Its research profile reflects the mission entrusted to the University of Luxembourg: producing new knowledge about the contemporary history of Luxembourg by studying phenomena and processes that have profoundly affected the country and whose transnational and comparative value exceeds the national perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the core of current research projects are the history of the Second World War, colonial history and social history (welfare, inequality, labour history). Currently composed of 28 researchers, mostly PhD students and postdoctoral researchers, the LHI research group gathers regularly by means of team meetings, an annual retreat, and a research seminar. Researchers of LHI were also actively involved in the struggle for better research conditions &#8211; especially through their engagement in favour of a revision of the Luxembourgish archival law from 2018.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-free-section section\"><div class=\"container xl:max-w-screen-xl\"><section class=\"section  wp-block-unilux-blocks-content-card-full-width py-0\">\n    <div class=\"container 2xl:max-w-screen-2xl\">\n        <div class=\"max-w-11\/12\">\n            <div class=\"content-card content-card--right content-card__overlay--hidden wp-block-unilux-blocks-content-card\">\n    \n<h2 class=\"content-card__heading has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"research-funded-by-science-funds\"\n    >\nResearch funded by science funds<\/h2>\n<div class=\"content-card__visual wp-block-unilux-blocks-content-card-visual-area\">\n    \n<section class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-image-video-wrapper\">\n    <figure class=\"wp-block-dev4-reusable-blocks-image  object-fit--cover\">\n    \n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-image unilux-custom-image-block\"\n                alt=\"Feldpost WW2\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Feldpost-warlux-website-4_3.jpg\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Feldpost-warlux-website-4_3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Feldpost-warlux-website-4_3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Feldpost-warlux-website-4_3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Feldpost-warlux-website-4_3.jpg 1500w\"\n                style=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%; font-family: &quot;object-fit: cover; object-position: 50.00% 50.00%;&quot;; aspect-ratio: 3\/2; object-fit: cover; width: 100%;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n\/>    <\/figure><\/section>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper content-card__overlay\">\n<a class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-highlight-rounded bottom-left\" \n    href=\"#\"\n    target=\"_self\"\n>\n    \n<span class=\"btn-highlight-rounded__name wp-block-unilux-blocks-plain-text\"><\/span>    <span class=\"icon-rounded\">\n        <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-right icon--lg\"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-right\"><\/use><\/svg>    <\/span>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"content-card__body  wp-block-unilux-blocks-content-card-free-area\">\n    \n<p>LHI members are successful in attracting competitive funding provided by science funds.

Whereas Arnaud Sauer finished his study on migrant foreign laborers in the Minett during the interwar period, Nicolas Arendt continues to investigate the transformation of ARBED 1973-2001 through a transnational lens. Within the FNR funded project \u2018Soldiers and their communities in WWII: The impact and legacy of war experiences in Luxembourg\u2019, Sarah Maya Vercruysse continues to research the experiences of the families of Luxembourgish Wehrmacht soldiers. As part of the DFG-FNR funded Research Unit on the history of popular culture in the long 1960s, V\u00e9ronique Faber unravels the past of the Luxembourg Funfair Schueberfouer, among others through interviewing and participant observation (<a href=\"https:\/\/popkult60.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/popkult60.eu\/<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-free-section section\"><div class=\"container xl:max-w-screen-xl\"><section class=\"section  wp-block-unilux-blocks-content-card-full-width py-0\">\n    <div class=\"container 2xl:max-w-screen-2xl\">\n        <div class=\"max-w-11\/12\">\n            <div class=\"content-card content-card--right content-card__overlay--hidden wp-block-unilux-blocks-content-card\">\n    \n<h2 class=\"content-card__heading has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"research-commissioned-by-luxembourgish-public-and-private-stakeholders\"\n    >\nResearch commissioned by Luxembourgish public and private stakeholders<\/h2>\n<div class=\"content-card__visual wp-block-unilux-blocks-content-card-visual-area\">\n    \n<section class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-image-video-wrapper\">\n    <figure class=\"wp-block-dev4-reusable-blocks-image  object-fit--cover\">\n    \n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-image unilux-custom-image-block\"\n                alt=\"Digital Shoah Memorial Luxembourg\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Memorial-digital-shoah-4_3.jpg\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Memorial-digital-shoah-4_3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Memorial-digital-shoah-4_3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Memorial-digital-shoah-4_3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/Memorial-digital-shoah-4_3.jpg 1299w\"\n                style=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%; font-family: &quot;object-fit: cover; object-position: 50.00% 50.00%;&quot;; aspect-ratio: 3\/2; object-fit: cover; width: 100%;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n\/>    <\/figure><\/section>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper content-card__overlay\">\n<a class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-highlight-rounded bottom-left\" \n    href=\"#\"\n    target=\"_self\"\n>\n    \n<span class=\"btn-highlight-rounded__name wp-block-unilux-blocks-plain-text\"><\/span>    <span class=\"icon-rounded\">\n        <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-right icon--lg\"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-right\"><\/use><\/svg>    <\/span>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"content-card__body  wp-block-unilux-blocks-content-card-free-area\">\n    \n<p>In 2023, the LHI research group continued to carry out research on the request of Luxembourgish public and private stakeholders. The societal interest in the history of the Second World War is reflected in a significant number of projects: research on Soviet Forced Labourers in Luxembourg conducted by Inna Ganschow, as well as provenance research of Jewish property in the Villa Vauban, the National Library of Luxembourg and the National Museum of History and Art commissioned by the Luxembourgish state based on article 5 of its agreement with the Israeli Consistory in Luxembourg (under the supervision of Andreas Fickers). The digital Shoah memorial project gathers information about the individual trajectories of the about 5.000 people who were considered by Nazis as Jews based on the Nuremberg Race Laws passed in 1935, lived in the Grand Duchy before the German invasion on May 10, 1940 and were persecuted. In 2023, more than 50 family biographies were written by around 20 different authors and added to&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.memorialshoah.lu.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.memorialshoah.lu.<\/a> Visitors may now contribute to the Memorial by adding a pebble to commemorate the biography of a person or a family on the new starting page designed as an endless landscape.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>Following the successful launch of a C\u00b2DH-created virtual exhibition on the First World War in Luxembourg, Christoph Br\u00fcll leads a project developing a virtual exhibition of the Second World War in Luxembourg. Through conducting research on the colonial and post-colonial history of Luxembourg and the role of actors in the colonisation of Africa, the LHI axis contributes to an ongoing debate in Luxembourgish society. Two postdoctoral researchers received access to the archives of respectively the Chambre of Employees (Estelle Berthereau) and the Luxembourg Inspectorate of Labour and Mines (Sam Klein) and prepare institutional histories. A collaboration with the City of Dudelange enabled us to scan 23 000 old residents\u2019 cards.
