The two-day international conference will follow an open discussion on the mentioned historical facts related to two central themes of the international and intercontinental dimension. Modern world has undoubtedly experienced unprecedented forcible migrations of ethnic groups accompanied with mass violence.
The conference will attempt to give an answer to the following questions:
Why did it happen and what was the purpose? Were border massacres only accidental or did they serve to advance of systematic mass killing with their frequency? Do we know all facts about resettlements and annihilation of populations between the 18th and 20th century? Do we know the true reasons, forms and instruments of this action? Should we try and answer the question to what extent discussions on forceful migration of populations have been conducted so far? And how did they affect discussions on the essence of nationalism and international unity? Etc.
The main purpose of the conference is a historical analysis of the issues.
