"With its innovative format, Debating New Approaches to History addresses issues currently
at the top of the discipline's theoretical and methodological agenda. In its chapters,
leading historians of both older and younger generations from across the Western world
and beyond discuss and debate the main problems and challenges that historians are
facing today. Each chapter is followed by a critical commentary from another key scholar
in the field and the author's response. The volume looks at topics such as the importance
and consequences of the 'digital turn' in history (what will history writing be like
in a digital age?), the challenge of posthumanist theory for history writing (how
do we write the history of non-humans?) and the possibilities of moving beyond traditional
sources in history and establishing a dialogue with genetics and neurosciences (what
are the perspectives and limits of the so-called 'neurohistory'?). It also revisits
older debates in history which remain crucial, such as what the gender approach can
offer to historical research or how to write history on a global scale. Debating New
Approaches to History does not just provide a useful overview of the new approaches
to history it covers, but also offers insights into current historical debates and
the process of historical method in the making. It demonstrates how the discipline
of history has responded to challenges in society - such as digitalization, globalization
and environmental concerns - as well as in humanities and social sciences, such as
the 'material turn', 'visual turn' or 'affective turn'. This is a key volume for all
students of historiography wanting to keep their finger on the pulse of contemporary
thinking in historical research"
