History of the Present (ISSN: 2159-9785)

Description

History of the Present is a journal devoted to history as a critical endeavor. Its aim is twofold: to create a space in which scholars can reflect on the role history plays in establishing categories of contemporary debate by making them appear inevitable, natural or culturally necessary; and to publish work that calls into question certainties about the relationship between past and present that are taken for granted by the majority of practicing historians. It was awarded ‘Best New Journal’ for 2012 by the Council of Editors of Learned Journals.
