Contemporary history of Luxembourg

On 12 October, the Fondation luxembourgeoise pour la Mémoire de la Shoah and the C²DH officially launched the participatory project in the presence of the Minister for Culture, Sam Tanson.

The interdisciplinary conference centralises the temporal dimension of borders, borderlands, and border regions in and beyond 19th and 20th century Europe. Organised by the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) and the Transfrontier Euro-Institut Network (TEIN).

In August 2022, I had the pleasure to participate in the conference of the International Federation for Public History at the Freie Universität in Berlin. Besides meeting colleagues and listening to exciting papers, I held a presentation as part of the panel Public History and the Political Uses of the Past. This blog post is based on my conference paper entitled “Polishing the Image of a Nation-State: Luxembourg and the Political Uses of the Past since the 1990s”.
