Special Issue: Transnationality and Transculturality in the History of Education

Call for papers

The journal Historia y Memoria de la Educación, HME, is calling for papers on the theme of transnationality and transculturality in the history of education. The concept of transnational history refers to a research approach that examines the different degrees of interaction, connection, circulation, intersection and intertwining that reach beyond the nation state. The idea of cultural transfer is based on an understanding of culture that rejects the concept of homogenous identities and closed national cultures and argues for a broad multicultural definition that reflects the construction of reference points in particular historical and territorial spaces. Based on this central axis, the following themes are proposed:

1) Centres and peripheries: cultural and pedagogical movements and the formation of transnational and transcultural networks.
2) The image of other cultures in national and international pedagogical discourses.
3) Migrants and migrations in the history of education.
4) The reflection of transnationality and transculturality in the material culture of the school.
5) History of environmental education, development education and education for sustainable development goals.

Papers should be submitted via the website https://revistas.uned.es/index.php/HMe/about/submissions by 13 October 2024. All articles will be subjected to a double-blind peer review process.
