Dear colleagues,
this newsletter begins with the decisions of the ITH Board and General Assembly from 21 September 2017 and information on the election of ITH functionaries.
Subsequently, we publish the report on the 53rd ITH Conference “Worlds of Labour Turned Upside Down – Revolutions and Labour Relations in Global Historical Perspective” by Pepijn Brandon.
Furthermore, we inform about a decoration by the Republic of Austria and a Festschrift for our colleague Winfried R. Garscha, who has also been playing a leading role in the ITH since the 1970s.
