Machines Writing Histories Using Insect Algorithms
Insect-inspired algorithms have broad appeal in artificial intelligence (AI). They power the labeling, selection, and grouping of data from the past, including the human past. Insect-inspired AI is therefore of interest to historians and, in particular, environmental historians. On an almost separate track, global environmental histories have highlighted the shaping role of capital in driving extractive activities. AI as capital, though, is not t…

Writing world history
The term ‘world history’ describes one of the oldest, most persistent and \nmost pliable forms of history writing.1 No simple definition is possible, for \nworld histories vary widely in narrative style, structure and spatio-temporal \nscope. Furthermore, a wide assortment of labels have been used to describe \nthem, including ‘universal history’, ‘ecumenical history’, ‘regional history’, \n‘comparative history’, ‘world systems history’, ‘macrohi…
The Cambridge World History
Volume 1 of The Cambridge World History is an introduction to both the discipline of world history and the earliest phases of world history up to 10,000 BCE. In Part I leading scholars outline the approaches, methods, and themes that have shaped and defined world history scholarship across the world and right up to the present day. Chapters examine the historiographical development of the field globally, periodization, divergence and convergence,…
Genders
This article examines the relationship between genders and world history studies. Gender is commonly held to be a neglected topic in world historical scholarship. We could point to the ever-growing body of scholarship that has outlined how gender is implicated in the full range of human activities. The relations that bind men and women, men and men, and women and women together in social, political, economic, and cultural activities are so fundam…
Exploring historical thinking and agency with undergraduate history students
Recent research on historical thinking has instigated important disciplinary conversations and changes in pedagogical practice. They have, however, largely focused on the primary and secondary school sector, highlighting the gap in corresponding research into tertiary education. It is important to look at the experiences of history students at tertiary level, to assess the impact of perceptions and practices on graduate employment outcomes and tr…
Historical Thinking in Higher Education
This article provides an introduction to the results of a nationwide scoping study of student and staff perceptions of the nature and roles of historical thinking. In 2008–09, over 1400 students and 50 staff from 12 universities around Australia completed interviews and questionnaires. This research report examines student and staff responses to the second questionnaire item, asking for an assessment of the connection between particular activitie…
Time and history
Coloring Universal History
The idea of universal history is conventionally associated with nineteenth-century writers and the project of imperialism. This article presents an expanded definition of universal history, one that covers unified histories of the known world or universe, histories that aim to illuminate universal principles, histories of the world unified by the workings of a single mind, and histories of the world that have passed down through unbroken lines of…
Australian Media Reception Histories
As the field of Australian media history expands, so too does the need for a broader and more innovative range of questions, issues and debates. This special issue of MIA responds to that need by considering the sources and research questions raised by media reception historians working on film, radio, television and the press. From print to new media, the papers assembled highlight the ingenuity of Australian historians working to recover the ex…

History Goes to the Movies
Miniaturization of multifunctional instruments is key to evolving less invasive medical procedures. The current work outlines steps towards developing a miniature motor to power a cutting tool of a millimeter-scale robot/device (target outside diameter ~2 mm) for minimally invasive procedures. Multiple motor concepts were explored and ranked using a Pugh matrix. The single-rotor hydraulic design was deemed most viable for prototyping and scale-do…
Palgrave Advances in World Histories
World histories vary widely in shape, structure, and range in space and time. In Palgrave Advances in World Histories, ten leading world historians examine the many forms of world history writing, off
Collingwood and the Early Paul Hirst on the Forms of Experience-Knowledge and Education
Paul Hirst's ‘forms of knowledge’ thesis has been the subject of much discussion and debate in educational circles. Hirst's claim that such forms exist is not original but, as R. S. Peters claimed, his account is distinctive in its application to the school curriculum. This paper calls for a revision of Peters's claim on the grounds that R. G. Collingwood's writings on the forms of experience not only refer to the school curriculum, but also poin…
