Research project:

The ERC project "Non-Territorial Autonomy as Minority Protection in Europe. An Intellectual and Political History of a Travelling Idea, 1850–2000" (2018-2023) investigates non-territorial forms of organising national diversity, as they were conceived in the Habsburg Empire and further developed in Central and Eastern Europe in the interwar period. This collective rights approach grants cultural rights to a minority as a group without creating separate national territories.
