The journal was founded in 1923 as The Cambridge Historical Journal by Harold Temperley. It obtained its present title in 1958 when the journal editors decided to adopt a more global perspective.[1] Despite choosing to omit the Cambridge label from the latter date, it remained under the editorial leadership of the History Faculty at the University of Cambridge, as it does to this day.
Its current editors are Dr. Rachel Leow (Faculty of History, Cambridge University) and Dr John Gallagher (University of Leeds).
