Call for Papers: Unpacking the Bloc: Circulation of Knowledge, Resources and Practices in Eastern Europe and Beyond. St. Petersburg (hybrid), April 22-23, 2022
Recent scholarship has clearly demonstrated that the Socialist bloc was a more complex formation than merely a set of interests determined by the Soviet Union. Socialist countries were not identical in their political and economic structures, nor in their levels of technological advancement. They thus made up a heterogenous bloc. Yet the ideological rationale of socialist cooperation and integration insisted on a collective effort to enhance progress and forge an alternative to Western rivals. The Socialist bloc was particularly intertwined with diverse economic, technological, scientific and cultural communications. These included both official and intangible connections between individuals and institutes as part of trading, technology transfer, material and cultural exchanges, scientific and environmental collaboration, among other activities.
We invite the submission of individual papers to discuss the implicit mechanisms and dynamics of intra-bloc communication in terms of diversity and complexity rather than unity. We also seek contributions which consider socialist countries in terms of their global connections. We are particularly interested in discussing various forms of connection within the bloc and beyond, including transfers of knowledge, technologies, and resources, as well as numerous practices embedded in cultural, scientific and environmental exchanges, among many others.
What was the role of hidden institutions and connections in integrating state socialism? What informal connections existed between actors at different levels, such as experts and officials, managers of enterprises and leaders of scientific organizations? What were some of the global intangible connections of the bloc and how did they change over time? We especially invite contributions on marginal aspects of Comecon’s history, such as economic mechanisms of integration, hidden political impacts, cultural exchange, technology transfers, and environmental cooperation.
The workshop will be held in a hybrid form. We invite both online and on site presentations to take place at the HSE University in St. Petersburg.
The organizers will provide meals for the on site participants.

Piotr Puchalski: Poland in a Colonial World Order. Adjustments and Aspirations, 1918–1939. New York: Routledge 2022. ISBN 9780367674700
Poland in a Colonial World Order is a study of the interwar Polish state and empire building project in a changing world of empires, nation-states, dominions, protectorates, mandates, and colonies.
Drawing from a wide range of sources spanning two continents and five countries, Piotr Puchalski examines how Polish elites looked to expansion in South America and Africa as a solution to both real problems, such as industrial backwardness, and perceived issues, such as the supposed overrepresentation of Jews in "liberal professions." He charts how, in partnership with other European powers and international institutions such as the League of Nations, Polish leaders made attempts to channel emigration to South America, to establish direct trade with Africa, to expedite national minorities to far-away places, and to tap into colonial resources around the globe. Puchalski demonstrates the intersection between such national policies and larger processes taking place at the time, including the internationalist turn of colonialism and the global fascination with technocratic solutions.
Carefully researched, the volume is key reading for scholars and advanced students of twentieth-century European history.
