IAS Common Ground (Room G11 South Wing)
Remembering the past and migration abroad have both for centuries been fundamental to the identity of Poland. Today, they remain acutely significant - the first to politicians, the second to ordinary citizens. The workshop will be an opportunity to discuss research in progress which addresses both themes, as well as how they intertwine.
