Histoire événementielle

Histoire événementielle, or "event history" in English, is a way of studying history by focusing on specific significant events and their sequences to understand how and why changes occur over time. Instead of broad themes, it looks at particular moments—like wars, treaties, or social movements—and how these events influence subsequent developments. This approach helps analyze cause-and-effect relationships and the dynamics of historical change, providing a detailed understanding of the progression of history through key events.
