CfA: (Inter)nationale Frauenkongresse – Zusammenarbeit, Abgrenzung und öffentliche Wahrnehmung

Im Sommer 1904 trafen sich in der Berliner Philharmonie einige hundert Delegierte aus den sechzehn Mitgliedsländern des Internationalen Frauenbundes (International Council of Women, ICW). In zwanzig verschiedenen Sektionen diskutierten sie Fragen der Frauenbildung, der rechtlichen Stellung von Frauen, der weiblichen Berufstätigkeit sowie das weite Feld ihres sozialen Engagements.

CfP: Biographies and Politics: Involvement of Jews and Activists of Jewish Origin in Leftist Movements in 19th and 20th Century Poland

The involvement of the Jews of Poland in leftist political movements in 19th- and 20th-century Poland is a complex and challenging topic. Bundism or Labor Zionism openly combined Jewishness with leftist ideology. The situation is more complicated with actors of Jewish background in non-Jewish organizations, who at least partly did not consider themselves to be Jewish but were regarded as such by others. On another level, we cannot speak unequivocally about “Polish Jews” or “Poland” in the imperial era of the long nineteenth century, as other affiliations were also possible.

CfP: A minor history? The Western communists, anti-imperialism and decolonisation in Africa

Recent years have seen a proliferation of studies on the relations between the communist movement and anti-colonial liberation movements, on the encounters between the ‘socialist camp’ and the Third World, and more generally on communism’s influence on decolonisation and the formation of the postcolonial world. These studies have adopted global- and international-history perspectives which are ever less confined to the classic themes of debates within the Comintern or Soviet strategies during the Cold War.
