Innovation and history of Philosophy

Abstract

The difficulty of building a general theory on "the innovation, its conditions and effects, his victory, diffusion, and stumbles", and considering the innovation in his general felt, that of the first meaning that the Academy gives to innovate (to modify the things introducing novelties), I attempt to provide from the historical field, to which I have attended, the evocation of some perspectives on a) the moments more outstanding in which they have been produced the large philosophical innovations; and b) how the most influential innovations in the social and political structure, the human geography and the large displacement in the same, the science, the economy or the technology have conditioned the history of western philosophical thought. The same presentation of such perspectives will have to show us furthermore the frequency and the measure in which a) and b) have been able or not to interelated.
