Journal History

Jebat (Journal of the History Society of Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia) was first published during the 1971/72 academic session by the History Society of Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. Later, the journal was published by the Department of History. After the restructuring of academic departments in 2002, the Department of History merged with the Department of Political Science and the Strategic Unit, and became a School of History, Politics and Strategic Studies. Now, the school known as Center for Research in History, Politics and International Affairs. As a result, Jebat’s scope expanded to include political science and strategic studies. To this day, the focus on history remains Jebat’s primary emphasis, while it also involves interdisciplinary research on contemporary political science and strategic themes that have historical continuity.
