title: [The art of uniting time and space: Fernand Braudel, geohistory and the long run].
abstract: This article presents the concept of geohistory, as developed by the French historian Fernand Braudel in his text "Géohistoire: la société, l'espace et le temps", written while he was imprisoned during the Second World War. The concept expresses his criticism of the boundaries of academic disciplines, and the importance of geography in the construction of his long-term history. Inspired both by the study of relations between society and environment based on the work of French geographers, and by the triangular link of space-economy-society of German geographers, Braudel's geohistory presents an approach more consistent and more complex than Lucien Febvre's theses found in The earth and human evolution: e geographical introduction to history.
