We invite proposals for a poster session for the international conference "World-Counter-Revolutions: 1917-1920 From a Global Perspective" that will take place in Hanover-Herrenhausen from 9 to 11 June 2016 funded by Volkswagen Foundation.

The Weatherhead Initiative on Global History (WIGH) at Harvard University identifies and supports outstanding scholars whose work responds to the growing interest in the encompassing study of global history. We seek to organize a community of scholars interested in the systematic scrutiny of developments that have unfolded across national, regional, and continental boundaries and who propose to analyze the interconnections—cultural, economic, ecological, political and demographic—among world societies.
