EUTOPIA Summer School
The EUTOPIA Summer School explores violence as a broad theme across time and space, and queries what the manifestation of violence in different contexts can tell us as historians. Born out of the longstanding relationship between Warwick and Dresden, the summer school is run by scholars and experts in the history and study of violence from both institutions.
The summer school is for students at EUTOPIA partner institutions, and primarily aimed at those about to enter the final year of their undergraduate studies. The first summer school was held at TU Dresden between 2-8 July 2023 within the EUTOPIA initiative. The workshop was primarily targeted at senior undergraduate students, and garnered the enthusiastic attendance of 26 students from seven European universities.
In the first instalment of the Summer School, students received many opportunities to explore, among others, the following themes:
- Historiography of Violence
- Gendered Violence
- Colonial Violence
- Violence in Political Discourse
- Representing Violence
- Drink-Related Violence
