Historical research and the production of historical narratives relies on archives. With thedigital turn, both the notion and the function of archive have changed. The practices ofselection, curation, and interpretation of archival sources have been deeply affected by newscientific virtues such as accessibility, sharing, and participation. Web 2.0 technologies and the Internet gave rise to a new type of archive resulting from real time “capture culture” and “event crawls”.

The "Personenstandsaufnahme" of 10 October 1941, a census conducted by the German occupier in Luxembourg with additional questions on nationality, mother tongue and ethnicity, is one of the best-known historical events in Luxembourg's contemporary history. Together with the strike against forced recruitment in August/September 1942, it remains an integral part of the culture of remembrance and historiography to this day.

Despite its historical divisions, Europe was built on a shared set of ideas, ranging from Greco-Latin humanism to the principles of the French Revolution. Over the centuries, many emperors, princes and conquerors, but also philosophers, writers and legal experts developed theories on the rapprochement of the peoples of Europe.

This chapter is not intended to offer an exhaustive state of the art, but rather to reflect on the evolving trends in the history of data networks. It highlights prominent topics within this history. It starts with the narratives surrounding ARPANET and explores government support, competition among companies, governance, and regulation. It looks at how the history of the Internet is linked with the history of pre-networking technologies and alternative developments in networking technologies in countries outside the United States.

Access to API is strategic for archiving and research. The recent European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA) might be a decisive step forwards. But a recent report showed that the platforms’ policies set up to conform to the DSA are very diverse. And the efficiency of those APIs for researchers are yet to be evaluated. In other words, the DSA does not put an end to the APIcalypse: it is geographically limited, and the notion of “systemic risk” that is in the DSA remains ambiguous and this ambiguity allows those firms to restrict researchers’ access to their data.

Diese Dissertation untersucht die historische Entwicklung und Bedeutung von Reparatur- und Wartungspraktiken innerhalb des luxemburgischen Telefonnetzwerks. Durch den Fokus auf soziotechnische Systeme (STS) und „broken-world thinking“ bietet die Arbeit einen neuen Blick auf die oft übersehenen Aspekte der Technikgeschichte. Die Studie untersucht einen Zeit-raum von mehr als hundert Jahren (1885–1992) und zielt darauf ab, Dysfunktionen als alltägli-che und essentielle Bestandteile technischer Systeme zu verstehen.

Memes constitute a significant aspect of online digital cultures (see Shifman, 2014; Milner, 2018; Denisova, 2016). Their role in reactions to events like the Ukrainian war highlights their broad influence. However, preserving memes, especially in their original context, proves challenging (Pailler & Schafer, 2022).
