From Space to Place: The spatial Dimension in the History of Western Europe

Date: 
16 April 2010 - 17 April 2010

This conference will explore the so-called ‘spatial turn in history’ discussed among historians for the last decade or so and inspired by earlier anthropological ideas and the interdisciplinary approach by sociologists, especially geographers. It challenges the idea of place or space in history as an unreflected essentialist category linked to tradition and immutability.
