The American Society for Environmental History seeks understanding of the human experience of the environment.
Emphasis is on the perspectives of history and the liberal arts and sciences.
The Society encourages dialogue among the disciplines on every aspect of the present and past relationship of humankind to the natural environment. To these ends, the Society organizes conferences and publishes a refereed journal. National meetings take place yearly. ASEH welcomes new members be they students, independent scholars, teachers or university faculty. Members receive a subscription to Environmental History and to the ASEH newsletter.
