Contemporary European History is an international peer-reviewed academic history journal founded in 1992 and published quarterly by Cambridge University Press. The journal covers the history of Europe from 1914 onwards and publishes three main types of article: research articles, review articles, and Spotlight essays.
The journal also publishes two blogs - The Contemporary European History Blog, designed to compliment journal articles, and New Voices, written by postgraduate students and early-career scholars.
History
Contemporary European History launched in March 1992. The original editors were Kathleen Burk and Dick Geary. The first issue noted: It is an exciting thing to launch a new journal, and in this case it reflects the fact that we in Europe are living in interesting times. We are clearly on the brink of a new Europe: 1992 will see the United Kingdom and Ireland more fully integrated into the European Community, and glasnost has set in train unknown but certainly far-reaching changes in the USSR and Eastern and East Central Europe. Beyond this, year by year the concept of Europe as both a geographical and an historical entity becomes more credible, and there is increasing interest, not only in the histories of individual countries, but in how their histories compare with each other.The journal was established to cover 'European history in its widest sense', defined as continental Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and the United Kingdom. It sought to publish articles across all major historical areas, spanning political, social, economic, cultural and diplomatic history.
In recent years, the journal has expanded its focus to include coverage of the histories of Europe's overseas empires.
From the outset, the journal has devoted at least one issue per year to a particular historical theme. Recent examples have included European Cultural Diplomacy and the Twenty Years' Crisis, Religion and Socialism in the Long 1960s, Transnational Anti-Fascism, and Alcohol Production and Consumption in Contemporary Europe.
