Overview
Arbejderhistorie is a Danish historical journal published by Selskabet for Arbejderhistorie (the Society for Labour History). It first appeared under the title Arbejderhistorie in 1982, continuing the earlier journal Meddelelser om forskning i arbejderbevægelsens historie, which had been published from 1973 until the end of 1981. The journal is edited by an independent editorial board and carries articles on 'labour history' in a broad interpretation. This means it covers the labour movement and its history, but also subjects such as the German occupation of Denmark, the Cold War, the youth revolt and a wide range of other topics within nineteenth- and twentieth-century political, social and cultural history. It has also published analyses ranging from trade union work on Saint Croix to espionage in the GDR. Scholarly articles in the journal are assessed by researchers from an independent review panel and published by the Society for Labour History. Recent issues are available on the tidsskrift.dk platform. The journal also maintains a website at sfah.dk, where back issues can be ordered as long as stock lasts, and where readers can search articles by title or author. The journal has appeared in multiple issues per year, with volumes dating back to the 1970s under its predecessor title and to 1982 under the current title.
History
Arbejderhistorie is a Danish historical journal published by Selskabet for Arbejderhistorie (the Society for Labour History). Its origins lie in the journal Meddelelser om forskning i arbejderbevægelsens historie, which was published from 1973 until the end of 1981. In 1982 the publication continued under the new title Arbejderhistorie. The journal has also been published with the subtitle tidsskrift for historie, kultur og politik (journal for history, culture and politics). It is edited by an independent editorial board and contains articles on 'labour history' in a broad interpretation. This broad scope means that, alongside articles on the labour movement and its history, the journal has published articles on the German occupation of Denmark, the Cold War, the youth revolt and a wide range of other subjects within nineteenth- and twentieth-century political, social and cultural history. It has also carried analyses of topics as varied as trade union work on Saint Croix and espionage in the GDR. Scholarly articles in the journal are assessed by researchers from an independent review panel and published by the Society for Labour History. Recent issues are available on the tidsskrift.dk platform. The journal's website at sfah.dk provides an overview of the journal, its editorial and review boards, guidelines for submitting contributions, peer review information, and a search function for finding articles by title or author. Back issues can be ordered as long as stock lasts, with prices listed for members and non-members. The journal has published multiple issues per year, with volumes dating from the 1970s under its predecessor title and from 1982 under the current title.
