And, how can trans-national perspectives enrich gender history? Among important questions is what kind of research from other regions do Nordic women\u2019s and gender historians discuss and identify with. Also, what is global, national or regional in women\u2019s and gender history in different historical periods? In other words, how do women\u2019s and gender historians use and discuss borders in historical periods from local and global perspectives. Does gender perspective change traditional borders in history?<br \/>\nThe women\u2019s movement seen from local and trans-national perspectives is an upcoming theme: How did women of different nationalities interact with each other in times of emerging feminism and demands for women\u2019s rights?<br \/>\nTheoretical, methodological and epistemological issues need to be discussed: The importance of research in women\u2019s and gender history, how gender can be used analytically on different levels in time and space. And, the relation of women\u2019s history and gender history after poststructuralism. Are they now two equally acknowledged fields of study?<br \/>\nOther important topics within the theme Gender, Space and Borders, are:<br \/>\n\u2022 The history of historiography.<br \/>\n\u2022 Gender perspective in demography.<br \/>\n\u2022 The feminisation of the working class movement.<br \/>\n\u2022 Work and gender.<br \/>\n\u2022 Masculinity in history.<br \/>\nHistorians are encouraged to keep the trans-Nordic perspective in mind when proposing and organizing sessions and workshops.<br \/>\nThe conference languages will be Scandinavian and English.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The IX Conference of Nordic women\u2019s and gender historians.
