Public History Weekly. The International BlogJournal is a peer-reviewed academic journal on all aspects of public history addressing a wider audience to popularize academic research and debates.
Overview
The journal was established in 2013 and is published by Walter de Gruyter on behalf of four universities from Austria (University of Vienna), Poland (University of Wrocław), and Switzerland (Universities of Education in Basel/Brugg and in Lucerne) as well as of the International Federation for Public History. The journal publishes in English and in German and additionally in the mother tongue of each author. The journal has the explicit aim to link the discussions of Public historians and history educationalists. That aim of bridging an academic gap has been criticized recently.
