Academic, scientific or professional interest: History, because of its pluralism, complexity and generality constitutes a good school for the analysis of social problems at a small and large scale: the training of the historian (not just holding a degree in History) qualifies in many countries for a wide arrange of public and private tasks, trains specialists in the management of organisations and complex projects, in providing individuals with a heuristic and analytic capacity (in its double meaning) that other more specialised studies are not able to communicate.
