What determined place have currently population and family studies among European rural history in Modern Age? Are they still being two inter-connected scientific fields? Is it just a continuist and accumulative type of knowledge about research areas that are already drawn up? Is there no room for innovation? The aim of this paper is to review the last two decades' work as well as concrete future proposals. A journey through population social history structures that, with a strong relational and differential character, is opening way to a historiographic renovation, which can be considered deep and innovative in certain aspects unlike the outdated and old-fashioned image that is frequently offered from this research field.

Palabras clave : Historiography; History of the Family; Historical Demography; Social History of Population; Rural History; Europe; Modern Age.
