The Journal for the History of Environment and Society (JHES) aims to be a leading online and Open Access periodical that covers all aspects of environmental history in its broadest sense. The journal encourages high-quality scholarship focusing on the interaction between environmental changes and social-historical context. Interregional and international comparative articles receive special attention. Given the interdisciplinary nature of the discipline of environmental history, papers should be accessible for scholars from all disciplines in the field, which will also ensure their accessibility to a wider audience. Geographically, JHES focuses primarily – but not exclusively – on Northwest Europe (including areas that had historical relations with that broad region). Articles with a more general geographic scope are also welcome.
