The paper follows the development of the Gruppo Interuniversitario per la Storia dell’Europa Mediterranea (Gisem) from the birth – thirty years ago, in a moment of critical cultural exchange in the italian historiographical context – to present day. The founders aimed to offer new clue of the historical reality which was able to detach from the historiographical settings with roots in the second postwar period. Many aspects stress this innovative effort and reflect themselves in the numerous publications: the involvement of scholars belonging to different disciplines and of specialist of various backgrounds and age, with the subsequent overcoming of the gap between Middle Ages and modern times; the international aspect of the discussed themes and of the involved scholars; last, the topics under investigation gathered around five main directions, all dinamically interconnected (history of social groups and their relations; Mediterranean aerea and transalpine world; men and ideas mobility, with their complex system of relations; urban realities, in the territory and in the frame of international relations; strangers, élites and international commerce and consequent exchanges). One of the main contribution of Gisem has been to offer a new model of historical research, a different way of facing historical issues, a more reflexive and careful to the details way.
