Sumario:This article aims to analyse some of the ways in which social history has addressed the phenomenon ofeconomic and social inequality. Is performed first a quick tracing of as inequality turned into an importanttopic of the Economy and the Social Sciences, mainly the Sociology. In the second and third paragraph it isa question of establishing what the analysis perspectives were on the topic of social history both Europeanand Argentina. There it is noted that, beyond the national peculiarities, the interest in inequality was notaddressed by the researchers directly and as a phenomenon itself, but through tha analysis of varioussituations of exploitation (conflicts, workers organizations, living and working conditions, etc.). These waysof dealing with the issue, generally from the perspective of Marxist analysis, prevented for years fromthinking of inequality in more complex terms such as gender inequities, race, etnia or, as has occurred fromthe economic and social changes of the 1980´s, the vast world of individuals who are outside the world offormal work and State protection policies.
