[Resumen] Para estudiar cualquier grupo local en el presente es preciso analizarlo también como producto de una historia, y contextualizarlo dentro de unidades mayores (tri... bus, estados, o sistelnas mundiales). El autor plantea así la necesidad imperiosa de una colaboración estrecha entre las ciencias sociales, de una puesta en COlnún de sus aparatos teóricos y lnetodológicos, que en el extremo permitiría hablar de una «etnohistoria». La argumentación se sustantiva en diversos ejemplos: los Baruya de Nueva Guinea, comunidades indígenas del valle de Oaxaca (México), o aldeas de la China maoista.
[Abstract] In arder to understand the existence of any local group in the present, we lT1USt study either its history as the position it occupies inside more global unities (tribes, states or world systeIns). The author pleads for a kind of «ethnohistory», an inter... disciplinary approach that should take profit of the theoretical and methodological fralneworks of social sciences. This assert will be illustrated by refering to a variety of exan1ples: New Guinea's Baruya, the communities of Oaxaca's valley (Mexico), or SaIne peasant villages in Maoist China.
