Starting from 2022, the International Society for Cultural History (ISCH) and the South African Society for Cultural History (SASCH) have entered into partnership. This means that we cooperate by promoting each other’s events and publications, for example. SASCH is an academic society, established in 1982, with the purpose of promoting Cultural History as a discipline in South Africa. See their South African Journal of Cultural History here. See their website here.
National Congress of the SASCH will be held on 16 – 17 September 2022 in Riebeek-Kasteel, South Africa. The theme of the congress is “The importance of visual sources for cultural history”. Download the CfP here:
