Submissions for Spring 2012 are now being accepted! This year’s theme is THIEVES AND TYRANTS. History has been marked by individuals and groups that have exhibited extraordinary charisma, aberrant behavior, and a knack for bending or breaking laws and customs. Whether these actors are dictators, imperialists, pirates, rebels, vigilantes, or demagogues, all have had a hand in transforming or transgressing traditional power structures and social, political, and economic norms. Tufts Historical Review seeks outstanding articles that explore the historical development, application or understanding of tyranny and deviance that have shaped civilizations, cultures, and polities.
