The Canadian Historical Review publishes scholarship on Canadian history, encompassing political economy, social movements, environmental history, and international relations. Recent articles examine the interwar political economy and business influence, the impact of generative AI on historical disciplines, environmental activism and resource extraction in Alberta, the global context of naval base establishment in British Columbia, diplomatic relations and domestic concerns during the visit of a German warship to Montreal, and the historical abolitionist movement against the death penalty in Canada. The journal also features discussions on the ethics and methodologies of historical research, including the use of AI and the examination of historical biases.
