On Friday, 04.11.2022, the members of the research center Transformations of Political Violence (TraCe) met in Darmstadt for their second collaborative meeting. With the project running for more than six months, members of the research network met in order to coordinate further activities and jointly discuss content-related and organizational questions. While organizational issues were on the agenda first, there was plenty of room for the scientists to present the current progress of their research projects and to engage in discussions both in groups and plenary sessions. Beyond the formal part, the meeting also offered the opportunity for further discussions and networking between the different locations in the concluding get-together.
