| General note | "How should historians speak truth to power- and why does it matter? Why is five hundred years better than five months or five years as a planning horizon? And why is history- especially long-term history- so essential to understanding the multiple pasts which gave rise to our conflicted present? The History Manifesto is a call to arms to historians and everyone interested in the role of history in contemporary society"-- from cover |

It will provoke discussion among policymakers, activists and entrepreneurs as well as ordinary listeners, viewers, readers, students and teachers"-- |
