For over forty years, Itinerario has provided a platform for scholars researching the history of imperial and global interactions. Published for the Leiden University Institute for History and mindful of the University’s entangled history with empire and colonialism, we encourage authors to take a global perspective.

Itinerario is committed to sharing the results of academic research through a liberal gold open access policy.
