THE HIDDEN ABODES OF PRODUCTION
LABOUR, COMMODITIES AND REPERTOIRES OF EVALUATION IN THE EUROPEAN EIGHTEENTH AND NINETEENTH CENTURIES
Indifference towards any specific kind of labour presupposes a very developed totality of real kinds of labour, of which no single one is any longer predominant. As a rule, the most general abstractions arise only in the midst of the richest possible concrete development, where one thing appears as common to many, to all. – Karl Marx

2015 Eric Fry Labour History Scholarship
The closing date for applications for this scholarship is now the end of March each year. It is open to honours and postgraduate students who intend using collections in the Noel Butlin Archives Centre in their research.
Database launch
As part of the exhibition series commissioned by the Google Cultural Institute to mark the 25th anniversary of the fall of Communism, OSA has curated an online exhibition entitled 1956 - 301 - 1989. Launched on November 13, the exhibition presents the 1956 Revolution, its suppression and the ensuing reprisals, and how the taboo surrounding the events of 1956 was finally broken from the mid-1980s onwards by the Hungarian democratic opposition.
Care/i tutte/i,
in allegato l'invito alla presentazione del libro di Guido Panvini Cattolici e violenza politica. L'altro album di famiglia del terrorismo italiano (Venezia, Marsilio, 2014). Il libro è frutto di un'accurata ricerca condotta anche presso l'archivio della nostra Fondazione e in particolare sul fondo della Fim Cisl degli anni Settanta e Ottanta, che ha portato a riflessioni innovative sugli anni in oggetto.
Data l'importanza dei temi affrontati, vi invitiamo a partecipare numerosi.
Cari saluti.
