Colonizing the Americas, 1500–1830
Editors-in-Chief:
, , , , and
Launched in 2011, the peer-reviewed Journal of Early American History is dedicated to the advancement of scholarly understanding of the colonization of the Americas. It encourages a trans-Atlantic, comparative, and international perspective on the creation and development of colonial societies across the Americas between the arrival of Europeans in the late fifteenth century and the early nineteenth century, when most had achieved their independence from Europe. This includes interactions and relationships between Indigenous, African, and European peoples, places, and processes within, between, and beyond the colonial communities that eventually produced the independent nations of the Americas. Building on trans-national trends in scholarship, it also seeks to foster an awareness of histories that do not easily fit within traditional national or regional frameworks.
The editors invite manuscript submissions in English of 25–45 pages double-spaced (approximately 8,000–10,000 words). The Journal of Early American History also publishes English language review of recent books in English and other languages. For reviews, please contact Kristin Condotta Lee (for books in English), Anne-Marie Libério (for books in French) or Alejandro García-Montón (for books in Spanish).
