While not a topic we've featured enough here at the Toynbee Prize Foundation, military history is alive and well and a necessary part of the conversation on global history. Luckily for its practitioners, too, there's a recent call for applications for a great job at the University of Texas-Austin, whose Department of History is in the process of re-orienting itself towards transnational approaches. As a recent call for applications announces,
