It would be the dynamic monetary economy of capitalism highly developed, typical of century XX? It will be that the absence of great density of cities in allied Africa the capitalist dinamizao of the economy would not be safe criteria of not consideration of Africa as not civilization? A culture cannot be studied from the long duration? Thus disrespecting the legacy of civilization of Africa, the other chapter if considers to point the problems that the Africans must face in the gift and the future. Here our attention falls again for the defense of the necessary adaptation of the cultures and primitive religions to the overwhelming process of modernization and adequacy of the continent to the liberal capitalism, therefore Braudel makes responsible them to become inert the African culture and the society. As already it was evidenced throughout the text, the points of failures in meeting between Africa de Braudel and its long duration are clear. Moreover, deducting the general objectives of the two workmanships, the image of Africa that appears in the Mediterranean is revisited in Grammar of the Civilizations, where it had the chance exhaustingly to explore the meaning of the category that guided its life of researcher. Here an inflection appears enters the proposal theoretical of it and the way as history Africa. When the history of century XV is approached or even of more remote times, time or another one if it collates with the problem of the duration of some elements in question. But for Braudel Africa already appears constructed in this time, of this made its past is denied. The ethnic societies, cities, cultures, language and groups already appear formed and made use in a cruel space. Comparing this history with the one of the Europe, as much in the Mediterranean as in Grammar of the Civilizations, we perceive that this continent possesss a privileged space in the thought of Braudel, being historiado from century IV.
