Institutional Agreement
Lancaster University has signed an agreement (until 31 December 2025) where corresponding authors at Lancaster University can receive 20% discount on article processing charges for MDPI's fully open access journals. Only one discount through an IOAP scheme is permitted per paper and any discount offered by the editorial office is inclusive of the IOAP discount (e.g., discount vouchers, or waivers). The IOAP discount can be combined with reviewer vouchers, but cannot be stacked with a society membership discount. Currently the library can approve UKRI funded papers only (where 30% discount should be applied).Histories of People and Place
The International Journal of Regional and Local History aims to publish high-quality academic articles which address the history of regions and localities in the medieval, early-modern and modern eras. Regional and local are defined in broad terms, encouraging their examination in both urban and rural contexts, and as administrative, cultural and geographical entities. Regional histories may transcend both local and national boundaries, and offer a means of interrogating the temporality of such structures. Such histories might broaden understandings arrived at through a national focus or help develop agendas for future exploration.
The subject matter of regional and local histories invites a number of methodological approaches including oral history, comparative history, cultural history and history from below. We welcome contributions situated in these methodological frameworks but are also keen to elicit inter-disciplinary work which seeks to understand the history of regions or localities through the methodologies of geography, sociology or cultural studies.
The journal also publishes book reviews and review articles on themes relating to regional or local history.
