CfP: Recovering & Uncovering the Past of Diverse Communities in Imperial Spaces: Memory and Self-Organization in Urban Centres of the Eastern European and Ottoman Realms

Deadline for submission: 16 February 2024

Location: Tbilisi, Georgia; Date: 12-13 September 2024.

Conveners: Max Weber Foundation – Georgia Branch Office & Orient-Institut Istanbul in cooperation with Ilia State University, Tbilisi

Conference language: English

The Orient-Institut Istanbul and the Georgia Branch Office of the Max Weber Foundation in Tbilisi are jointly organizing a two-day workshop on the everyday life of urban communities in minority position in imperial pasts; on their memory and heritage. We intend to bring together historians and anthropologists to present diverse experiences of ethnic and religious communities in the cities of the Russian and Ottoman empires. Of particular interest to us are the history of the institutions that these communities created to function within the city, their ethnic and religious infrastructure, forms of agency, and their representation in private memory.

We look forward to receiving your submission!
