research
- By investigating global dis:connections, we are inaugurating a new field of research. It emphasises the role of delays and detours, of interruptions and resistances, of the active absence of connections in global contexts and investigates their social significance.

fellows
- The cornerstone of global dis:connect is the fellowship programme, in which approximately ten scholars come to Munich each year. They research dis:connectivity on site and in close contact with the directors and their peers. Fellows also have the opportunity to host workshops on the topics of their research.

24-25 March, Global Asias: Syndromes and a Century

‘What will have been?’ ‘What was?’ ‘What could still be?’: This workshop asks what research on ‘Asia’ can tell us about the current global conjuncture as well as about the past and the future. It draws into conversation scholars and artists working across Asias that span European locations, west Asia, northern Thailand, Sinophone locations, Japan, the USA, and the digital sphere. Featuring new work in sociology, history, film studies, literature, performance studies and anthropology, the workshop debates the syndromes of our century.
