Policy advice and best practices on bias and fairness in AI
The literature addressing bias and fairness in AI models ( fair-AI ) is growing at a fast pace, making it difficult for novel researchers and practitioners to have a bird’s-eye view picture of the field. In particular, many policy initiatives, standards, and best practices in fair-AI have been proposed for setting principles, procedures, and knowledge bases to guide and operationalize the management of bias and fairness. The first objective of th…
The dark side of connectedness
Through a re-reading of the historiography of the late Ottoman and Tsarist empires, this article repositions the extermination of Ottoman Armenians during the First World War into the connected history of the trans-imperial region around the Black Sea since the Crimean War. It argues that the connection between episodes of violence against civilians and forced migrations in the Pontic rim is essential to properly understand late-Ottoman extermina…
Beyond genocide and ethnic cleansing
This article argues that while ethnic cleansing and genocide are generally recognized as major features of modern history, pitfalls inherent in both concepts make them seriously deficient for purposes of historical understanding, especially because of the legal nature (and relevance) of the term genocide. Both terms carry the risk of accounting only for a part (albeit a major one) of a larger history of mass violence and, by over-emphasizing this…
Eugene Kulischer, Joseph Schechtman and the Historiography of European Forced Migrations
This article deals with two prominent figures in the historiography of twentieth-century European forced migrations: Eugene Kulischer and Joseph Schechtman. Their studies, although published between 1946 and 1962, are still among the standard works on the subject and are as yet unsurpassed in their scope and breadth of outlook, despite the flurry of new publications on the subject after the opening of East Central European archives after 1989. In…
Due libri sulla Shoah in Ucraina
This review article is dedicated to two recent books on the Shoah in Ukraine: Omer Bartov’s Erased: Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia in Present-Day Ukraine, Princeton University Press, Princeton 2007 and Patrick Desbois, Porteur de mémoires. Sur le traces de la Shoah par balles, Lafon, Neuilly-sur-Seine 2007. The fi rst, an illustrated travelogue of Bartov’s two research trips in Western Ukraine, sketches a history of the genocide of Galician J…
