Belonging in Transition
Anna Adorjáni is a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Augsburg. Her research specializes in the intellectual and social history of the late Habsburg Empire, with a particular focus on Hungary.
During her time at the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies (CES), Adorjáni will develop a monograph that aims to trace how discourses and practices of belonging evolved during the turbulent shift from empire to nation-states. This project draws primarily on case studies from Hungary between 1848 and 1919 and is based on Adorjáni’s dissertation “Interpreting Non-Territorial Autonomy in Late Habsburg Hungary (1848–1918),” which was awarded the Austrian State Prize in 2024.
Adorjáni completed her Ph.D. at the University of Vienna’s department of East European history.
