Marcia C. Schenck

As Professor of Global History at the University of Potsdam, I am committed to the study of Africa and Africans as an integral part of writing global history. My research interests include the history of migration and processes of refuge seeking, labor history, education history, oral and life history, African and global history and the history of international organizations.

I received my Ph.D. in history at Princeton University and hold an M.Sc. in African Studies from the University of Oxford.
