Please find the call for collaboration on a project initiated by the International Institute of Social History in the Netherlands.
With this project we aim at collecting data on labour conflicts on a global scale from 1500 to the present.
This new project is a follow-up of the repository https://collab.iisg.nl/web/labourconflicts/ where data is presented from a number of countries.
Recently, Roger Knight’s Sugar, Steam and Steel: The Industrial Project in Colonial Java, 1830-1885 appeared. This book brings together the findings of Knight’s decades of research on the Java sugar industry. We would like to invite you to a discussion seminar on this important work at the International Institute of Social History on Wednesday 10 June at 15.30.

Il y a 70 ans en France, les femmes se rendaient pour la première fois aux urnes... l'occasion pour la BDIC de vous faire redécouvrir "The Suffragette", une collection emblématique de la presse féministe.
Ces militantes de la "première vague" (fin 19ème-début 20ème s.) ont contribué à faire avancer et reconnaitre les droits politiques des femmes en Europe.
Le mot clé "Périodiques du féminisme" vous permet d'accéder aux titres déjà numérisés dans l'Argonnaute. Ce fonds sera amené à s'enrichir très prochainement.
