《臺大歷史學報》計畫於2020年6月出版「地方的現代史」專號,由國立臺灣大學歷史學系羅士傑副教授籌劃主編。關於本專號的規劃構想及目的說明如下: 當代以色列史家尤瓦爾.哈拉瑞(Yuval Noah Harari)在《人類大歷史:從野獸到扮演上帝》(Sapiens [From Animals Into Gods]: A Brief History of Humankind)書中,提出一個很有意思的反思:「學者研究歷史,研究了每一個層面,包括政治、社會、經濟、性別、疾病、性、食物、服裝,卻很少有人提到這些現象究竟如何影響人類的幸福。這是我們在史識方面的最大空白之處。」這個反思觸發了新的歷史學研究的可能:如何更具體地從「人怎樣活著」,進一步探索「人怎樣活得更幸福」的切身問題。
