Paul Zanazanian is an Associate Professor in the Department of Integrated Studies in Education at McGill University. His research examines historical consciousness’s workings in social actors’ everyday means of knowing and doing when constructing social reality for purposes of living life. Theoretically and methodologically, he explores historical consciousness’s role in the development of individual and we-group identities and their consequent potentials for agency. He pays attention to these manifestations in both formal and informal educational settings. He is co-editor of Teachers and the Epistemology of History (2024), published by Palgrave Macmillan, and author of Historical Consciousness and Practical Life: A Theory and Methodology (2025), published by University of Toronto Press. He also hosts a podcast, History in the Now Conversations, available on his website  historyinthenow.com and on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube.REFERENCING FOR CITATION PURPOSES: Zanazanian, P. (Host).
