Uppsala University’s History Department is home to around forty historians with a broad range of interests. Among us are experts on child labour in twentieth-century South Africa, on conflicts over land titles in nineteenth-century India, on food supply in seventeenth-century wars, on the communication of kings with their subjects, and on the treatment of Jews during the Second World War. Our research spans the centuries from Medieval times to the twentieth century, with particular strengths in the period 1600 to 1900. Through our cooperation with the Department of History at Stockholm University, we will broaden our expertise even further.
