The present is a condition of time that varies in its length. The contemporary present is an interval of time whose origins date back to the year and events of 1968, a conjuncture that catalyzed a powerful and silent socio-cultural revolution. Some of the main features of this revolution include the beginning of a new modality of capitalism, the emergence of new actors and social movements, the subsumption of clasic modernity within world global modernity, the development of a regime of global and present-focused historiocity, the intensification of globalization, the transformation of the world into a historical category, and the transition towards global history.

Palavras-chave : History of the Present; Historical Present; International Relations; Event; Modernity; Globalization.
