Conference: Experiencing the Borders, Research Centre Ukraine
The Research Centre Ukraine of the Max Weber Foundation (MWS) invites submissions for the conference “Experiencing the Borders: The Long 1940s and Their Legacies in (Eastern) Europe” taking place in Lviv, September 16-18, 2026. The conference will focus on the multiple borders in Europe that were drawn and redrawn, experienced and installed, moved and secured throughout the long 1940s – a period of violence and upheaval shaped by annexation, war, occupation, and postwar settlements. Since 1991, this internationally established border system has been radically transforming, and increasingly violently so. It is no coincidence that this new era has witnessed the spectacular development of border studies in the social sciences.
Deadline for submissions: April 20, 2026 | DETAILS
