IALHI 2013 Conference

44th Annual Conference of The International Association of Labour History Institutions (IALHI)

Opening up Social History Repositories: New Technologies and New Methods
The 2013 IALHI conference aims at re-opening a dialog between social history research and archival curation by focusing on the ephemeral and scattered nature of transnational, postcolonial and post-communist collections in the digital age. We want to inspire discussions on the new challenges to social history research, curation and preservation of archival sources, especially in the light of recent changes in East and Central Europe and with the advent of the networked information society.
