This is the first of four annual conferences in the series Graduate Conferences in European History (GRACEH), organized by Central European University, Budapest (History Department; Department of Medieval Studies), the European University Institute, Florence (Department of History and Civilization) and the Berliner Kolleg für Vergleichende Geschichte Europas, Berlin and the European Review of History/Revue européenne d’histoire, a refereed journal published by Routledge, which has also expressed an interest in publishing some of the best papers to emerge from GRACEH.
