New journal: Anthropocene History
First Issue October 2026. Now accepting submissions for subsequent issues.
Anthropocene History
brings together research that addresses the Anthropocene from historical perspectives and contributes to understanding the interconnections between human and Earth history, contemporary and older. It welcomes contributions that advance theoretical underpinnings of historical Anthropocene studies, as well as case-oriented research. From revisiting events like the Industrial Revolution through an Anthropocene lens to examining the environmental consequences of colonialism, capitalism and communism, the journal aims to foster interdisciplinary conversations that cross traditional boundaries between the sciences, social sciences, and humanities. The overall aim of the journal is to develop a new field where historical and historiographical studies are both informed and reformed by the recognition of the new human-Earth relationship that the Anthropocene concept reflects.
