About the Journal

Ennen ja nyt is a society-based international scientific journal dedicated to all fields of history and neighboring fields. The journal publishes papers of high scholarly merit in three categories: Research Papers, Reflections and Essays, and Reviews. Research papers are original full-length articles that make a significant contribution to historical and related research. Reflections and essays introduce empirical, theoretical or methodological insights from ongoing research, including literature reviews and lectures. Reviews refers to book reviews of single or multiple publications with a common theme. Reviewed book(s) must be relatively new and they must contain significant or otherwise interesting insights into the study of history or neighboring fields. With these three publication formats, Ennen ja nyt seeks to take forward historical research and discussion in a critical and responsible spirit. 

The languages of the journal are Finnish and English but not exclusively.
