What is political history now? What does writing political history in the 21st century entail? What are the main themes in current political historical scholarship? Which future pathways of political history are important? In our lectures in Political History internationally renowned scholars from the field of political history address these questions from the perspective of their research.

The lectures are held several times every academic year and are open to staff and students from Utrecht 木瓜福利影视 and beyond. Each lecture is followed by complimentary drinks. We look forward to welcoming you at the lectures.
