Data

Luxembourg is a de facto multicultural country, with 179 different nationalities represented. It is, however, complex to identify who among the latter is perceived as an immigrant by public opinion. In the same vein, immigration stories rarely make the headlines of some of the most prominent outlets of Luxembourg’s mainstream media. This study covers the print content of some of Luxembourg’s dominant media outlets in the search for the representation of (im)migrants and refugees.

The military offensive launched by the Russian Federation against Ukraine in the early hours of 24 February 2022 and the ensuing war on Ukrainian territory have resulted in immense human suffering, a humanitarian tragedy and incalculable material damage.

Die Schueberfouer ist der größte Jahrmarkt in Luxemburg, der alljährlich gegen Ende des Sommers auf dem Glacis Feld in der Hauptstadt stattfindet. In Luxemburg haben zahlreiche Menschen persönliche Erinnerungen an Besuche und Erlebnisse auf diesem Jahrmarkt, und es wird vielfach über seine historische Bedeutung geschrieben, dessen Ursprünge bis ins Jahr 1340 zurückreichen.

impresso. Media Monitoring of the Past is an interdisciplinary research project in which a team of computational linguists, designers and historians collaborate on the datafication of a multilingual corpus of historical media. The primary goals of the project are to improve text mining tools for historical text, to enrich historical documents with (semi-) automatically generated data and to integrate such data into historical research workflows by means of newly developed user interfaces.

La mise à disposition pour la recherche de données issues du Web archivé correspond à une tendance engagée au sein des institutions patrimoniales depuis les années 2010. Elle se matérialise à l’échelle européenne puis internationale de manière assez inédite à la faveur d’une étude sur l’archivage des traces numériques de la crise de la COVID-19 à partir de 2020.

Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) marked a major step in the European integration history. Inspired by the Werner Report (1970) and the ideas of Robert Triffin, based on the Delors Report (1989) and following the design laid out in the Maastricht Treaty (1992), EMU implies the coordination of economic and fiscal policies, a common monetary policy, and the euro as a single currency, which is shared by 20 EU Member State (the euro area). The euro ranks second in the international monetary system, behind the US dollar. However, EMU remains incomplete.

These courses explor the geopolitical upheavals brought about by the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 (German reunification, the collapse of communism, the break-up of the USSR, the end of the Cold War, etc.) and their consequences on the countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEECs), which turned westwards (to the EU and NATO) as they sought to transition to the rule of law and a market economy in a new area of Euro-Atlantic security rooted in multilateralism.

The paper presents preliminary results from our experiments with large language models, linked data, and semantic change in multilingual diachronic contexts.

The article deals with data wrangling in a multilingual collection intended for diachronic analysis and linguistic linked open data modelling for tracing concept change over time.
