ANNOUNCING H-MEDITERRANEAN: H-NET LIST ON MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY MEDITERRANEAN HISTORY

ABOUT H-MEDITERRANEAN

The aim of H-Mediterranean is to provide researchers with information on publications and congresses regarding the history of the Mediterranean. The discussion list aims at becoming a space for debate between researchers coming from different academic fields. Instead of only promoting discussions about each single country, or only discussing the concept of Mediterranean history, the aim is to facilitate circulation and confrontation of ideas, methods, and theories. The other purpose of H-Mediterranean is to present book reviews on Mediterranean history and bibliography, in order to promote a trans-Mediterranean circulation of information. Focus is put on recent bibliography in English, French, Italian, Arabic, Turk, Spanish and Greek about the history of the Mediterranean and Mediterranean countries. H-Mediterranean aims at promoting academic discussion between scholars of various parts of the region as a scientific method. The site consists of reviews, a discussion list, information pages about publications, calls for papers, and conferences, as well as links with the major academic institutions in the Mediterranean region.

H-MEDITERRANEAN is co-edited by Denis Bocquet; Ecole francaise de Rome, Italy and Nora Lafi, CNRS URBAMA, Tours, France . It is advised by a board of scholars.

Like all H-Net lists, H-MEDITERRANEAN is moderated to edit out material that, in the editors' opinion, is not germane to the list, involves technical matters (such as subscription management requests), is inflammatory, or violates evolving, yet common, standards of Internet etiquette. H-Net's procedure for resolving disputes over list editorial practices is Article II, Section 2.20 of our bylaws, located at:
