We are looking for a highly motivated PhD student who will be willing to explore the historical role of the IAEA in standardizing and regulating the use of nuclear energy in the Global South. The successful candidate is also expected to pay attention to the legal framework of radiation protection that the IAEA shaped and introduced in developing countries throughout the post WWII period. We are especially interested in those who could explore IAEA’s role in the development of nuclear law. Regions of interest are Africa and Latin America. Lees meer…

NWO kent een subsidie uit de Open Competitie toe aan het project Visualizing the Unknown in 17th-century Science and Society. In dit project reconstrueren onderzoekers van het Huygens ING, Max Planck Instituut en Rijksmuseum Boerhaave hoe zeventiende-eeuwse microscopisten hun baanbrekende ontdekkingen visueel vastlegden en deelden. Zoals de ‘spiky blob’-afbeelding van het corona-virus demonstreert, liep de visuele representatie ver voor op het vaststellen van de wetenschappelijke feiten.
Since the advent of film in the late nineteenth century, moving images have been integral to making and communicating science. A rich interdisciplinary literature has examined such representations of science in the cinema and on television and investigated how scientists have used moving images to conduct research and communicate knowledge.
Responding to growing interest in science and the moving image, this online workshop uses the concept of ‘intermediality’ as a starting point to discuss new approaches and methodologies. Intermediality, coined by media scholars to describe the interplay between different media, magnifies their multiple meanings and heterogenous interrelations. Moving images especially invite intermedial analysis because they are often composed of interrelated visuals, speech, music, and text; film can also be cut into stills for reproduction in newspapers, advertisements, and journals.

From its creation after World War II, UNESCO became a political battleground in which different visions of science and the world order fought for hegemony. As it is well known, Julian Huxley (1887-1975) and Joseph Needham (1900-1995) were the first General Director and the first Director of the Natural Sciences Division. Their administration stressed the “social implications of science” -through the influence of Bernalist Marxism- and the “periphery principle” in international relations. They also included science popularization in its priorities, but UNESCO’s popularization program would only start once the Cold War increased in intensity and Huxley and Needham’s policies were substituted by the leadership of the physicist Pierre Auger (1899-1993) as new head of the Natural Sciences Division.
The BSHS Conferences Committee now invites proposals for individual papers and for sessions from historians of science, technology and medicine, and from their colleagues in the wider scholarly community, on any theme, topic or period. Lees meer…
The Gordon Cain Conference 2021 focuses on the fascinating interplay of science, technology and international affairs after the Second World War. By doing so it marks the emergence of Diplomatic Studies of Science as a field at the intersection of Science and Technology Studies, History of Science, Diplomatic History, and International Politics. The Beckman Center for the History of Chemistry at the Science History Institute and the Gordon Cain Conference Fellow, Maria Rentetzi, invite contributions that explore the ways science and diplomacy have been co-produced throughout the second half of the 20th century reaching the present.
