  France and the 1917 revolutions in Russia - new sources and new perspectives

  Nouvelles sources, nouveaux regards

  À l’occasion du centenaire des Révolutions russes de février et d’octobre 1917, cette journée d'études propose de nouveaux regards sur les « événements de Russie » à partir de nouvelles sources et des travaux récents, s’inscrivant dans une double temporalité, celle, très courte, de l’année 1917 et celle, plus longue, de l’immédiat après-guerre, et dans un double espace territorial, celui des territoires nationaux de la France et de la Russie et celui, plus vaste et plus imprécis, de l'ancien espace de l'Empire tsariste et de ses nationalités.

  Populism in Central and Eastern Europe in the 20th Century

  Since the 1990s, several political movements qualified as “populist” have emerged in Central and Eastern Europe, drawing the attention of political scientists. If we want to understand why these movements exercise such attraction and why they are so relentless in this space, it is necessary to cross the study of current politics with the analysis of long term developments. Indeed, since the 19^th century, Central and Eastern Europe has known several movements and political parties that have called themselves or have been labelled as “populist”. In this sense, the long-term approach allows considering the similarities and the differences, according to different contexts and periods, and identifying the reasons and the mechanisms of action of these movements. At last, this historical approach helps to consider the specificity - if there is any specificity - of these movements in Central and Eastern Europe and to evaluate their impact on political cultures of the region.

  Austria and Hungary in the period 1866-1918

  An exceptional contribution to the legal protection of human rights

  En 2016-2017 l’Autriche et la Hongrie fêtent le 150^e anniversaire du compromis constitutionnel de 1866-67. La Constitution adoptée à l’époque a créé un cadre pour un développement rapide de la monarchie constitutionnelle et la construction de l’État de droit. Les premières cours modernes pour la protection des droits fondamentaux (Reichsgericht, Verwaltungsgerichtshof) ont été créées. Vienne et Budapest se sont alors retrouvées dans une situation exceptionnelle. Pour rendre hommage à tous ceux qui ont contribué à cet essor exceptionnel du droit moderne, il est proposé d’organiser un colloque pluridisciplinaire (droit public, histoire du droit, théorie du droit, droit comparé, droits de l’Homme) à Strasbourg.

  Benelux: Europe and the Cold War

  The Power of non-powers and perspectives on the economic, social and political aspects of European Security Strategy in the early Cold War

  What are the historical roots of views of European defense and Europe's role in Western defence? How did the early European Integration movement perceive American involvement in the development of a common security strategy? This conference will investigate these and other related questions by re-examining the early cold war US/European relationship and the role that early Cold War period developments played in the European Integration Movement. In so doing, this conference will also showcase findings which can contribute to the unification of Cold War and European Integration historiographies.
