Lisbeth Matzer joined the chair of Modern History at the LMU in late 2020 as assistant professor. Before that she pursued her PhD as MSCA-fellow in the “EUmanties” program at the a.r.t.e.s. Graduate School for the Humanities Cologne (Horizon 2020: MSCA grant No. 713600). She also held positions as lecturer in History of Education at the Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg (Summer term 2020) or the Department of Education at the University of Graz (Winter term 2016–2017) and worked as research assistant at the Department of History (Contemporary History, 2016–2017) and the Department of Economic, Social and Business History (2014–2016) at the University of Graz. She studied and obtained her MA degrees in history (2016) and continuing education/adult education (2015) at the University of Graz.

Her interests in research and teaching lie in social and cultural histories of Europe from the 19th to 21st century. She especially focuses on histories of European integration, consumption, borderlands, childhood and youth, inequalities and participation, memory and remembrance as well as of authoritarianism, fascism and National Socialism. In her second book project Lisbeth Matzer uses the example of wine and its production, distribution and consumption to develop a product history of European integration since around 1950.

Her PhD thesis on the Nazi mobilization of youth in occupational and borderland settings was awarded with the Herbert-Steiner-Preis in 2020 (published with Schöningh 2021).
