The transformation of social and political concepts is central to understanding the histories of societies. The European Conceptual History Series at Berghahn Books focuses on the notable values and terminology that have developed throughout European history, exploring key concepts such as parliamentarianism, democracy, civilization, and liberalism to illuminate a vocabulary that has helped to shape the modern world. The event presents the first four books to appear in the series. The event is open to all interested.
