2021/09/02


This conference aims to deconstruct and disentangle European history as the subject of all histories, and suggests the possibility to write connected histories of the processes of social inequality and labour coercion that emerged from various parts of the world in distinct periods.
The discussion of this WORCK Conference Day is based on a reader, assembling key publications on the study of social inequalities and global history.
