| adam_text | The contemporary history handbook is the essential guide to anyone
studying,researching or simply interested in the contemporary
period. It presents a collection of accessible and challenging essays on
major debates about the recent past and a set of comprehensive and
invaluable guides to contemporary sources.
The volume is divided into three main sections, which together
comprise a reference work for contemporary historians who wish to
explore the recent past in conventional ways and for those who are
pushing the boundaries and expanding the definitions of what
constitutes contemporary history. The first section, debates in
contemporary history, comprises a series of essays which cover issues
as diverse as postmodernism, world security, the end of history,
gender and multi-racialism. The section concludes with a defence of
the role of the historian in the contemporary world by Eric
Hobsbawm. The second section fulfils Barraclough s demand that
contemporary history include global perspectives by analyzing the
current debates among commentators and historians on Western and
Eastern Europe, the USA, Latin America, Japan, China, Africa, Russia
and the Indian sub-continent. The final section on sources for
contemporary history covers the problems and possibilities of
conventional primary sources - for instance private papers,
parliamentary records and the PRO - and it examines the importance
of uniquely contemporary sources such as television, computers,
multimedia and living witnesses. The handbook concludes with
useful addresses and other information.
The contemporary history handbook offers a cohesive yet broad-
based overview of contemporary history and the tools for its study by
leading experts in the field. It is both a perfect reference guide and a
stimulating contribution to the field which should be useful and
provocative for students, researchers and specialists.
