DESCRIPTION:American concepts in service of territorial revision in interw
 ar Hungarian geography: Knowledge flows inside the global academic semiper
 iphery\nThe lecture will focus on the case of Hungary after World War I an
 d especially the 1920 Treaty of Trianon. The international “journey” o
 f cartographic and statistical methods U.S. geographers introduced in the 
 1910s and 1920s to measure the “cultural level” of various nations and
  Hungarian geographers adopted to justify Hungarian elites’ territorial 
 claims and revisionary attempts will be presented. Employing this story as
  a case study\, the aim is to illuminate the mobility of scientific concep
 ts between what were both semi-peripheral countries in the global power ge
 ometries of science\, the academic and political interests behind this mob
 ility\, and the role the different geopolitical motivations and scholarly 
 traditions in both countries played in the significant adjustment of the o
 riginal concepts during their mobility.
