By viewing the problem of refugees from a historical perspective, the seminar seeks to complicate and contextualize our understanding of people who have fled political or religious conflicts, persecution, and violence. By bringing together 14 advanced PhD students and early postdocs from different parts of the world whose individual research projects examine refugees in different times and places, we intend to give a sense of purpose to this emerging field of study and demonstrate the value of viewing the plight of refugees from a historical perspective. The seminar is meant as a platform to share research findings, ideas, and work in progress.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sixth Annual International Seminar in Historical Refugee Studies Vienna, September 28 \u2013 October 1, 2026 The University of T\u00fcbingen (UT),&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","aha-topic":[],"month":[560],"event-type":[605],"year":[901],"class_list":{"0":"post-107520","1":"event","2":"type-event","3":"status-publish","4":"hentry","5":"month-september","6":"event-type-conference","7":"year-901","10":"year-2026","11":"no-featured-image"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/107520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/107520\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":107524,"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/107520\/revisions\/107524"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=107520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"aha-topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/aha-topic?post=107520"},{"taxonomy":"month","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/month?post=107520"},{"taxonomy":"event-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-type?post=107520"},{"taxonomy":"year","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.historians.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/year?post=107520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
