International Labor and Working-Class History is a semiannual publication of Cambridge University Press affiliated with the Graduate Faculty's Committee on Historical Studies at the New School University in New York City. ILWCH explores the historiographic dimensions of class and labor in all of their varied dimensions: theoretical, social, political, cultural, and intellectual. The journal also reaches beyond history into the other social sciences, connecting labor to histories of race, gender, migration, technology, and a host of other topics.

The Journal of American Ethnic History, the official journal of the Immigration and Ethnic History Society, is published quarterly and focuses on the immigrant and ethnic/racial history of the North American people. Scholars are invited to submit manuscripts on the process of migration (including the old world experience as it relates to migration and group life), adjustment and assimilation, group relations, mobility, politics, culture, group identity or other topics that illuminate the North American immigrant and ethnic/racial experience.
Each journal issue contains articles, review essays and single book reviews. There are also occasional sections on "Research Comments" (short articles that furnish important information for the field, a guide to further research or other significant historical items that will stimulate discussion and inquiry) and "Teaching and Outreach" (essays which focus on innovative teaching methods or outreach efforts). The journal has also published special issues on particular responses from authors on specific topics.
Labor History aims to be the pre-eminent site for scholarship in the history of work and its representation, labor systems, social reproduction of labor, social class, occupational culture and folklore, and worker migration as well as the place to go for new research and argument on the history of the labor movement, labor politics, and industrial conflict and regulation. While rooted in studies of the United States, LH seeks to contribute to a critical literacy encompassing trans-national and even global historical transformations. To that end we particularly welcome contributions in Canadian and Latin America/Caribbean history. Seeking historical perspective, we invite submissions on the designated themes not only from academic historians but also from other scholars, journalists, labor educators, and writer-activists. Research articles, interpretive essays, and classroom-related materials-such as a document or specific exercise-are equally welcome.

New Labor Forum began in 1997 "at a time of hope and a growing sense of revival after labor’s decades-long decline. The times have grown more perilous since then. Labor faces enormous, perhaps life and death, organizational and political challenges both at home and abroad. All the more reason for a journal dedicated to probing the strategic and practical conundrums that must be resolved if those inspiring promises of just yesterday are to stand much chance of being kept."
