In the field of European integration history and Europeanisation, the master narrative was built for a long time on the “founding fathers” syntagma, overlooking the role of women.

This programma?c paper departs from the premise that new technologies, whether analog, digital, or both, have long been applied to the various steps that make up the historical research process. It argues that the ques?on of how to frame a history of digital history can thus not be reduced to the ques?on of when digital electronic compu?ng entered historical research, an oGen implicitly assumed star?ng point.

Avoir « le plaisir de rouler en musique » en utilisant un autoradio est encore peu courant en France lorsque Philips lance ce slogan publicitaire en 1958. La plupart des Français n’ont même pas encore « le plaisir de rouler », car seul un faible pourcentage de ménages possède une voiture. Mais au cours des deux décennies suivantes, cette situation change de manière significative tandis que le taux de possession d’autoradios augmente également. Cette présentation vise à examiner l’introduction de l’autoradio dans la société française

Dr. Inna Ganschow’s presentation is a nuanced reconstruction of the historical events concerning Soviet forced laborers in Luxembourg during World War II.

This chapter analyses the historical development of Luxembourg's economy from a comparative perspective (with other EU Member States) and from a geopolitical outlook (with regard to the world's smaller States), and then highlights its strengths and weaknesses in the dual context of globalisation and polycrisis. The conclusions take a forward-looking approach at the main challenges facing Luxembourg's economy.

With Ukraine’s independence in 1991, mental maps about Ukraine have re-emerged with the processes of post-communist nation-building and state-building. In the post-Cold War period, these mental maps have been shaped by a variety of foreign and national actors, propagating simplistic narratives that imply spatial fragmentations of Ukraine based on history, political orientation, ethnicity, language, and socio-economic differences – unfolding in spatial terms such as Malorossiya, Novorossiya, Galicia, Transcarpathia, Bukovina, and the East-West divide.

This talk was part of a special panel entitled "Histories of Digital History: An Integral Part of the History of the Humanities?". See the abstract below: This panel seeks to engage the manifold histories of digital history set within the broader context of how new technologies have shaped historical research practices and knowledge production since at least the late 19th century. It aims to frame this investigation as an integral part of the history of the humanities and historiography, as well as the history of knowledge more generally.

The Luxembourg international financial centre developed considerably during the 1960s, propelled by several factors including concerted government policy, flexible regulation and a willingness to harness opportunities at international level. The decision to establish various Community institutions (the ECSC High Authority) and European funding institutions (EIB) in the country also had a decisive impact. The currency union with Belgium and the absence of a Luxembourg Central Bank made these developments all the more significant.

Ce panel souhaite explorer l’évolution du patrimoine et de l’histoire des codes, que ce soit sous l’influence de la préservation des codes source ou encore d’un renouvellement historiographique porté entre autres par les Critical Code Studies. Les initiatives de la fondation Software Heritage depuis 2016 de préservation mais aussi valorisation des codes comme patrimoine, de même que les travaux en cours dans le champ historique témoignent de ce renouveau qui fait suite aux travaux de Nathan Ensmenger, Martin Campbell-Kelly et bien d’autres.
