‘Back to normal’ is a basic human need in the aftermath of a crisis. It can be seen as an attempt to regain a seemingly lost normality by selected and controlled measures.
defined as trying to get back to a lost normality by applying selected, controlling actions.
However, a look at past crisis situations suggests that the previous status cannot simply be reconstructed. New sets of perceptions, structures and narratives of ‘normality’ come into existence, which leads to several questions: How did they develop? Who was involved in the decision-making process? And how influential and substantial were these changes?
All these topics will be in the focus of an online conference organized by the Institute for Franconian History (Thurnau) from October 19th to 20th 2020.

The conference aims to demonstrate lasting social, political, and economic changes caused by crises and to gather insight into perceptions of ‘normality’ over a wide range of periods and contexts. Additionally, we want to examine the spectrum of measures that have been tried – successfully or unsuccessfully – in the aftermath of crises.

Proposed contributions should focus on one or more of the following questions:

- How did narratives of ‘normality’ change by crises?
- To what extent did existing structures, activities and processes transform due to a crisis? How long did they last and how persistent have they been?
- In what way did crises expedite, inhibit, disrupt, or end processes already going on?
- What protagonists and what institutions participated in surmounting a crisis? Was there an evolution of new structures carrying responsibility?
- What circumstances laid the ground for actually defining a situation as a crisis? How did the awareness of being in a crisis establish?
- Did historic examples of rating and finally overcoming crises play a role?
- Can we even state regular patterns of establishing new normality?

On the first day, we will open up the topic on a transregional level without any specific local or chronological focus. Thus, topics from European and Non-European contexts are welcome (conference language will be English on that day). The second day will focus on case studies for the Franconian area (conference language will be German).

The Institute plans to publish the contributions in a digital format.

The 2019-2020 academic year has now come to a close and we believe it ended successfully, even exceeding expectations given the extraordinary disruption caused by COVID-19 pandemic. Our University has already responded to the coronavirus ensuring that no student has been educationally disadvantaged by the pandemic; students, faculty and staff worked diligently and creatively to ensure that teaching, learning and research occurred in ways consistent with standards and expectations of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. We are proud that Greece’s response to the coronavirus pandemic has so far been “a rare coronavirus success story” as the UK’s Financial Times has recently reported since Greece took early and drastic action. Moreover, we are strongly encouraged by the MIT’s optimistic forecast for the course of the epidemic in Greece, which according to its Delphi AI model, no particular increase in COVID 19 cases is expected in the summer, even without measures being taken. Neverthelss, we are ready in case contingency plans are ever again required, including options for studying remotely, which will be confirmed if they become necessary.
Thank you for your trust in us as you plan your future studies.
