On the surface, historical scholarship might seem thoroughly
incompatible with political engagement: the ideal historian, many
imagine, is a disinterested observer focused exclusively on the
past. In truth, however, political action and historical research
have been deeply intertwined for as long as the historical
profession has existed. In this insightful collection, practicing
historians analyze, reflect on, and share their experiences of this
complex relationship. From the influence of historical scholarship
on world political leaders to the present-day participation of
researchers in post-conflict societies and the Occupy movement,
these studies afford distinctive, humane, and stimulating views on
historical practice and practitioners
