With a new academic year, a new season of the monthly-organised IISH Seminar Series commences, with a slightly changed format. The presentations will be kept shorter to leave more room for Q&A and discussion, to accommodate a more lively discussion we hope to encourage all attendants to read the papers in advance.

The papers of Balazs Nagy (c1927-2015) illustrate the international nature of Trotskyism. Nagy took the pseudonym Michel Varga for some of his writings. His papers, which are held at Senate House Library, University of London, have just been catalogued online. Most of Nagy’s life was spent as an exile in France. Unsurprisingly his archives reveal much about contemporary French Trotskyism but there is a great deal of material on Trotskyism in the UK from the mid-1970s onwards.
The mission of the European Holocaust Research Infrastructure (EHRI) is to support the Holocaust research community by building a digital infrastructure and facilitating human networks.
