HISTORIES ON THE FRINGES AND BETWEEN THE MARGINS

Unofficial Histories is a public conference to discuss how society produces, presents, and consumes history beyond official and elite versions of the past.

It aims brings together those who wish to consider historical engagements and understandings that take place within, on the edges of, or outside “official” sites that produce and transmit historical knowledge and ideas.

Roll up, roll up! The fourth annual Unofficial Histories conference will take place in Amsterdam over two days:

In March 2015, IISH staff members Andreas Admasie, Stefano Bellucci and Marien van der Heijden visited the Bahir Dar Textile Factory in Ethiopia to start a digitization project, a cooperation between IISH, the factory and Bahir Dar University. The factory has a probably complete set of personel files, which gives a unique view on workers' life courses.

Actividades culturales

Desde aquella primera reunión en 2007 se han multiplicado los trabajos relacionados con el anarquismo y su presencia en Argentina y en otros países de América Latina. En estos pocos años se digitalizaron y compartieron cientos de archivos, se escribieron varias tesis y se publicaron decenas de libros y artículos.

La quinta edición de nuestros encuentros es una excelente oportunidad para hacer un balance. Es por eso que lo/as invitamos a encontrarnos nuevamente el SÁBADO 13 DE JUNIO DE 2015 en la sede del CeDInCI (Fray Luis Beltrán 125, Flores, Buenos Aires).

The symposium 'Moralizing Capitalism' addresses the impact of moral sentiments on capitalist society and vice versa. In the age of democratic revolutions, industrialisation and the consolidation of capitalism new and different religious and political-ethical movements gained in importance. They were articulated for example by Enlightenment thinkers or in the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. Thus, new conceptions of morality emerged during this period.
