历史学的骨干。这反映出年鉴学派第三代学者在新政治史研究方面的思考。

Jacque Le Goff wrote the article of＂Is Politics still the Backbone of History＂aimed at the thought of＂the revival of the political history＂in the 1970s. He argued that the decline of the traditional historiography is caused by the Annals School, the Marxism and the interests of the historians. He also put forward the conviction of new political history which is centered on power, namely in spite of its revival, the science of political history cannot become independent and the backbone of the history. His thought reflects the self-examination on the new political history of the Annals School of the third generation.
