Gilberto Freyre is one of Brazil\u2019s all-time finest intellectuals and social scientists. However, unlike his famous French colleague and contemporary Fernand Braudel, Freyre is not currently considered a founder of the new \u2018global history\u2019. The article poses some questions: How valuable is Gilberto Freyre\u2019s work to contemporary historiography? Since most of his books address such themes as colonialism, migration, and the \u2018miscegenation\u2019 of different ethnicities and cultures, do they perhaps also tell us something about what we now call globalization? As historians, within the framework of the new global history, can we use his writings to (better) understand the past? And if so, how can we make use of his work?<\/p>\n
