International Society for Alpine History

The International Society for Alpine History (French: Association Internationale pour l’Histoire des Alpes, Italian: Associazione Internazionale per la Storia delle Alpi, German: Internationale Gesellschaft für historische Alpenforschung) promotes research on the history of the European Alps and publishes an annual Journal.

The Laboratorio de Storia delle Alpi at the Università della Svizzera italiana is the secretariat of the Society and develops its own scholarly agenda.

The annual journal of the Society is Histoire des Alpes – Storia delle Alpi – Geschichte der Alpen (started in 1996).

It organizes scholarly meetings, public talks, and offers a framework for encounters for a group of young “associate researchers” in the universities of the Alpine area and beyond.

Besides the annual Journal, the LabiSAlp publishes the book series "Studies on Alpine History"[1] and the working papers "Percorsi di ricerca".
