  Declines and Falls. Perspectives in European History and Historiography

  Twenty Years of the European Review of History

  Anniversary Conference of the European Review of History / Revue d’histoire européenne. We have in mind a conference that historicizes the current experience and discussion of “decline” in each of these senses. While there is scope for addressing “real” processes in the economic, social and political realm, we are more interested in the conditions under which the perception of “decline”, “crisis”, “decay”, “disintegration” etc. has tended to become prominent in public discourse; more generally, in the ways in which such perceptions have shaped mentalities and cultural-intellectual responses of Europeans over the past three millennia.
