Berlin Brandenburg Colloquium on Environmental History / Berlin Brandenburger Colloquium für Umweltgeschichte Winter 2020/21
The Berlin Brandenburg Colloquium on Environmental History offers an open, local as well as international forum for the discussion of environmental history research in the German capital region. Four sessions are devoted to a broad array of topics, ranging from nature reserves in Israel-Palestine to Scottish Wilderness, from colonial New England forest history to the environmental history of current food consumption patterns, and from the Marshall Plan's Environmental implications to Frank Uekoetter's new book, his opus magnum "Im Strudel".
The colloquium will be fully online. Please e-mail us and we will send you the login data.
