In the Western tradition, philosophy represents a radical effort to understand reality. Philosophy casts an astonished, questioning gaze on the world around it and on mankind. The philosopher rejects the easy "obvious" and asks why things are the way they are. Rather than a discipline juxtaposed with others, philosophy as a critical approach thus constitutes an attitude and a spirit that apply in all registers, particularly intellectual, of human activity.

History explores the human past in all its complexity: populations, economies, political techniques, religions, ideologies, arts... It borrows from the human sciences the questions and methods that enable us to grasp correlations, detect genesis, in a word, understand the human adventure. History also looks to the future! To prepare for the future, you act today on the basis of your knowledge of the past!
