Every year the Remarque Institute hosts an international
seminar for young historians and social scientists. These meetings bring
together, by invitation, a small number of scholars from the United States, Europe
and elsewhere for an extended informal conversation around a defined
topic or field. There are no formal presentations and no prepared paper or
publication is expected. The seminar, which lasts four days and takes place in
a mountain retreat in Kandersteg, Switzerland, offers younger scholars a chance
to meet and get to know people in their field – especially those working in
other countries – and offers them an opportunity to present and discuss their
work in an international context.
