Global Histories and Sociology Study Group

Aims and Objectives

The Global Histories and Sociology Study Group aims to provide a forum for sociologists/social scientists using history and historical methods in their research and/or teaching.

This is achieved via a range of activities including:

• Facilitating collaboration and the exchange of ideas by organising conference streams, plenaries and regular meetings.
• Providing a structure for the dissemination of information by establishing online and offline communication platforms such as email lists and a web presence.
• Promoting interdisciplinary dialogue with colleagues in the fields of history, law, anthropology, media studies, political science, and cultural studies.
