Comparative Studies in Society and History
Comparative Studies in Society and History (CSSH) is an international forum for new research and interpretation concerning problems of recurrent patterning and change in human societies through time and in the contemporary world. CSSH sets up a working alliance among specialists in all branches of the social sciences and humanities as a way of bringing together multidisciplinary research, cultural studies, and theory, especially in anthropology, history, political science, and sociology. Review articles and discussion bring readers in touch with current findings and issues (Provided by Publisher).
Environment and History was founded in 1995 as an interdisciplinary journal, with an avowed intention "to bring scholars in the humanities and Natural Sciences closer together, with the deliberate intention of constructing long and well-founded perspectives on past and present-day environmental problems." The journal is vital to several ongoing research projects as well as taught modules in the Department of History and within The School of Arts, Languages and Cultures more broadly.

Past & Present is widely acknowledged to be the liveliest and most stimulating historical journal in the English-speaking world. The journal’s contents reflect the Society’s belief that history should be accessible and interesting to a wide range of readers, and its articles are intended to appeal to non-specialists as well as to experts. Since its inception in 1952, the mark of a P&P article was that it should be a properly researched study which showed an awareness of the wider implications of that research. Its remit is worldwide, and across all time periods. There are four issues a year, each containing around seven major articles with occasional debates and review essays (Provided by Publisher) .
