Welcome, Ulrike Lindner

In early September Elisabeth DeLoughrey joins global dis:connect as a new fellow. Welcome to Munich, Ulrike!

Ulrike Lindner is a professor of modern history at the University of Cologne. Her research interests lie in comparative, colonial and global history.

During her fellowship at global dis:connect, she will explore why the topic has received less attention than the dominant migration narratives of the 19th and 20th century. Secondly, she will investigate the concrete agency of African migrant workers who tried to be deviant and to use ‘detours’ to resist their integration into the capitalist market economy of the new colonial rulers in Africa at the end of the 19th century.
