Abstract

This article aims to analyze some of the most notorious theoretical, methodological and temporal proposals that have been addressed in the different stages of the historiography on violence, not only in the 1950s, but also in the 1980s and early 1980s. of the 2000s with special emphasis on the recognition of cultural elements. After carrying out a documentary review that included works carried out from the 1960s to more recent years, it was concluded that, in the first instance, some of the gaps in these works refer precisely to the cultural element. Second, it was found that a good part of the studies were carried out by professionals from other disciplines with an important methodological and testimonial component, although not theoretical.
