Over seven years have now passed since the initial eruption of the Arab uprisings. The civil wars they generated in their wake in Iraq, Syria, Libya and Yemen have brought untold destruction and sufferings, including massive internal and external displacements of population, and reversed years of economic development and social attainments.
The Center for Documentation and Research of the Culture of the Left (CeDInCI) turns twenty. Opened in April 1998, it is currently the most important institution in Latin America dedicated to the history of the left, social movements and the artistic and cultural manifestations of the continent. Its collection conserves more than 160,000 books and pamphlets, 10,000 collections of magazines and newspapers, around 2,200 political posters, more than 20,000 brochures and 170 archives and special collections.

Dear colleagues,
this newsletter begins with the decisions of the ITH Board and General Assembly from 21 September 2017 and information on the election of ITH functionaries.
Subsequently, we publish the report on the 53rd ITH Conference “Worlds of Labour Turned Upside Down – Revolutions and Labour Relations in Global Historical Perspective” by Pepijn Brandon.
Furthermore, we inform about a decoration by the Republic of Austria and a Festschrift for our colleague Winfried R. Garscha, who has also been playing a leading role in the ITH since the 1970s.
