Summary "History Under Debate: International Reflection on the Discipline is a crucial examination of comparative, critical perspectives on history, historians, and their audiences. In this book, historians from around the world explore new trends, movements, and conceptualizations in history as a discipline and a profession. This guide presents innovative approaches for use by historians as they redefine their discipline in relation to the global society of the new millennium."--Jacket
