Premio AISA “Jean-François Bergier” per ricerche sulla Storia delle Alpi (2024)

Il Prix Bergier è promosso e attribuito dall’Associazione Internazionale per la Storia delle Alpi (AISA), in memoria di Jean-François Bergier, studioso promotore e cofondatore dell’Associazione. Il Prix Bergier è conferito a cadenza biennale e ha lo scopo di promuovere la ricerca sulla storia delle Alpi - e più in generale delle aree montane europee - da parte di giovani studiose e studiosi.

Il Prix Bergier viene conferito a tesi di dottorato, aventi come oggetto centrale l’area alpina e prealpina o altre realtà montane europee. Queste devono riguardare la Storia medievale, moderna o contemporanea, declinata in uno dei suoi indirizzi tematici (sociale, economica, culturale, demografica, ambientale, tecnica, ecc.), oppure le discipline contigue, ma limitatamente all’antropologia e alla geografia storiche e all’archeologia medievale e moderna.
