CARHOP

Annonce newsletter 03-09

Madame, Monsieur,

Chers amis,

Jusqu'il y a peu, le CARHOP n'avait pas diffusé systématiquement d'informations sur ses activités, sauf à l'occasion de certains évènements ponctuels (organisations d'un colloque, d'une exposition, sortie d'un livre, etc.). C'est une lacune qui vient d'être comblée en créant une newsletter à diffusion périodique (en principe trois numéros par an).

Soziale Bewegungen in den Geschichtswissenschaften

Konf: Theoretische Ansätze und Konzepte der Forschung über soziale Bewegungen in den Geschichtswissenschaften

Institut für soziale Bewegungen, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Bochum 02.04.2009-04.04.2009, Haus der Geschichte des Ruhrgebiets
Deadline: 27.03.2009

Die Erforschung sozialer, politischer und religiöser Bewegungen stößt auf reges Interesse. Das zeigen nicht nur die zahlreichen Veröffentlichungen der letzten beiden Dekaden, sondern auch die fortschreitende Institutionalisierung, internationale Vernetzung und die beginnende Kanonisierung in Nachschlagewerken.
