The discussion on the relationship with Eastern Europe constitutes a recurrent feature of German and Polish political cultures and has materialised in institutions, producing a public discourse on the issue. This expertise emerged in the context of the foundation of the modern German and Polish states and evolved against the backdrop of unstable relations of Germany and Poland with Eastern Europe between the First World War and the new Ostpolitik of Willy Brandt.

Proposed in the United States of America in the 1970s, the term “public history” is now used in various parts of the world. The internationalization of the field of public history raises various questions about its definition, its practices, and its theories. Based on sometimes long-established practices, public history reflects new approaches to audiences, collaboration and authority in history production. The article distinguishes and analyses the different phases of internationalization in the 1970s, 1990s, and 2010s and argues for a new international public history.

This guided poster presentation will give an overview of initial findings from my doctoral research, analyzing how public urban green spaces (PUGS) shaped an urban citizenry in Hamburg and Marseille in the aftermath of WWII and continuing until the First Oil Shock in 1973. Focusing specifically on public parks and playgrounds, these two spaces allow for an in-depth analysis of how urban citizens were meant to spend their free time and how their behavior was formed by the public spaces available to them.

La région comprise entre les villes de Waimes, Malmedy, Trois-Pont, Lierneux et Saint-Vith est connue pour abriter de nombreux tertres d’orpaillage. Ces structures ont été identifiés comme telles à la fin du XIXe siècle donnant lieu à une petite ruée vers l’or locale. Troisautres zones de l’Ardenne belge présentent également des traces d’activités aurifères (près des massifs de Serpont, de Rocroi et de Givogne). Aucune fouille systématique n’y a jamais été pratiquée même si plusieurs recensements ont été dressés par des auteurs provenant d’horizons variés.

This paper will explore a key question for historians today: what are the politics of cultural heritage digitisation and its implications for historical research? What are the benefits and opportunities afforded by digitisation and what challenges arise? How do digital resources shape the historical themes, topics, and debates that can be researched, and how might they influence research agendas more broadly? In what ways can they enable us to ask new research questions or open avenues of inquiry that challenge existing master narratives?
