[ Was it a man’s world? Intersections of gender and global historyLink defekt? Bitte melden! ]

In the last two decades, global history has altered the field of historical research profoundly. A brief look at recent publications in global history, however, shows that gender relations, and in particular the role of women, are barely mentioned. This conference will bring together scholars from different parts of the world to investigate the extent to which gender relations were a crucial aspect of the birth of the modern world in the long-nineteenth century.

Proposals of two pages (max.) should be sent to Christof Dejung, <christof.dejung@hist.unibe.ch> and Angelika Epple <aepple@uni-bielefeld.de> before 2 July 2021. Accepted papers will be pre-circulated in advance of the workshop, which will be expected to be submitted by 30 June 2022.
