Interfaces between historical and political culture

ABSTRACT

The field of historical culture in Brazil is constantly developing, through both historical research and teaching, , however, the interface between the concept of historical culture and that of political culture needs further study. This theoretical essay uses the concepts of Jörn Rüsen (historical culture) and Gabriel Almond and, Sidney Verba (political culture), and investigates the potential for links between both concepts , in order to address the development of studies on the relationships between individual thought and history and politics. This development involves searching for connections between these concepts, as well as decomposing and analyzing the characteristics, positions, knowledge, and attitudes to be translated into tools to quantitative and qualitative research. These concepts will be powerful tools for qualifying interpretations of, among other subjects, the teaching and learning of history and the quest to collect data and contribute to the understanding of the complex relationship between historical schooling and extra-school learning, mainly with regard to forming personal, group and national identities associated with the socializing processes and political positions.
