My hypothesis is that these re-interpretations of White’s proposal allow us to move beyond the idea of a single true narrative. Instead, they propose the writing of history as a culturally bounded practice, open to intersubjective discussion and ethically committed with the problems of the contemporary world

Parto de la hipótesis de que aquellas re-lecturas de la propuesta whiteana permiten superar la idea de un único relato verdadero, proponiendo en su lugar una concepción de la escritura de la historia como una práctica interpretativa situada por márgenes culturales, abierta a la discusión intersubjetiva y éticamente comprometida con los problemas del mundo contemporáneo.
