We’re excited to share our first issue in #OpenAccess! It examines Koselleck’s thinking, focusing on the interplay between memory and image. The authors examine his methodological use of images, dreams, iconology, and material/visual artifacts to rethink historical experience: bit.ly/46jQZcc

Interesting insights from the conceptual historians KølvraaI and Ifversen about the return of the concept fascism in relation to Trumpism in an article published in @conhistcon.bsky.social. They analyze how fascism functions as an analytical category
but also as a weaponized "Kampfbegriff".
