All by Refugee History
As Refugee Week 2021 coincided with Refugee History's five-year anniversary, we have taken the opportunity to curate and republish a selection of pieces from our growing archive. These articles were chosen for two reasons: first, they tackle important issues in the field of refugee history, and second, they reflect many of the values and priorities of the Refugee History project.
We are pleased to announce a new Partnership Seminar Series with the Institute for Historical Research on Doing Refugee History. Across a year and a half of seminars, this series aims to create a new network of historians working on forced migration through time and space. We are currently seeking papers for spring/summer 2021, around the theme of Refugee times: seeking refuge in and beyond the 20th century.
This week we run a virtual round table about the Imperial War Museum’s Refugees season, especially the exhibition Forced to Flee. Drawing together the perspectives of researchers, practitioners, and those with lived experience of displacement, it seeks to engage with and reflect upon the scope and aims of the exhibition, its historical remit and comparisons, its artistic and curatorial choices, and its specific exhibits.
