Engineers and society in India
From c. 1850 to present times
More than any other, the profession of engineer appears to encapsulate many of the transformations affecting contemporary India today. Engineers symbolise the rise of the so-called middle classes, and the manner in which India has positioned itself as an emerging power in the international labour market, as it has become one of the favourite destinations for major technology firms.

Unter der Frage „Regionale Produzenten oder Global Player ?“ steht die internationale Tagungzur Wirtschaftsgeschichte, die am 6. und 7. Oktober 2014 im Landtag Rheinland-Pfalz in Mainz stattfindet. Zur bislang vernachlässigten Wirtschaftsgeschichte des rheinland-pfälzischen Raums werdenForschungsergebnisse präsentiert. Die Veranstaltung beschränkt sich aber nicht auf dierheinland-pfälzische Geschichte – vielmehr werden hiesige Unternehmen mit Produzenten ausanderen Regionen und Ländern verglichen. Die zunehmende Internationalisierung von Unternehmen ist aktuell ein wichtigesForschungsgebiet in der Geschichtswissenschaft. Von der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts bis zum Ersten Weltkrieg nahm die Verflechtung der westeuropäischen Wirtschaft stark zu. In der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts fand ein erneuter Globalisierungsschub statt.

Democracy and Technology. Europe in Tension from the 19th to the 21st century
Public debate, social media demonstrations, participative assessment, technocracy and transparency: these are just some of the issues on the growing list of multiple and evolving interactions between technology and democracy in Europe since the middle of the 19th Century. The sixth Tensions of Europe conference aims historicizing and exploring these complicated links in long-term perspective. It will address key contemporary issues such as the democratization of technology and the vulnerabilities of technological democracies. The conference will close the ANR funded project « Large technical networks and democracy: innovations, practices and interested parties in long-term perspective, from 1880 to the present day ». The conference will also feature the official presentation of the Making Europe book series, more than 40 panels, and of course the traditional untraditional Tensions events – this time in Parisian style!
