Global and International History

Series Editors:

  • Erez Manela, Harvard University

  • Heather Salter, Northeastern University

The Global and International History series seeks to highlight and explore the convergences between the new International History and the new World History. Its editors are interested in approaches that mix traditional units of analysis such as civilizations, nations, and states with other concepts such as transnationalism, diasporas, and international institutions.
