A Hybrid Seminar Series for New Research on US History
The European Forum on US History is a rotating, hybrid seminar series curated by seven European institutions, including the Study Centre on the United States (LAB-USA), which deepens historiographical and interdisciplinary exchange, expands our geographic reach, diversifies scholarly voices, and creates new opportunities for joint workshops, doctoral mentoring, and collaborative publications. By promoting an inclusive platform for scholars and reaffirming our shared commitment to cutting-edge research in US history, we support vital cross-border collaboration at a time when restrictions on academic freedom make such partnerships more essential than ever.
At a time when academic freedom faces mounting challenges, this platform strengthens vital cross-border collaboration, diversifies scholarly voices, and creates avenues for mentoring and joint projects. Each session fosters substantive historiographical exchange, with particular emphasis on reframing America's place in interconnected global histories.
The Forum cultivates an inclusive space where doctoral students and established scholars engage with innovative research, exploring how the past illuminates present-day issues. It represents one of the few initiatives of its kind in Europe, and it maintains strong ties with the European American Studies Network (ASN) and EAAS.
This collaborative platform for critical dialogue and interdisciplinary exchange reaffirms our shared commitment to understanding the United States in its full complexity—past and present.
