Résumé anglais West Germany focuses on its past, Etienne François. The Federal Republic of Germany is no longer a country without a past, suffering from amnesia after the trauma of Nazism. A strong desire for history stirs its inhabitants who crowd exhibitions and devour books. This exaltation and this rediscovery of the past are mobilising the historical profession, strongly divided and prone to polemics. In the multiplication of research, the critical sensibility of an Alltagsgeschichte, very attentive to the fringes and to daily life, is very promising. But the much-fought historicism has not given up and the social premises of this renewal of history are not always clearly formulated.
