Question

What do you know about the subject matter of environmental history?

Answer 1

During the last 40 years environmental history grew from an interest of some historians and natural scientists into a full-fledged academic discipline. In the United States environmental history gained a firm institutionalised base which is reflected in the fact that the annual meetings of the American Society for Environmental History, established in 1975, attracts over 500 participants. Environmental historical research in Europe is fragmented due to different academic cultures, multiple languages and funding models. However, since the 1980s there have been very promising and successful initiatives, both on the national and pan-European level. In 1986, the Dutch foundation for the history of environment and hygiene Net Werk was founded. One of the most important goals of this foundation was to improve the communication between Dutch researchers with an interest in environmental history. Up to the early 2000s the foundation used to publish four newsletters per year.
