Historein

Aims & Scope

Historein is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access electronic journal published biannually by the Cultural and Intellectual History Society (Athens).

It is both historical and interdisciplinary in its perspective.

It is thus situated within a scholarly “free trade" zone that encourages the interaction between history, philosophy, social anthropology, sociology, gender and labour studies, epistemology, literary and cultural studies.

Its main aim is to promote the study of themes and phenomena that cannot be approached solely from within one discipline.

Historein strongly supports approaches that tend to erase the distance between theory and research by making self-reflection a vital element of historical scholarship at all levels and stages.
