European Remembrance
Berlin, Germany | Bundesstiftung Zur Aufarbeitung Der Sed-Diktatur
Does a common European culture of remembrance exists? Is it possible to build a common historical narrative in 21st century Europe? These two questions are in the center of international discussions and debates between history scholars, history academics, researchers, and culture managers. Perhaps talking about “acquis historique communautaire” (common historical experience) is nothing more than a pipe dream? Perhaps there is a common European culture of remembrance, which allow us in Europe to better understand each other and to better cooperate with one another?
These questions will be the focus of the European Remembrace Conference, the 2013 edition of the International Symposium of European Institutions Dealing with 20th Century History.
