Kurzprofil der Einrichtung
"The Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) is a research centre of the highest academic excellence for the study, analysis and public dissemination of contemporary Luxembourgish and European history. It promotes an interdisciplinary approach with a particular focus on new digital methods and tools for historical research and teaching.
The interdisciplinary centre aims to perform as a key player in three interrelated fields of interest:
- 1. as a national platform for the critical discussion and academic study of questions related to the contemporary history of Luxembourg from transnational perspective;
- 2. as an international hub for reflection on the methodological and epistemological challenges of history in the digital age;
- 3. as a local mediator in the promotion of multimodal and digital literacy in academic research and teaching at the University of Luxembourg.
The centre therefore has a particular focus on the use of digital methods and tools for historical research and serves as a catalyst for innovative and creative scholarship and new forms of public dissemination and societal engagement with history in Luxembourg.
Research activities at the C²DH focus on three thematic areas — contemporary history of Luxembourg, European history and digital historiography — which are explored from a transnational and interdisciplinary perspective."
