of technology and intellectual and social history that Lucien Febvre put
forth in Annales almost fifty years ago. Here we are not discussing the
reasons this appeal has remained unheeded. It is true, the history of
technology has remained marginal in relation to institutional history. It
is still a borderline discipline. Lucien Febvre's appeal is still a vital
message that poses a problem and imposes critical reflection. In pub-
lishing this text at the opening of History and Technology, we recognize
a debt, and wish to state clearly our concerns and our choices.
