Abstract
This article provides background on Kazamias’ historical comparative education work. Transnational history as means to respond to Kazamias’ call to “reinvent the historical” is introduced. The article demonstrates how the logics of transnational history differ markedly from the logics of comparison and transfer. The argument advanced is in favor of educational histories of the present, informed by transnational approaches of the past, not as a complement to comparative methodologies, but as a replacement of them.
