Philipp Ther, Professor of History, University of Vienna, Winner of the 2019 Wittgenstein Prize will speak about his new book.

Professor Ther will discuss the long history of refugees in modern European history, and will reflect on how that history might shape our understanding of current crises of displacement, at a moment when the movement of labor migrants and refugees has become a deeply polarizing political preoccupation in contemporary Europe.
