Contested Greek-German Pasts is an educational and research initiative for students and young scholars exploring the history and representation of relations between Greece and Germany. Through essays, historical analysis, and curated topic sections, the project examines how past events shape public debate, collective memory, and perceptions of the two countries. Its coverage spans Bavarian rule in nineteenth-century Greece, German occupation during the Second World War, Greek migration to Germany, and the rise of right-wing political discourse.

It also investigates how Greek and German media have portrayed each other, including coverage of the Greek debt crisis and the political use of historical symbols. The initiative brings together work by authors in history and related fields, offering resources such as introductory texts, focused studies, a project overview, author information, and a timeline. By tracing the origins and changing uses of stereotypes, Contested Greek-German Pasts encourages readers to approach simplified narratives critically and to better understand the complex, often painful history underlying contemporary relations
