Temporality, Society and History; Dangerous Relationships

Abstract

The author establishes different approximations to the concept of temporality as a social construction product. In this way and taking time, as historical frame, as a utopia, or as a plurality, the different postures which have been succeeding, go beating out of the grain. A first attitude of the historian has been the reporting of the facts “such as effectively succeeded”, to make possible the reconstruction of the past, and looking forward to conclude in that, which has the value of veracity. The author remarks the ingenuousness inherent to this attitude, while there is no way to elaborate an accurate calendar, because this is constructed through the prism of the social structures which go before its creation.
