In 2013-2014 the tercentenary commemoration of the signing of the Treaties of Utrecht and Rastatt, which concluded the War of the Spanish Succession, will take place. In the context of several activities organized by the city and province of Utrecht, a series of three conferences aims at reassessing the nature and significance of the Peace of Utrecht: starting with an exploring workshop in Osnabrück, followed by two conferences in Madrid 2012 and Utrecht 2013.

The treaties marked the close of forty years of warfare, in which many of the major European states were involved: France, Britain, Spain, the Dutch Republic, the Holy Roman Empire, Savoy and Portugal, it is said to have restored the ‚Balance of Power‘ in Europe and once again ended the wars of religion of the seventeenth century. The Peace of Utrecht also, however, opened a phase in which the global context became increasingly dominant in European politics. The workshop aims to reassess the peace negotiations in a wider context of political and cultural history, exploring the effects and influences of an emerging public of printing press, of mutual perceptions, religious ideologies, semantics, image making and representations on diplomacy and politics in an closer growing web of global intertwinings.
