The long 20th century in Eastern and South-Eastern Europe witnessed an accelerated expansion of the national state, its bureaucracies and repressive apparatus. This workshop tackles state encounters with ethnic minorities and religious groups perceived as different from the majority population. Based on new archival sources and interdisciplinary approaches, we aim to discuss the dynamic and multifaceted state encounters in Eastern and particularly South Eastern Europe. the workshop will focus on (but not be restricted to) transnational connections, socio-economic transformation processes and legacies of regimes.

This event is jointly organized by: The Leibniz Institute for East and Southeast European Studies (IOS) and die ORTHPOL Project.

Registration is not required.
