Gündelik Hayatın Yapıları

Fernand Braudel has been pursuing global history since his first monumental work, The Mediterranean . The method of constructing history in three layers, which he developed to achieve this goal, is today accepted as the most competent method achieved by this discipline. Braudel also built his work called Material Civilization, which is larger and more ambitious than the Mediterranean , on three floors. The first volume focuses on people's daily lives, that is, the area that changes the slowest; The second volume or floor, as he puts it, is devoted to the economy, that is, exchange and market, and finally the last volume/layer is devoted to the area of capitalism, which is changing most rapidly.

This work, which Braudel devoted thirty years to, is essentially an economic history. But as those who know the master's approach understand, economics does not have a more privileged place in his eyes than other "wholes"; Therefore, this book is also the history of culture, society and mentality. And in terms of Braudel's approach to global history, these are the constitutive segments of human history that should be examined in intersectional terms rather than separately.
