Description
Summary:In recent times World and Global History became the fast growing sections of international historiography, mainly due to the interest in North American universities, but also followed by an increasing interest in other world regions. The first European Congress in World and Global History, held from September, 22 to 25, 2005 at the University of Leipzig, explored the field and tried to answer if there are specific European traditions and practices to write and research world history in a global age. In the following section reports from the panels organised during this conference give an impression of a first step towards a new way to think and to discuss about history on the European continent but also in contact with scholars from Australia, the Americas, Asia and Africa.
