Fachkonferenz
Details
Reflecting on the end of WWII in the context of complex global transformations provides the starting point for this series of international conferences, which will take place in three different capital cities that are symbolic places of the end of the Second World War and offer complementary perspectives today, three generations later:
- Berlin, Akademie der Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung
April 29th-30th 2025
- Paris, Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne
June 16th-18th 2025
- New York, Columbia University
October 6th-8th 2025.
This series of conferences is jointly organized by Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne University, Europa Universität Viadrina (Frankfurt / Oder), the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung, and Columbia University. The events will take place in Berlin, Paris, and New York throughout 2025. The series will examine the end of the war from a comparative historical perspective, whilst defining a specific thematic outlook for each of the three cities. The Berlin conference will focus on the situation in Germany and Eastern Europe. The Paris conference will reflect on colonial spaces, including the end of conflicts in North Africa and Asia. The New York conference will adopt a comprehensive approach and will explore the institutional foundations of the post-war world order.
