Anmeldeschluss: 15.02.2024
The Hungarian Historical Review invites submissions for its third issue in 2024, the theme of which will be
Agrarian productivity and efficiency in East Central Europe: social and spatial aspects (from the fourteenth century to the twentieth)
Deadline for the submission of abstracts: February 15, 2024.
Deadline for the submission of accepted papers: May 31, 2024.
Land revenues were a key source of income for East Central European societies up to the twentieth century. However, neither estimates of land incomes nor the distribution of these incomes across social groups are based on reliable, consistent data concerning output per hectare or per capita. Either such data are simply unavailable from earlier centuries, or they touch only on smaller areas which have then been used in support of often biased extrapolations. Historians have thus been compelled to rely on proxy data, such as information found in sources concerning land taxes, soil quality, the quantity of seeds sown, and seed output compared to seeds sown. The considerable variety of units of measurement used in different regions has also hindered any larger comparison over time.
Recent trends involving quantitative statistical analysis, systematic database building, and hGIS techniques may give a new impetus to research targeting grain output estimates, including, for instance, the quantity of labor used for production, the distribution of output across social classes, and spatial and/or temporal analyses of agrarian outputs. For example, grain outputs (compared to sown seed) in Hungary ranged from 1:3 to 1:5 throughout the eighteenth century, but they were influenced by several factors. In addition to the physical geographical surroundings, estate size and cultivation methods also influenced efficiency, resulting in a great diversity according to the countrywide data concerning settlements in 1720 and 1728. How did this change over time and in space? What patterns of agrarian outputs characterized Poland or Romania in comparison to Hungary, Bohemia, etc.? Which regions, social groups, and estate types were more productive? Where were inequalities greater? How were incomes and inequalities interrelated?
Acknowledging some of the major steps that have been made in this field, as shown for instance by several sessions of the EURHO-conference in Cluj in 2023, the Hungarian Historical Review invites researchers involved in the questions above to share their findings in this thematic volume of HHR. We welcome new analyses of existing data and sources or comparative articles based on the existing secondary literature. Articles should range from 30,000 to 60,000 characters, including footnotes, tables, and references. Contributions can include diagrams, maps, and pictures, but a vector (ai, eps) or tiff format file of at least 300 dpi should be included alongside (separate from) the article. The desired location of any maps, figures, or diagrams should be clearly indicated in the text.
The topics involved can include:
- quantifying economic outputs or output rates and the efficiency of different products, cultivation methods, social layers, estate types
- economic (rural) inequalities across social classes based on land revenues
- short-term and long-term challenges posed by hindering factors, such as climate change, wars, plagues, etc.
Manuscripts should be based on bulk data processing or statistical analysis or GIS visualizations of territorial entities, social groups, etc.
Please send an abstract of not more than 500 words and a short biographical note with a selected list of the author’s three most important publications (avoid full CVs) not later than February 15, 2024.
Proposals should be submitted to the special editor of the issue by email:
demeter.gabor@abtk.hu, demetergg@gmail.com and hunghist@abtk.hu
The editors will ask the authors of selected papers to submit their final articles (max. 10,000 words) no later than May 31, 2024.
The articles will be published after a double-blind peer-review process. We provide proofreading for contributors who are not native speakers of English.
All articles must conform to our submission guidelines.
The Hungarian Historical Review is a peer-reviewed international quarterly of the social sciences and humanities, the geographical focus of which is Hungary and East-Central Europe.

CfA Racialization and the Politics of Visibility / "View. Theories and Practices of Visual Culture"

01.02.2024- 01.02.2024, "View. Theories and Practices of Visual Culture", Warsaw
Editors: Thục Linh Nguyễn Vũ, Agata Pietrasik
In recent years, the various fields of the Academy (such as anthropology, history and museology), and the institutions that co-create culture (museums, galleries and exhibition initiatives) have both become spaces for discussions aimed at confronting how a thinking rooted in the colonial project continues to shape the production of knowledge and culture. Reacting to (and also shaping) changing paradigms in knowledge and cultural production, these discussions often critically address the positionality of individuals, institutions and social mechanisms, in reproducing scripts of whiteness. Such scripts often have normative overtones and are internalized by individuals both in the majority as well as in minority positions, and by institutions which determine, for example, the visibility of archives. Interventions, exhibitions, subaltern knowledge production, community building and solidarity are some of the ways these established structures are critically engaged. The goal of this engagement is to develop not only ways to confront a problematic legacy, but also to create a new, inclusive language.
For this issue of View, we want to focus less on declarations, demands, proposals for change, or visions for the future, and instead explore both historical and contemporary interventions and reflections on practices and contestations of visibility policies of minorities and racialized people (including those racialized as white and intersectional). We are interested in how archives structure and create knowledge regarding relations with countries of the Global South, as well as the history of local immigrant communities in Europe. We are also interested in how the archives themselves, the institutions, and the production of knowledge and culture, are altered by these contacts and immigrant activism:
- How is the visibility of art produced outside Western centers or created by artists from marginalized communities in art galleries and museums being shaped?
- What are examples of immigrant community activism around visibility and knowledge production in both institutions and public spaces?
- How has the historical visibility of artists and communities from Jewish, Roma, Tatar, Black and Asian communities, among others, in Central and Eastern Europe, been shaped, and has this affected the contemporary politics of visibility of these minorities?
- How is whiteness constructed and established, especially in the context of Central and Eastern Europe? How do other minorities relate to it?

