Call For Papers

The University of Bucharest, in partnership with the Romanian Academy, organizes an international scientific conference on “The Bolshevik danger in Central Europe in 1919” on October 24-26, 2019.
The purpose of this conference is to provide interested scholars with a platform for discussing the perception of Bolshevism as a major risk factor in Central Europe, especially, but not limited to, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Poland, the Baltic States, and Romania, after the end of the First World War.
We propose the following topics, while also allowing the participants to put forward other subjects related to the prospects of Bolshevik danger in 1919:
1. The perception and attitude of the Allied Powers at the Paris Peace Conference on the Bolshevik threat.
2. Public perceptions and historiographical myths regarding the Bolshevik movement of 1919.
3. Bolshevik propaganda in Central Europe.
4. Propaganda against Bolshevism.
5. The Bolshevik republics of Munich and Budapest between social aspirations and national frustrations.
6. The military campaigns of Czechoslovakia and Romania against the Hungarian Soviet Republic.
7. Romanian, Polish and Baltics’ military confrontations with Soviet Russia.
8. The role of the military interventions of the Entente against Russia in forming the public imaginary about the Bolshevik danger.
9. The public violence of the Bolsheviks and anti-Bolsheviks.
10. International public law and humanitarian law in political and military actions against the Bolsheviks.

Deadline: 30.06.2019
