About v2
The Journal of Digital History (JDH) is a joint initiative of the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) at the University of Luxembourg and the De Gruyter publishing group.
The journal serves as a forum for critical debate and discussion in the field of digital history by offering an innovative publication platform and promoting a new form of data-driven scholarship and of transmedia storytelling in the historical sciences. As an international peer-reviewed open access journal, the JDH sets new standards in history publishing based on a novel multi-layered approach. Based on code notebooks, articles include:
- a narration layer exploring the possibilities of multimedia storytelling;
- a hermeneutic layer highlighting the methodological implications of using digital tools, data and code;
- a data layer providing access to data and making it reusable (when possible).
The JDH is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal. It publishes research on all aspects of digital history. Abstracts must first be submitted via the journal website before full papers can be submitted. The managing editor will contact the author(s) to assess the feasibility of the paper. Once the managing editor has approved the paper, it should be submitted in full. Papers must contain the three layers that are characteristic of the JDH. Each layer is evaluated by means of a double-blind peer-review procedure. If you have any editorial questions, you can contact the managing editor.
The JDH is developed and supported by the C²DH team with wide-ranging expertise (in alphabetical order): Robert Beta is a Systems Administrator at the C²DH. Frédéric Clavert is Assistant Professor in Contemporary History and JDH Managing Editor at the C²DH. Andreas Fickers is Director of the C²DH and Editor-in-Chief of the JDH.

Starting January 2024 [before], the Journal of Digital History follows a single-blind peer-review policy, meaning that reviewers know the name of author(s) of article they review, but that authors do not know their article's reviewers. This policy has been chosen after careful consideration and validation by the Journal's board, as it best fits the Journal's values and specificities. This policy might be changed in the coming years, as the question of the open peer review will be considered. In any cases, any changes will be publicly announced.
[before]: Before 2024, the JDH followed a double-blind peer review process. One of the things that had us change our minds is the difficulty to find peer reviewers, the workload for our editors, that is quite high as the Journal -- using jupyter notebooks -- has already a very specific way to publish articles.
Nevertheless the Journal of Digital History's editorial team and board are conscious that a single-blind peer review process can lead to many biases, most often unconscious, linked for instance to gender or origins of authors. This document is hence aimed at peer reviewers, to promote ethical review practices. Our wish is to publish articles based on rigorous and ethically sound research.
After careful examination of several other journal's statement on ethical peer review process, we have retained five points, inspired by Cambridge University Press, a texte that follows COPE guidelines.
