3-5 Aug 22, Summer School “Postcolonial interruptions?”

From 3 to 5 August the Käte Hamburger Kolleg global dis:connect will hold its first annual interdisciplinary Summer School at the premises of the center. This year, we will focus on Postcolonial interruptions? Decolonisation and global dis:connectivity and explore how dynamics of decolonisation reordered processes of globalization. We will ask how geopolitical alliances, economic networks, and cultural as well as epistemological bonds were questioned and interrupted permanently or temporarily and at the same time existing connections were reshaped, and new ones appeared. The Centre invites scholars and artists in early stages of their careers to discuss related projects with experts. The courses will foster dialogue between various scholarly approaches and artistic research.
