3 Nov 21, Roundtable on Disconnection and (institutional) cooperation in Global History

the centre
- The global dis:connect research centre, which is sponsored by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, examines the dynamic, co-constitutive relationship of global integration, absent connections and disintegration in current and historical processes of globalisation.
- the centre
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.

3 Nov 21, Roundtable on Disconnection and (institutional) cooperation in Global History

On Wednesday, 3 November 2021, researchers from Edinburgh and Munich came together in an online roundtable on ‘Disconnection and (institutional) cooperation in Global History’. The roundtable considered how the concept of ‘disconnect’ could be useful for thinking about the research agenda of global history and its relationship to the present – and how to counter ‚disconnect‘ at an institutional level.

Speakers were: Christina Brauner (Tübingen/Munich), Jeremy Dell, Meha Priyadarshini (both Edinburgh) and Roland Wenzlhuemer (Munich). The event was chaired by Ismay Milford (Edinburgh).
