Abstract: This article discusses the changes experienced by History as a discipline in Argentina during the last four decades, which were also the core years in the trajectory of the author of these pages as a historian. Rather than a systematic revision of the vast field of History during that period, the author offers an overview of the main tendencies of historiography in Argentina at a time of significant transformations in the local and global disciplinary trends. The article explores the changes and continuities in the dominant themes and perspectives and in the material and institutional conditions of historiographical production, and reflects on how they relate to the place that “doing History” occupies in contemporary societies

Keywords : history; argentine historiography; late nineteenth/early twentieth century.
