L’équipe des doctorant·es du Centre de recherche en histoire comparée européenne (CRHEC) consacre sa sixième journée d’étude aux figures des travailleurs et travailleuses reconnu·es comme tel·les de l’Antiquité à nos jours. Cette rencontre a pour but d’inviter les jeunes chercheurs et chercheuses à réfléchir au travail reconnu sur le temps long, en replaçant ses acteur·ices dans leur contexte politique, social et économique. L’objectif est d’interroger les rapports de distinction et de valorisation des travailleurs suivant la nature de leur activité.

Call for contributions to a reader on anticolonialism. The primary texts should preferably come from authors who were themselves confronted with practices of colonisation. In particular, we are looking for accounts by intellectuals, politicians and others that not only document colonial exploitation but also criticise the practices, institutions, and ideas of colonialism. The first of two volumes will focus on texts that were written up to the end of WWI.

The life of young people in the communist regimes of Eastern Europe meant a long series of unfortunate events that generated, most of the time, the desire to escape to the free world on the other side of the Iron Curtain. The taste of life in the West, obtained tangentially through various means, such as music or film, to which were added the deprivations and oppression, increased the desire of young people to emigrate to the states where they could benefit from the fruits of freedom. Once there, they entered a world of democracy and freedom, where they could enjoy a number of benefits.
