Workshop „Rallying Europe: Intersectional Approaches to Youth in the Mid-Twentieth Century“ (Web)
Time: 25.03.2021, 18:30 Uhr
Venue: virtual space, via Vienna
Parting from her research on youth in rural Poland, Dietlind Hüchtker’s presentation will be the keynote and kick-off to the international workshop and discussion on youth and gender as categories for the historical analysis of interwar and Second World War Europe.
The workshop seeks to approach the interwar and Second World War period by looking through the lens of age and gender. In doing so, the organizers hope to reveal how adult perceptions of youth and gender framed young men’s and women’s lives and their roles in society. Furthermore, they want to explore how these perceptions collided with youth agency, probing the specific age- and gender-related dynamics of empowerment and organization.
The keynote will be held online via zoom, details on the login-data will be shared upon registration. Everyone interested in participating in the online keynote and discussion, is cordially invited to sign up at rallyingeurope.zeitgeschichte@univie.ac.at and join the lecture.
Dietlind Hüchtker is a professor for Historische transregionale Studie at the Fakultätszentrum für transdisziplinäre historisch-kulturwissenschaftliche Studien at the University of Vienna since October 2020 (Web).
The workshop’s organizers are Katharina Seibert of the University of Vienna and Barnabas Balint of the University of Oxford.
