Announcement follows:



The enlargement of the European Union in 2004 changed the shape of the EU
and the continent. External borders were shifted, internal borders were
dissolved, old borders re-emerged, and new borders were established. It is
becoming clear that these processes are influenced not only by political
and economic factors, but to a large extent by basic cultural, historic
and social conditions as well. Analysis of all these areas leads to a
better understanding of Europe as a space characterised by complex
processes of establishing and transcending borders. Such analysis is
therefore of fundamental importance for shaping the continent for the
future.

Against the backdrop of this complex challenge, the German Association for
East European Studies (DGO) is hosting a European Congress under the title
"Transcending Europe’s Borders: The EU and Its Neighbours", August 2–4,
2007, in Berlin. The congress is to build on the success of the ICCEES VII
World Congress, which took place in Berlin in summer 2005. The congress is
to serve as the prelude to a series of international conferences that will
be held every two to three years to address issues concerning the shaping
of Europe’s future from the perspective of all relevant disciplines. The
congress will provide a forum for representatives from the fields of Law,
History, Political Science, Cultural Studies, Economics, Slavic Studies,
Geography, Sociology, Religious Studies and other associated disciplines.
The goal of the congress is to promote international interdisciplinary
collaboration in researching European integration as well as Europe and
Eastern Europe, fields of
 study that have to this point co-existed more or less separately.

Contributions to the congress may address topics along the lines of the
following examples:


historic, cultural and legal conditions for the transformation processes;

the relationship between borders, nation-state and regional society in the
19th and 20th centuries;

"mental maps" and greater regions in history;

establishing and transcending cultural and historical borders;

the role of literature and art in the perception and transformation of
reality in Europe;

cultural processing of social and intellectual upheaval;

EU relations with its post-Soviet neighbours in the east and
post-communist neighbours in the south as well as problems associated with
Europeanisation and external governance;

political, social and economic transformations since the dissolution of
Cold War political and military blocs, i.e. bloc borders, in Europe;

social and economic transformation in old and new border regions;

perspectives for shaping Europe.
