BATW Announces New Journal Editor

Our peer-reviewed journal, Britain and the World, published by EUP, has a new editor. 

John Mitcham is an Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of History at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh. His research interests sit at the intersection of race, empire, and settler colonialism. His first book, Race and Imperial Defence in the British World, 1870-1940 was published by Cambridge University Press in 2016 and was a finalist for the Templer Medal. He is currently finishing a new book on white supremacy and the origins of the Commonwealth.

John is eager to build upon the journal’s existing strengths while also expanding its geographical and topical scope. In particular, he is eager for submissions from scholars focusing on Early Modern Britain/Atlantic World, African History, South Asian History, and Black British History.
