Urban History occupies
a central place in historical scholarship, with an outstanding record
of interdisciplinary contributions, and a broad-based and distinguished
panel of referees and international advisors. Each issue features
wide-ranging research articles covering social, economic, political and
cultural aspects of the history of towns and cities. The journal
coverage is worldwide in its scope: over half of the articles are on
non-British topics, with a very strong concentration on European
cities. It has recently developed a new publishing venture, hosting
innovative multi-media websites - including graphics, sound and
interactive elements - to accompany selected print articles.* The
journal also includes book reviews, summaries of PhD theses, and
surveys of recent articles in academic journals. In addition, Urban
History acts as a forum for stimulating debate on
historiographical and methodological issues. An indispensable tool for
urban historians worldwide, the journal's annual bibliography features
on average over 1000 publications culled from monographs, edited
collections and periodicals.
