Éditions de la MSH will be present to showcase their journals and latest publications. This will be an opportunity to meet the editorial team and discover the diversity of content on offer.
Journals presented:

Journals reflect, nurture, and set the pace for academic research, complementing the book sector or resisting its standardisation. More than just a necessary stage, they offer researchers a vital space for innovation. As places of both rigour and openness, they respond to the challenges posed by our increasingly technology-dependent societies and seek to overcome the overspecialisation of contemporary scientific research.
