What is Historisk studenttidskrift (the Historical Student Journal)?
Historisk studenttidskrift is Sweden’s only scholarly history journal run on a voluntary basis by students. The journal is based at the Department of History at Lund University and was founded in 2018 by students in collaboration with the department. Its aim is to disseminate and make accessible research conducted by both students and scholars from history and related disciplines in Sweden. The journal also seeks to serve as a forum for discussion where students and doctoral candidates can freely exchange ideas related to history and the teaching of history.
Since 2020, Historisk studenttidskrift has been published once a year. The journal features scholarly articles, essays, reviews, and debate pieces written in Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, and English. To ensure public accessibility, all issues are published in open access.
Contributions are primarily written by students and scholars at historical departments in Sweden, but submissions from the general public and researchers at international institutions are also welcome.
All contributions that fit the journal’s genres are considered, regardless of the author’s background.
