As managing editor, Marral also helped to guide History Workshop through our celebration of the hundredth issue of HWJ. In this article, Marral considers what the archives of the History Workshop movement say about the time and place in which it emerged.

Marral also edited Rethinking Internationalisms, which recovered the voices of artists, farmers, peace activists and pilgrims as agents of global history. In this piece, Su Lin Lewis and Ben Thomas explore how Afro-Asian solidarity once informed a vibrant musical scene.

Marral's series, Radical Horizons, built on this work by examining how different revolutionary groups have imagined a better world - and how activists have used those hopeful futures to guide their own political projects.

Celebrating fifty years of History Workshop Journal also encouraged us to look to the future. In this article, Beckie reflects on how History Workshop's founding ideal of the past as 'common property' informs her work.

Beckie extended her fellowship to coordinate our celebration of the hundredth issue of History Workshop Journal. In this podcast with Sally Alexander, Jeffrey Weeks and Vivien Chan, the speakers discuss the origins of the History Workshop movement and its echoes today.

Beckie's series, Reimagining Disability, continued this work by pushing past medicalising narratives and considering the political, cultural, and economic lives of disabled people - from deaf communities in 1930s China to zine-makers in the contemporary UK.

It's the beginning of a new academic year at History Workshop - and that means some changes to our team. Over the course of today, we'll be saying farewell to our two departing fellows by celebrating the work that they've done at the magazine.

'[The] aim was not to deny or replace disabled people’s decision-making, but to recognise their legal capacity and provide the support they might need to exercise it themselves.' Paul van Trigt on the 2006 Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

"A radical horizon instead invites us to question the limit: it asks if our horizon is indeed the limit & if we could situate it somewhere else. The history of disability offers a particularly relevant & interesting way into this question." So good to see Paul's brilliant work in Radical Horizons!

That's so wonderful!

Such a fascinating piece on labour, capital, and the edges of empire during the Great Depression. I really feel like it's unpacking the roots of a form of inequality we take for granted today.

'A narrow, uneven strip of land [was] crowded with huts, machinery, and areas awash with the organic detritus from lobster processing. Just half a dozen wooden buildings housed the island’s 90 to 100 workers.' Andy Drummond on labour and capital on St Paul's Island.

Between 1930 and 1931, forty-seven people died on a remote fishing station in the Indian Ocean. Andy Drummond examines what their lives and deaths reveal about capitalism and accountability in France's colonial empire.
