In unserem Projekt Topographien der Globalisierung konzentrieren wir uns
auf die Darstellungsmöglichkeiten unterschiedlicher globaler Probleme in
der Literatur weltweit.
Das Hauptaugenmerk richtet sich zum ersten auf die ökonomischen
Grundlagen der menschlichen Existenz in Zeiten der Globalisierung und
die problematische Lage des Einzelnen in den neoliberalen Staaten, zum
zweiten auf die Frage der nationalen Identität im Zeitalter der
Globalisierung. Die Reflexion über ökonomische und politische Krisen und
deren Folgen wie Arbeitslosigkeit und Migration wird als wichtiger Teil des
Globalisierungsdiskurses gesehen.
Auch die Folgen des Klimawandels und der internationale Terrorismus
werden zunehmend als ein Realität gewordenes Katastrophenszenario
dargestellt. Diese komplexe Problematik wird vor dem Hintergrund der
literarischen Katastrophen- und Arbeitsdiskurse erläutert.
Das Projekt hat das Ziel, die Reflexion über globale Probleme in
unterschiedlichen Kulturkreisen zu vergleichen.
Projektleitung: Dr. Ewa Wojno-Owczarska
Das Projekt wurde registriert als ein Teil des Humboldt-Netzwerks
Our project Topographies of Globalization explores how different global
problems and issues are represented in international literature. The
globalized economic situation and how it effects human existence in
general as well as the individual within a neoliberal society forms one
main topic.
Another important topic is the (im)possibility of national identities in a
globalized world.
The discourse on globalization reflects such diverse topics as
unemployment and migration
as results of economic and political crisis, but also climate change and
international terrorism.
Our project seeks to show this complex problem area against the
background of literary discourses of disaster and labour, and thus compare
literary reflection on global issues in different cultures.
Leader of the project: Ewa Wojno-Owczarska, PhD.
The project has been registrated as a part of the Humboldt-Network
CFP City Discourses
and Spatial Concepts in (Central) Europe (deadline: 11.02.2019)
The aim of the project is to reflect on aspects of spatial concepts in the context of interdisciplinarity, to explore diverse local as well as global aspects of spatial concepts over Central Europe and to question them under the current challenges of the time.

THE PROJECT WAS FOUNDED
AS A PART OF THE CENTRAL NETWORK
In 2014 CENTRAL - the Central European Network for Teaching and Research in Academic Liaison - was launched by an agreement between the Humboldt University Berlin, Charles University Prague, University of Warsaw,
Eötvös Lorand University (ELTE) Budapest
and the University of Vienna.
The CENTRAL network strives to promote academic projects and events, to establish joint study programmes and to promote exchange in research, teaching and at the level of institutional management. The partner universities each have long and intensive bilateral links with one another. Due to their status as capital city universities, their history, geographic location and their similar profiles, the mentioned universities have joined forces in order to form a multilateral research and teaching network and to increase the academic standing of Central Europe. The focus of the network is the promotion of young researchers, strengthening of international research cooperation as well as collaboration and exchange at the level of management and administration at the partner institutions. CENTRAL is financed until 2019 by the DAAD "Strategic partnerships" funding programme and the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
