Are we not experiencing a crisis of historicity that fundamentally chal-
lenges the conditions for writing history and historical experience?
The changes underway in the following areas: global history, world
history, connected histories, crossed histories, after and with the
Subaltern and Post-colonial studies, history of sensibilities, environ-
mental history would be in this perspective the new modalities of a
historiographical regime adapted to our modernity and a way to re-
spond to “presentism”.
      To what extent does this crisis of historicity reconfigure the dia-
lectical relationship between past, present and future? The themes
selected for this issue seem to us to be privileged paths to question
and better understand our current experience of history and guide us
over time. The first series of questions concerns time and its recon-
figurations in terms of discontinuity, contingency and unpredictability
from a perspective that calls into question any form of teleology. It is
part of a critical perspective of the deterministic approach and the
ideas of fatalization of history (Hartog, Dosse, Lista, Carvalho Men-
donça). The second series of questions focuses on three innovative
fields of investigation projects that are driving new dynamics in world
historiography: global history, the history of sensibilities and envi-
ronmental history. To what extent do these dynamics contribute to
rethinking our relationship to time? (Delacroix, Mazurel&Deluermoz,

Jarrige). Thirdly, we wanted to return to the contribution of Hayden
White, recently deceased, and the Linguistic Turn, to the reflections
on the writing of history (Carrard, Reichert do Nascimento).
