History Under Debate Edited by Carlos Barros
"IMPORTANT. . . . Deserves to be read by historians and others concerned with contemporary currents of thought. All major currents of thought are examined. The authors are keenly aware of the challenges created by globalization and seek a middle road between the objectivism of traditional positivism and the extreme relativism of postmodernist advocates. " Georg G. Iggers, PhD, Distinguished
Professor Emeritus, "STIMULATING AND HIGHLY PROVOCATIVE. . . . This book stands as an important contribution to the debate on history in the new millennium and should be read closely by any researcher working within historical studies. Its value will no doubt become increasingly evident as the debate unfolds in the coming years." David E. Thornton, PhD, Assistant
Professor, Department of History, Bilkent "VALUABLE AND REVEALING. . . .
Should be read by every scholar concerned about how global
historiographical debates shape and interact with national scholarly
traditions in history."
