Sociedades Precapitalistas (Pre-Capitalist
Societies) is a scientific and academic
publication that disseminates historiographical studies focused on the
genesis, morphology and dynamics of the social structures before the
capitalism. It is published by the Center for European Social History
(CEHSE), research unit
that integrates the
Research Institute of Humanities and Social Sciences (IdIHCS-UNLP-CONICET)
in the Faculty of Humanities and Education Sciences (FaHCE) of the National
University of La Plata (UNLP), Argentina.
Sociedades Precapitalistas continues with the
methodological principles of Boletín de Historia Social Europea
edited by CEHSE in the late eighties. It publishes articles, research
papers, reviews, bibliographic studies and documentary transcripts of the
Eastern and Greco-Roman antiquity, medieval and modern Europe, and colonial
and pre-Columbian America, among others. It is especially focused in
comparative approaches. The journal promotes the historiographical debate
and theoretical reflection through peer reviewed collaborations, which are
evaluated by pairs from the
UNLP and guests of one of the universities that collaborate with the faculty,
and in case of dissent, it is referred to a third reviewer.
FaHCE was
formally established in 1920. It is one of the oldest and most prestigious,
institutions, recognized mainly for the development of scholars, researchers
and intellectuals who have excelled at national and international levels.
Results of the different lines of research are made available to the public
through workshops, seminars and conferences carried out by the faculty’s
Secretariat of Research. The FaHCE also offers exchange programs working
together with other national and international academic institutions with
which it has cooperation agreements.
Since its
foundation in 1905, the UNLP has been at the forefront of research and
scientific, cultural and artistic developments. It is one of the largest and
most renowned universities in Argentina, hosting 100,000 students and 10,900
teachers in 17 faculties. UNLP integrates 141 research and development
centers where 3,500 researchers work on their projects. It also has a Museum
of natural sciences and a network of 12 thematic museums, an astronomical
observatory, a public library and a network of 21 libraries.
