This two-day conference brings together scholars from across sub-fields to discuss identity in the European context. It will focus on the development, transformation, transmission, expression, and politicization of three types of identity – subnational, national, and European – and how these identities overlap with each other. Panels will address these themes as they relate to these three identities. As an interdisiciplinary conference, participants are drawn from across the humanities, social sciences, and professional fields and come from across the disciplines at Pitt, other universities in the region, universities in the US and in Europe. As Europe is currently beset by a number of crises – economic, social, political – the question of identity is central to understanding how individual Europeans perceive and are impacted by these crises. We hope to address many of these issues at this multidisciplinary conference.
