Seeking to enhance scholarly debates from both the scientific mainstream and beyond to support the accessibility and visibility of a variety of approaches, the journal seeks to particularly foster a transnational and cross-cultural dialogue as well as an interdisciplinary understanding between academics, scholarly traditions, ontologies, and epistemologies from diverse geographies and contexts. Connecting different domains of knowledge, the journal addresses theoretical and empirical questions, while also showcasing innovative methods that seek to generate new scholarly understandings, with the aim of creating a global community of academics who are mutually concerned with the promotion of sound scholarly work.</p>https://eterna.unibas.ch/htce/article/view/1396Is there a place for hope in history education2024-08-20T17:46:14+00:00Bjorn Wansinkb.g.j.wansink@uu.nl<p>To hope is an integral part of being a human (Webb, 2012). Several educators have suggested that hope should play a crucial role in education to empower young people to shape their own futures and build resilience (hooks, 2003; Freire, 1994; Jacops, 2005; Vlieghe, 2019; de Winter, 2024). I propose that history can and should offer inspiring examples to provide hope for the future, but teaching "hopeful histories" presents both historiographical and ideological challenges. With this miniature I want to start a broader discussion by exploring the question: Is there a place for hope in history education?</p>2025-04-15T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2025 The Author(s)
