Zu den Aufgaben der Luxemburger Nationalbibliothek gehört u.a. die Erforschung der Luxemburger Bibliothekslandschaft vom Echternacher Skriptorium bis ins 21. Jahrhundert. Die Tagung NS-Bibliothekspolitik und -praxis in Europa schreibt sich in diesen Forschungsschwerpunkt ein.

Although fighting in the European theatre of World War II officially ended in May 1945, for millions of displaced and homeless individuals the struggle had only begun. Large groups of ethnic minorities were subjected to resettlement policies that uprooted them from their former homes. Others, mainly from Eastern Europe, fought against repatriation to their countries of origin. At the same time, Allied occupiers and new governments across the continent began to rethink what sovereignty might look like after the war.

Our common interest lies in multidisciplinary Early-Modern studies on Southeast Europe, roughly the zone of Ottoman dominance or influence.

"Special Issue Call for Papers - Journal of Labor and Society: Imperialism and Resistance in Middle East and North Africa A decade after the epochal revolutions of 2011, the Middle East and North Africa is subject to an extraordinary condensation of the old and new aspects of imperialism. For instance, the 'settler-colonialism' of Israel and the pertinent effects of the 'classical' occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq endure in tandem with new forms of external and regional military interventions.

Queen's Global History Initiative and the Poverty Research Network at University of Glasgow are proud to partner for an upcoming conference: "Poverty and Scarcity in Global History," Feb. 3-5, 2022.

Poverty, or fear of poverty, is ubiquitous in global history. Local instances of want, shortage, and hunger have often been both causes and consequences of global processes.

Argumentaire

Organisée par le GDR Empire russe, URSS et monde soviétique, cette troisième journée d’étude propose de réfléchir à la perception du temps durant les périodes de mutations et d’innovations.