We are accepting abstracts (maximum A4 page) until February 1, 2024.
Deadline for submission of the first version of the text: April 15, 2024.
Please include: author's bio, abstract (in Polish or English) and bibliography of the text (Chicago-style format). Please send to the editor's email address: redakcja@pismowidok.org.

kuckuck. notizen zur alltagskultur 2/24: #fairarbeiten
Der Wert von Arbeit ist umstritten – in historischen wie gegenwärtigen, parteipolitischen wie zivilgesellschaftlichen, akademischen wie alltagskulturellen Diskursen. Er stellt zugleich eine Grundkategorie von (Erwerbs-)Arbeit in kapitalistischen Gesellschaften dar. Die Tauschbeziehung zwischen Arbeitskraftverkäufer:in und Arbeitskraftkäufer:in wird in erster Linie monetär ausgeglichen: Arbeit für Geld. Neben dieser finanziellen Form sind weitere Arten von Anerkennung notwendig, um die Bedürfnisse der Arbeitskraftverkäufer:in zu erfüllen; etwa Sicherheit, Wertschätzung, Sichtbarkeit, Prestige. Neben dem Erwerb von ökonomischem Kapital erhalten gewisse Berufsfelder (bsp. Kunst, Kultur, Wissenschaft) und auch Freiwilligenarbeit symbolisches Kapital - bleiben dennoch in prekären Arbeitsverhältnissen verhaftet.
Der #fairarbeiten-kuckuck fragt nach dem Verhältnis von Fairness und Arbeit vor dem Hintergrund aktueller Transformationen der Arbeitswelt. Der Blick richtet sich auf vielfältige Bereiche und Akteur:innen: produktive und reproduktive Arbeit, Lohn-Arbeit und Care-Arbeit, schlecht oder gar nicht bezahlte Praktika, Freiwilligenarbeit und Ehrenamt, prekäre Selbstständigkeiten; von Zusteller:innen bis zu Reinigungskräften, von Kultur- bis zu Fließbandarbeiter:innen, von Kopfarbeit bis Handarbeit.
Prekarität ist überall. Mehr, schneller, effizienter produzieren folgt den Prämissen der Moderne. Subjektivierung und Flexibilisierung erfahren Zuspruch und bewirken tendenziell das Auflösen der Grenzen zwischen Arbeits- und Privatleben. Unterschiedliche Achsen der Ungleichheit konvergieren: Rassismus, Klassismus, Sexismus, Alter. Die (Re-)Produktion von (un-)gerechten Arbeitsverhältnissen wird durch Mehrfachdiskriminierung, befristete Arbeitsverträge, fehlenden Arbeitsschutz, niedrige Entlohnung, Leiharbeit, Flexibilisierung in Bezug auf Arbeitszeit, -ausmaß und -ort vorangetrieben.
In der #fairarbeiten Ausgabe des kuckucks stehen Fragen um atypische Erwerbsverhältnisse gekennzeichnet von einer politischen Ökonomie der Ungewissheit, um gerechte und ungerechte Tauschbedingungen im Zentrum.
Welchen Wert hat Arbeit? Was ist faire Arbeit? Was ist fairer Lohn („Fair Pay“), was fairer Arbeitsschutz?
Wie gelingt faire Behandlung am Arbeitsplatz ohne jegliche Diskriminierung?
Wie verändern Rekonfigurationen in der Arbeitswelt Gesellschaftsentwürfe?
Wie werden Dynamiken, die Selbstausbeutertum fördern, aber kollektive Widerstände gegen Arbeitsregime und Arbeiter:innenkämpfe hindern zu scheinen, verhandelt?
Wie steht es um Selbstverwaltung der Arbeitnehmer:innen und Gewerkschaften?
Welche Kämpfe ergeben sich um faire Verteilung von Care-Arbeit in und außerhalb des Arbeitsplatzes?
Welche Auswirkungen haben Prekarität, Austerität, (Langzeit)Arbeitslosigkeit?
Welche Rolle spielt Digitalisierung? Wie steht es um Möglichkeiten, dass uns die Arbeit durch Automatisierungsprozesse und künstliche Intelligenz abhandenkommt?
Wird arbeiten in Zukunft ein Privileg sein?
Wir freuen uns auf empirische, essayistische, künstlerische, aktivistische sowie konzeptionelle Beiträge zu #fairarbeiten. Um elektronische Einreichung der Abstracts (max. 150 Wörter) sowie einer kurzen Biographie bitten wir bis zum 23. Februar 2024 an kuckuck@uni-graz.at.
Das Abgabedatum für die Beiträge ist der 31. Juli 2024. Die Beiträge sollten nicht länger als 25.000 Zeichen inklusive aller Verweise sein und durchlaufen einen kollaborativen Review-Prozess durch die kuckuck-Redaktion.
