The workshop is intended to map out the intersections and crossovers between Gender History and Transnational and Global History, by taking a collective look at participants research projects. With the aim of engaging with the debates and approaches already trying to bring these fields into fruitful conversation, an open format for discussion will be created alongside having experts invited to comment on papers which deal with the following four matters:

1. Methodological and theoretical questions
2. Construction of categories of difference
3. Re(construction) of gender roles in global religions, spiritualism and traditional medicine
4. Breaking the silence in the archives
5. For more information see our call for papers on the BGSH website of the University of Basel.
