Тема: Speleology in Authoritarian Regimes - Online Symposium, Deadline for Abstracts November 15

Dear friends of caves and karst,
the UIS History of Speleology Commission, in collaboration with the
German Speleological Federation (VdHK), is organizing an online
symposium titled "Speleology in Authoritarian Regimes". This event will
explore the intersection of speleology (the study of caves and karst)
and repressive government regimes, examining how authoritarian states
have influenced and, in many cases, oppressed speleological activities
and researchers.
This symposium is inspired by the legacy of Dr. Benno Wolf (1871-1943),
a pioneering German speleologist whose life tragically ended due to the
atrocities committed by the Nazi regime.
The first circular is attached. Deadline for submissions has been
extended to November 15
Please share this information.

Thank you very much,
best speleo regards from Germany
Baerbel
