Integrity Project Conferences

The Integrity Project is an interdisciplinary project which explores the social, institutional, political and psychological preconditions for acting and speaking with integrity; those which undermine the possibility of integrity; and the consequences for individuals and societies of widespread failures of integrity. The project team are organizing two conferences for the spring and summer of 2014, and are looking for historians who would be interested in contributing a paper that connects with the project’s themes.

ILWCH on Strikes and Social Conflicts

A special issue of International Labor and Working Class History (83, Spring 2013) tackles the theme Strikes and Social Conflicts. Social conflicts form a major axis of 20th century history and should constitute an important line of academic research and writing, according to ILWCH issue editors and IISH research fellows Sjaak van der Velden and Raquel Varela. They should be studied in  an interdisciplinary, global, long term historical and non-Eurocentric perspective.
