Introduction
Aims and Scopes

The journal covers a wide range of topics within military history, including significant battles, military strategies, and the evolution of warfare technology, providing in-depth analyses that contribute to the understanding of historical military operations. - Interdisciplinary Approaches:
Emphasizing the integration of various disciplines, the journal encourages contributions that intersect military history with sociology, political science, and cultural studies, thus enriching the discourse surrounding military events and their societal impacts. - Regional and Global Perspectives:
The journal encompasses both regional studies and global military histories, allowing for comparative analyses that highlight the interconnectedness of military events across different geographical contexts. - Focus on Marginalized Narratives:
The journal actively seeks to include perspectives that have historically been overlooked in military history, such as the roles of women, indigenous populations, and non-combatants, thereby diversifying the narrative. - Critical Examination of Military Ideologies:
The journal promotes critical discussions about military ideologies, nationalism, and their implications on state policies and social dynamics, facilitating a deeper understanding of how these elements shape historical events.
Trending and Emerging
- Gender and Military Participation:
There is a growing emphasis on the roles of women and gender dynamics within military contexts, as evidenced by increased publications exploring women's combat roles and their representations in military history, highlighting the significance of gender in understanding warfare. - Cultural Memory and Representation:
Recent articles focus on how military history is remembered and represented in various cultural forms, including literature, films, and educational materials, indicating an expanding interest in the cultural dimensions of military narratives. - Transnational Military Histories:
An emerging trend is the exploration of military histories that transcend national boundaries, emphasizing interconnectedness and shared experiences among different nations during conflicts, which offers a more global perspective on military events. - Social Impact of Warfare:
Increasingly, the journal publishes studies that examine the social repercussions of military conflicts, including the impact on civilian populations, refugee experiences, and post-war societal changes, reflecting a broader interest in the human dimensions of warfare. - Irregular and Asymmetric Warfare:
There is a notable rise in the analysis of irregular and asymmetric warfare, particularly in contemporary contexts, as scholars seek to understand new forms of conflict that challenge traditional military paradigms.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Military Strategies:
Papers focusing exclusively on classical military strategies and tactics, particularly those from earlier historical periods, have become less frequent, indicating a potential shift towards more contemporary and interdisciplinary studies. - The Role of Military Technology in Warfare:
There has been a noticeable decrease in articles solely dedicated to the technological aspects of warfare, suggesting a waning interest in this narrow focus in favor of broader contextual analyses that include social and cultural dimensions. - Biographical Studies of Military Leaders:
While biographies of prominent military leaders have been a staple in military history, their prevalence in the journal appears to be diminishing, possibly as researchers pivot towards collective narratives or thematic studies. - Conventional Warfare in Recent Conflicts:
The focus on conventional warfare strategies in recent conflicts, especially in the context of modern military engagements, has seen a decline, potentially due to the increasing relevance of asymmetric warfare and irregular combat. - Purely Nationalistic Narratives:
Papers that align with a strictly nationalistic interpretation of military history seem to be decreasing, reflecting a broader trend towards more nuanced and critical perspectives that question traditional narratives.
