In recent years, global history has become one of the most ambitious and promising strands of historical research. This approach targets relations, flows, and actors that transcend borders long-assumed to be stable and impenetrable. It calls attention to the importance of transnational, trans-regional, or trans-local connections and their influence on the past.

Our successful international Global History Student Conference 2016 acts as the point of departure for this issue, showcasing how global history is conceptualized and realized in different cultural contexts around the world. To that end, we encourage the submission of any historical or transdisciplinary research related to (or critical of) global history.

We suggest the following themes, which represent our conference panels, as a starting point for consideration:
- Decentralizing the Cold War
- Global History before 1750
- Methodology and Marginalization
- Global Urban History
- Gender, Body, and Power
- Transnational Ideologies and Networks
- Memory Studies
- Religion
- Postcolonial Studies
- Visual Representations and Art History

Who We Are: Global Histories is a student-run open access journal based in the MA Global History program at Humboldt University and Free University in Berlin. We are looking for submissions from fellow students across the world for our spring issue on the topic of global history.

Submissions: Article submissions should be 5000-7000 words and written in English with vernacular scripts in the original and transcription included wherever appropriate. All submissions must follow the Chicago Manual of Style and must not have been previously submitted for publication elsewhere. Please consult our submission guidelines at: http://www.globalhistories.com/index.php/GHSJ/about/submissions#onlineSubmissions Authors should register on our website www.globalhistories.com to submit their work via our online system. Questions related to topics or article submissions should be directed to submissions@globalhistories.com, but applicants should do so well in advance of the January 15, 2017 final deadline.
