The History Review is an academic journal produced in the School of History and Archives at University College Dublin. Although it has had a mixed history of varying standards and content, the journal is experiencing something of a transformation as of the spring of 2005.
The History Review claims to be the leading student journal in Western Europe. While it was initially a means to an end for history postgraduates to publish their work in a local academic context, the journal is now an international platform for research and opinion on international relations, history, politics and current affairs.
Special contributors have included John Major, Zbigniew Brzezinski and F.W. de Klerk.

Famous quotes containing the words history and/or review:
“Modern Western thought will pass into history and be incorporated in it, will have its influence and its place, just as our body will pass into the composition of grass, of sheep, of cutlets, and of men. We do not like that kind of immortality, but what is to be done about it?”
—Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
“I review novels to make money, because it is easier for a sluggard to write an article a fortnight than a book a year, because the writer is soothed by the opiate of action, the crank by posing as a good journalist, and having an airhole. I dislike it. I do it and I am always resolving to give it up.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
