<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Hope you had a good summer break and had a good start of the new season.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">With this email I would like to inform you about the state of affairs of the<i> Euromix Research Project. Regulation of mixed relationships, intimacy and marriage in Europe.</i> Starting in 2017, this year the project
has now finally come to a close.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Before the summer, the three PhDs </span>

</span><span lang="EN-GB">have finalised their projects. Their wonderful dissertations have been published open access and can be read if you click on their names.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Next to these three PhDs, several articles came out of the project, published by the PhDs, the postdocs Elena Zambelli and Guno Jones and myself. Please check our
</span><a href="http://euromixproject.nl/"><span lang="EN-GB">Euromix website</span></a><span lang="EN-GB"> for references as well as information on other activities and our blogs (including some nice pictures of the defences).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Although a lot has already been accomplished, we are not entirely finished yet.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We are still working on an edited book entitled
<i>Regulating Empire and Nation: Interracialised Intimacies in Europe and beyond</i>, with contributions from scholars from different geographical and disciplinary backgrounds (including some of you). The book is edited by Elena Zambelli and myself and publication
of this book is planned for 2024. We intend to organize a festive book launch as a final conclusion of the Euromix project and will send an invite to this list. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Although the Euromix project is finished, our
</span><a href="https://listserver.vu.nl/mailman/listinfo/euromixproject.rch"><span lang="EN-GB">e-mailing list</span></a><span lang="EN-GB"> is still up and running for those who want to remain in contact with others interested in research regarding interracialised
intimacies/‘mixed’ couples and families in Europe and beyond. We hope it can continue to function as a community of researchers interested in this topic. Please don’t hesitate to send your publications, cfp and other interesting news and announcements!
