L’Union européenne plonge ses racines dans la Seconde Guerre mondiale (1939-1945), le conflit le plus meurtrier de l’histoire de l’humanité. Alors que l’Europe tente de se reconstruire, des tensions politiques fracturent le continent entre l’Est et l’Ouest et la guerre froide naissante fait resurgir le spectre d’une nouvelle confrontation. Mais comment forger une paix durable entre les adversaires d’hier ? Le problème principal réside dans la relation entre la France et l'Allemagne, ennemies héréditaires, qui se sont fait par trois fois la guerre (1870, 1914 et 1939).

This presentation suggests concrete avenues both to contextualize research on web domains and domain names (e.g. collaboration with the Afnic in France and use of its web archives to retrieve the price of a domain name, its policy for allocating domain names, the number of domain names it allocated with regards to the domain names retrieved in web archives, etc.) but also to create public engagement with this topic (identifying the first web page in each country, the most represented twitter accounts in web archives, etc.).

Based on the experience of the Winter School I conducted for 2 years on Web archives at the university of Luxembourg and which involved research on European events and Europan history by Master’s students, I will draw some methodological conclusions (interesting topics, difficulties in grasping participation, typology of transnational events with regard to Web archives, issues of visual studies and transmedia studies...).

Du réseau ARPANET né dans le contexte de la guerre froide aux réseaux socio-numériques d’aujourd’hui, le développement des communications numériques en réseau a entraîné en cinquante ans des changements majeurs, que ce soit en termes d’usages et de services mais aussi d’utilisateurs, passés d’un public plutôt restreint et universitaire au grand public.

Dynamical processes, such as the diffusion of knowledge, opinions, pathogens, "fake news," innovation, and others, are highly dependent on the structure of the social network in which they occur. However, questions on why most social networks present some particular structural features, namely, high levels of transitivity and degree assortativity, when compared to other types of networks remain open.

„Die auf Quellen aufbauende, flott und allgemeinverständlich geschriebene Monographie geht den verschiedenen Migrationsströmen und den Umwegen nach, auf denen Bürger und Bürgerinnen Russlands nach Luxemburg gekommen sind.

Zuerst die Angliederung an Belgien im Jahr 1920. Dann die Annexion durch Deutschland im Mai 1940. Und letztlich die Rückkehr in den belgischen Staat im Jahr 1945. Auch für die Menschen brachten diese Jahre zahlreiche Veränderungen mit sich: Was richtig gewesen war, konnte nach dem nächsten Wendepunkt falsch sein. Wer davor zur Elite gehörte, konnte nach dem nächsten Systemwechsel ausgeschlossen sein.

Le coronavirus a provoqué le confinement de la moitié de la population de la planète et bouscule drastiquement l’économie mondiale. En termes anthropologiques, deux caractéristiques l’ont aidé à avoir cette diffusion si fulgurante. La menace n’était initialement ni suffisamment visible ni suffisamment effrayante pour être stoppée net par l’instauration immédiate de politiques sanitaires adéquates dans tous les pays à la fois.

The historical work of the Russian-born migration researcher Dr Inna Ganschow describes the migrations from Russia to Luxembourg in the 20th and 21st centuries. The broad representation of the migration flows between the two countries is illustrated with a lot of data and facts and with numerous, often previously unpublished documents and pictures. A large number of individual and family fates are described, which can be traced to this day in the Luxembourg population. It is the first comprehensive publication on this subject.

This article examines the life and career of Pierre Pescatore, one of the most prominent, but also controversial, promoters of European Community law. Drawing on extensive archive material, as well as interviews with relatives, it aims at understanding how and why he left such a strong footprint on the development of Community, later EU, law, both as a judge at the European Court of Justice and as a law scholar. Going beyond a one-man story, the article situates him in the broader
