‘Urgent Histories’ Forum

The upcoming issue of History Australia features a forum responding to the theme of ‘urgent histories.’ The forum consists of three papers with a response by Paul Kramer:

‘Here we stand: temporal thinking in urgent times’by Tamson Pietsch and Frances Flanagan; ‘Doing environmental history in urgent times’by Katie Holmes, Andrea Gaynor and Ruth Morgan; and ‘Training historians in urgent times’ by Yves Rees and Ben Huf. These articles will be published online and free to access from 15 June 2020.

Over that week, historians from across Australia will respond to these considerations and provocations in a series of blog posts:
