3. 2024 ANNUAL CONFERENCE: TRANSNATIONAL, GLOBAL AND IMPERIAL HISTORIES OF EDUCATION (LIVERPOOL)
Friday 1st to Sunday 3rd of November 2024. Creative Campus, Liverpool Hope University
As with other areas of historical study, the history of education is a global field. The ‘transnational turn’ from the late twentieth century has led to the emergence of new approaches and theories that have added complexity and nuance to historical research in education. Meanwhile, growing interest in aspects of imperial and postcolonial history has generated fruitful areas of research on what Eckhardt Fuchs and Eugenia Roldán Vera (2019) have described as ‘the entanglement and mutual relationships of influence between colonizers and colonized’. This interest is increasingly apparent across a range of articles published in History of Education and elsewhere. It has been further encouraged by scholarship that helps recover histories of Indigenous education and by academic institutions’ ongoing efforts to recognise their own imperial histories.
However, what we now describe as ‘transnational’ has a much longer history: people and ideas have circulated in different contexts for centuries, indeed for millennia, long before the existence of national borders as they are currently conceived. This conference therefore invites papers on all aspects of the history of education in its transnational, global and/or imperial dimensions, including on pre-modern periods of the past.
We welcome papers that focus on any region(s) and countries of the world, and on education, broadly conceived. We are keen to understand education in its broader sense and welcome explorations of educational experiences in later life, in workplaces, in the community, within families, as well as in formal institutional spaces of learning. Similarly, we conceive of transnational, global, and imperial histories very broadly to cover any study of education that goes beyond national boundaries, or which considers the movement of educational ideas and practices beyond countries or even continents. How has education varied across communities, nations, empire, and regions of the world over time? How have imperial ideas influenced education and/or knowledge production? How have racialised/gendered and/or classed identities varied over time and across space?
Please note that the list included below is indicative and is far from exhaustive. We welcome any papers that address an aspect that broadly connects to issues of the global, transnational and/or imperial in the histories of education. Nevertheless, papers may address the conference theme through a consideration of some of the following:
Education in imperial, global and transnational settings
Transnational movements, networks of people and the circulations of ideas and/or books in education
Transnational, global, and imperial identities as expressed in and through education
Missionary education
Postcolonialism and/or the decolonialising of education
Anti-colonial struggles in education
Representations of empire in educational materials
Travel, transnational mobility, and global citizenship
Histories of ‘internationalism’ in education
Comparative studies in the history of education
Education and diasporas
Please submit your proposed paper title and abstract of no more than 200 words to Dr Jody Crutchley at crutchj@hope.ac.uk by 21 June 2024.

5. SYMPOSIUM: WOMEN AND EDUCATION IN THE PUBLIC EYE IN THE 19TH AND 20TH CENTURIES (UMEÅ)
The symposium will take place at Umeå University on 31 October–1 November 2024. It aims to bring together researchers from Sweden and abroad, especially those with an historical interest in women in print culture. This will enable the researchers to find transnational connections and circulations of ideas where education, women’s history and press history meet. The organisers invite researchers specifically interested in women’s magazines, journals and books as educational platforms and channels. In addition to individual paper presentations by the researchers invited, the program for the symposium will include two keynote speakers, Stephanie Spencer, Professor of History of Women’s Education at Winchester University (online), and Ning de Coninck-Smith, Professor of History of Education at Aarhus University.
The symposium is organised by Dr. Charlott Wikström, Dr. Emma Vikström and doctoral candidate Badegül Eren-Aydınlık.
Anybody interested in attending the symposium is welcome to send an e-mail to badegul.eren@umu.se no later than 15 July 2024.
