EVENTS AND PROGRAMS
Integral to the Lepage Center's mission, the Lepage Center hosts a variety of events and workshops that explore timely topics through a historical lens.
ANNUAL EVENT SERIES
The Lepage Center presents an annual series of events tied to a timely theme of public interest. These virtual and in-person events bring together diverse voices in the humanities and social sciences to put contemporary issues in historical perspective.
2024 鈥� 2025 Series: Labor in Historical Perspective, and Democracy and Its Discontents
This year, the Lepage Center will have two main focuses: Labor in historical perspective will animate many of our discussions as well as our grant, but we will have an alternating series on "Democracy and Its Discontents" focusing on how representative government in the U.S. and across the world has changed over time.
The Labor in Historical Perspective series of panels and talks will examine several historical topics, including the migrant labor, labor and the carceral state, and labor organizing. The series on Democracy and Its Discontents has special relevance with elections in the U.S. and across the world.
