“…To this day, transnational history has produced a rich bibliography on the processes of circulation, interaction and exchange that shape global knowledge and educational practices. A good number of these works make it clear that, although the transnational perspective was originally identified with the movement of goods and money, there is also a focus on people, on the social spaces in which they are related, on the networks that they build and in the ideas that they exchange (Clavin, 2005, p. 422;Goedde, 2017). From a similar perspective, other authors such as Snyder (2003, pp.…”

The purpose of the article is to present those studies in the field of the History of Education that have emphasized international influences and educational modernization. To do this, the first part of this article addresses the origin of this type of research within the History of Education. We then focus on analyzing the subsequent evolution that occurred with the beginning of the transnational turn and its impact on educational-historical research. Through a bibliographic review, we attempt to highlight the importance of studying international organizations, public diplomacy, the Cold War and Modernization Theory in order to understand the transformations that took place in educational systems worldwide during the second half of the 20th century. All these elements reveal more clearly the factors that made countries with different political regimes, cultural traditions or educational models begin to develop similar educational policies. Finally, this article points out the value of new research to understand the origin and development of certain policies at the international level.

“…To understand a country's policy, it cannot be isolated from these norms and networks. By shifting the focus from political results to diplomatic practices, this article builds on the claims of researchers who stress the importance of sociocultural aspects of diplomacy (Gram-Skjoldager 2011;Weisbrode 2016;Goedde 2017; see also Towns 2010. ) Empirically, Margaret van Kleffens's diaries and her husband's memoirs are the main sources for a description of her diplomatic work.…”

Off the record: Margaret van Kleffens and the gendered history of Dutch World War II diplomacy

This article makes the case for recovering women's roles from the forgotten corners of diplomatic history, and for considering the consequences of the gap between feminist and non-feminist research. It shows how ignorance of the gendered nature of diplomatic norms and practices impacts our understanding of diplomatic history, and how specific biographies are hampered by gender blindness in particular. Using the history of Margaret van Kleffens and Dutch World War II diplomacy as an example, the article demonstrates how historians' continued neglect of the role of women and gender norms has influenced representations of twentieth-century diplomacy. To dismiss the history of gender and of women as by definition irrelevant to the actions of states and of male statespersons is not simply part of a selfappointed focus on the political at the expense of the personal; rather, it omits much of the political history too, reproducing stereotypes and resulting in a skewed understanding of diplomatic history and foreign policy decisions. The article argues that both historians and feminist scholars need to historicize gender in order to recognize women's roles in diplomacy, and so gain a better understanding of the history of international politics as a whole.
