Studies in German History

Published in Collaboration with Berghahn Books 
Series Editor: Simone Lässig with the assistance of Patricia C. Sutcliffe

Studies in German History, the GHI’s series with Berghahn Books, serves as a transatlantic forum on German history. From 2023, the series publishes most titles in Gold Open Access. This facilitates the institute’s pursuit of three aims with the series. First and foremost, the GHI utilizes the series to bring the monographs of German scholars at the outset of their careers to a wider audience. Second, it highlights the GHI’s support of new approaches and methodologies in Central European history by publishing essay collections based upon GHI-organized conferences. And third, it selects a few outstanding German-language publications and makes them available to an international audience in English translation.
