Memory places and culture of remembrance in L'viv

Remembrance culture and memory places in L'viv are more and more interesting as a research topic.

To give the students the opportunity of researches on the topic Prof. Jürgen Angelow (University Potsdam/University of the Saarland) organised a seminar on this topic in L'viv 2007 and 2012.

The topics were divided into 6 sessions:

Popularisation of democratic values by the Theodor-Heuss-Kolleg

The Theodor-Heuss-Kolleg was a funding programme of Robert Bosch Foundation. This collegue supported popularisation of democratic values among young people from East Central Europe.

I was a member of the Theodor-Heuss-Kolleg from May 2005 till July 2006. The photos present the finish of the collegue in July 2006 in Berlin.

History of Śląsk / Silesia

History of the borderland on example of Śląsk / Silesia is very important for Poles, Czechs and Germans.

Prof. Angelow (University Potsdam) conducted a seminar related to the history of Śląsk / Silesia from the 18th till 20th century.

Difficult neighbourhood in Alsace and Lothringen

Relationships between France and Germany are called often as "difficult". Especially Alsace and Lothringen are the regions which caused conflicts.

So Prof. Jürgen Angelow and Prof. Bernhard Kroener (University in Potsdam) organised a seminar on the "difficult neighbourhood in Alsace and Lothringen in the 19th and 20th century". It took place at different places in Alsace and Lothringen in 2005.

I gave there a lecture about cardinal Richelieu's politics regarding other European countries.

 

Bologna process in Germany, Hungary and Poland

Students from almost all European countries should be interested in analyses of studies in Europe after the Bologna process.

The Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education publishes a number of changes which are important for universities after the Bologna process.

How it looks like in Germany, Hungary and Poland? Thanks to the cooperation between the Nicolaus Copernicus University, University in Göttingen and Szeged University in Hungary students of those universities could exhange their experiencies after the introduction of Bologna process at universities within a seminar.

The Balkans in the 19. and the 20. century

I took part on a seminar about the history of the relationships on the Balkan in the 19th and 20th century in Varna 2006. On the seminar took part students of history at the Potsdam university and Bulgarian history students.

If you are interested in history of the World War I on the Balkan, I recommend you this book: Der Erste Weltkrieg auf dem Balkan: Perspektiven der Forschung (2011)
