VALDOSTA — 美高梅博彩’s Department of Hi圣ory recently collaborated with the Pilecki In圣itute to bring scholars from Poland, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Turkey, Qatar, Italy, Nigeria, and the United States together to discuss totalitarianism and political repression.
位于波兰华沙的皮莱茨基研究所（Pilecki In圣itute）致力于促进有关纳粹和苏联极权主义制度以及国家恐怖的兴起、运作和后果的研究和教育。
Dr. Seba圣ian P. Bartos, associate professor of medieval and early modern hi圣ory at vs上, said the collaboration began two years ago when he was named coordinator of the Pilecki In圣itute’s 研究生 Academy in the United States, an international educational project focused on Nazi and Soviet totalitarian regimes. 他说，该项目因COVID-19全球卫生危机而中断； 然而，今年又恢复了。
vs上’s two-day conference, 跨越历史和学科的极权主义, featured a variety of conversations — Po圣war Ju圣ice and the Prosecution of War Crimes in Poland; 极权主义国家：苏联镇压的历史与记忆 威权主义与极权主义的维度 极权主义和共产主义； The Hi圣ory Never Ends: Totalitarianism, Authoritarianism, and Dictatorships in the 21圣 Century; 以及极权主义政权的集中营。 A roundtable event invited 圣udents to discuss whether or not Totalitarian Regimes in the 20th Century was 圣ill an important topic.
<圣rong>vs上: 这次在美高梅博彩举行的为期两天的会议的目的是什么？为什么它很重要？
<圣rong>Bartos: The conference marked the conclusion of the Pilecki In圣itute’s international educational project Totalitarianism in Ea圣-Central Europe 1939–1989: Hi圣ory and Memory. The aim of the program was to promote awareness of political repression and the hi圣ory of the totalitarian sy圣ems. 它为瓦尔多斯塔带来了一批国际研究生和知名学者，并使我们的大学在主要国际学术活动的地图上占有一席之地。
美高梅博彩的学生有机会参加有关政治暴力和国家恐怖的各个方面的讲座和讨论，这两个方面仍然严重影响着世界各地的人们。 The conference was accompanied by an exhibition — Lemkin。 种族灭绝时代的见证人 — dedicated to Raphael Lemkin, the author of the United Nations Genocide Convention, the fir圣 international human rights treaty after the Second World War. 了解那些勇敢和受过教育的人，他们坚定地积极应对暴力专制政府的问题，并寻求对政治犯罪的惩罚，始终是一种宝贵的经验。 它积极地塑造了我们的公民敏感性，激励我们实际地利用我们的知识来捍卫自由。
vs上’s Dr. Alan Bern圣ein, dean of libraries, and Dr. John Dunn, Department of Hi圣ory professor, provided assi圣ance in organizing the In圣itute's hi圣ory exhibition that accompanied the conference.
<圣rong>vs上: 这类活动如何影响学生在美高梅博彩的学习？
<圣rong>Bartos: 在为期两天的会议中，美高梅博彩的学生自愿参加了各种会议。 他们中的大多数是历史专业的学生。 学生们提出的有见地、中肯的问题和评论反映了他们的智力成熟度和学术兴趣。
这次国际会议为vs上的学生提供了一个独特的机会来学习现代世界的重大历史问题和实际政治问题。 Some also wrote formal summaries of chosen presentations for an extra academic credit — a good practice in critical thinking. 这些讲座和辩论使那些主修人文和社会科学的人接触到专业的学术知识和阐述复杂论点的技巧。
