As a result, crucial developments elsewhere have been overlooked, including in the Nordic countries as well as the Soviet Union and the various states of the Eastern bloc. The consequence of this omission is not merely a lack of knowledge about specific countries and a skewed understanding of digital history\u2019s manifold early trajectories. It also creates epistemological blind spots regarding the political dimensions of the development of early historical computing and, given the latter\u2019s networked nature within a general context of \u2018East-West\u2019 scholarly exchange in the Cold War period, obscures the transnational dimensions of the early history of digital history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This workshop will address these blind spots by focusing attention on the question of how the local and the transnational intersected in the technology-inflected reshaping of historical research practices and how political backgrounds, contexts and constraints fed into this process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The full program will be announced on this page by late September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The workshop is jointly organised by Gerben Zaagsma (University of Luxembourg), Marek Tamm (Tallinn University), Julianne Nyhan (Technische Universit\u00e4t Darmstadt and University College London), Petri Paju (University of Turku), Sune Bechmann Pedersen (Stockholm University) and Nadezhda Povroznik (Technische Universit\u00e4t Darmstadt).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-spacer is-spacer-size-sm\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h2
