Ben jij vroeger ook naar een vakantiekolonie gegaan? Dan herinner je je nog wel de rumoerige eetzalen, de heimwee bij het slapengaan, het zand in de boterhammen, de gemeenschappelijke douches, de kaartjes naar huis met daarop 'We zijn goed aangekomen'.

Call for Papers: "Mutiny and Maritime Radicalism in the Age of Revolution: A Global Survey"

We announce a conference to be held June 17-18, 2011 at the International Institute of Social History in Amsterdam (NL). The conference will explore the transnational dimensions of mutiny and maritime radicalism during the great cycle of war and revolution beginning in the mid-1750s, progressing through the eras of the American, French, and Haitian Revolutions, into the period of the South American Wars for Liberation, and concluding with the revolutionary movements of the 1830s-40s.
