25.-26.5.2023, Weltmuseum Wien and online

 

Taking the recent criticism of global history as a starting point, the event seeks to discuss the future pathways of global history. Where is the field of global history headed and how can a more decentralized and diverse practice be achieved? What methods, narratives, and historiographical traditions need to be included to open the field to a broader range of scholars and debates? What does a fairer global history look like?
