Transatlantic Workshop Bielefeld/Notre Dame 2022

From 13 until 16 May 2022, doctoral students in History from the University of Notre Dame/Indiana and Bielefeld University exchanged research papers and discussed their dissertation projects ranging from ethnographic comparison in Late Antiquity to Fritz Bauer’s Auschwitz Trial and German democracy. In a faculty talk experienced scholars from both institutions reflected their work in progress from the joint perspective “Driving Forces of Transformation and Change”. We thank all contributors for a highly inspiring workshop!

The transatlantic workshop exchange Bielefeld/Notre Dame is a unique format bringing young as well as experienced scholars in History in a conversation about new research projects in two academic cultures. The exchange is hosted in turn by the History Departments of Bielefeld University and the University of Notre Dame.
