International Review of Environmental History - First issue!
Monday 20 July 2015
International Review of Environmental History takes an interdisciplinary and global approach to environmental history. It publishes on all thematic and geographical topics of environmental history, but especially encourages articles with perspectives focussed on or developed from the southern hemisphere and the ‘global south’. This includes but is not limited to Australasia, East and South East Asia, Africa and South America.
The first issue is online at ANU ePress!
International Review of Environmental History’s editorial board includes historians, scientists, and geographers who work on environmental history and the related disciplines of garden history and landscape studies. This methodological breadth distinguishes International Review of Environmental History from other environmental history journals, as does its attempt to draw together cognate research areas in garden history and landscape studies.
The journal’s goal is to be read across disciplines, not just within history. We encourage scholars to think big and to tackle the challenges of writing environmental histories across different methodologies, nations, and timescales. We embrace interdisciplinary, comparative, and transnational methods, while still recognising the importance of locality in understanding these global processes.
Our open-access policy means that articles will be available free to scholars around the world, ensuring high citation rates and impact in and beyond the field of history.
International Review of Environmental History is happy to consider future special issues focussing on themes drawn from conferences or collaborations.
