Humanitarianism & Human Rights
Leibniz Institute of European History Mainz (IEG)
At present many young international scholars conduct research on their own which extends or differentiates the debate on the sources and trajectories of humanitarian norms and human rights. This blog gives them a forum to get closer in contact with each other, to articulate their ideas, to exchange information and knowledge, to present perspectives from different backgrounds, and to share the same interest on the history of humanitarianism and human rights.

It also highlights topical public contributions made by members in newspapers, blogs and other media outlets.
Leibniz Postdoc Network blog
While science and research during the Covid-19 pandemic have been in the spotlight like never before, we almost exclusively see PIs and professors whose voices are amplified and broadcasted while the essential work that early career researchers contribute to increase our knowledge mostly remains invisible to the public. The Leibniz Postdoc Network blog series highlights the work of postdocs who are or have been working on a pandemic-related topic in short form interviews.
New releases – tests and books from the field of psychological assessment
Leibniz Institute for Psychology (ZPID), Trier
This blog addresses newly published tests or books / monographs / (and soon) journal articles about tests and testing that are acquired by the ZPID. In other words, tests will show up here even before they are documented in the database segment PSYNDEX Tests. The advantage of this list is the fact that the tests included here have actually been published and are not merely announcements of future products in the publishers‘ catalogs.
