Description
Summary:The primary purpose of this essay is to demonstrate whether the new economic history (NEH) is a variant of social history, or if it has an origin in the economy as such. The article demonstrates the latter, which leads it to consider the specific paradigm of its genesis, its strengths and weaknesses and the importance to economic historian and social analysis. Stated above, we outline an alternative perspective that make possible to overcome some of the shortcomings of this paradigm, which has become a dominant methodology for economic history. This renewed look at historical economic phenomena, recovers the social essence that characterized the economic history in its origins
