La storia come bene comune: le nuove frontiere della public history digitale

Abstract

The digital world is increasingly prevasive, both in historical research and in daily life. Consulting a Wikipedia entry, updating your Facebook profile, or accessing an archive on the internet are gestures that have become part of the routine of actions of every day life. They involve, however, a redifinition of our ways of getting information, selectiong our memories and doing research. Establishing to what extent the historical narrative will come out changed by these actions, is one of the chellenges historians will have to face in the coming decades.
