Über diesen Titel

 Peace and conflict studies is a burgeoning field. Yet, it still needs to tackle the legacies of colonialism and its hierarchies; the historical trajectories of conflicts and their embeddedness in global entanglements. In the six episodes of the podcast, we question dominant narratives in dialogue with a diversity of voices within and beyond academia and critically engage with theories and research practices. Join us in our journey of confronting hierarchies.Arnold Bergstraesser Institute / Postcolonial Hierarchies Project Sozialwissenschaften Wissenschaft

    Episode 5 - Postcolonial Europes.
    Apr 22 2025
    Episode 5 is an invitation to shift the gaze and think about Europe as a postcolonial space. Together with Miguel Cardina and Gerlov van Engelenhoven, we delve into the implications that colonialism has had (and continues to have) on Europe’s identities and current realities, as well as contestations thereof. We also address the issue of (post)colonial memory, exploring both its meaning and its relevance for what is commonly assumed to make Europe “Europe”.Bios: Miguel Cardina is a historian and a researcher at the Centre for Social Studies of the University of Coimbra, Portugal. He was an European Research Council (ERC) Grantee - project: «CROME - Crossed Memories, Politics of Silence. The Colonial-Liberation Wars in Postcolonial Times» (2017-2023). He is the author or co-author of several books, book chapters or papers on colonialism, anticolonialism and the colonial wars; political ideologies in the sixties and seventies; and the dynamics between history and memory. Gerlov van Engelenhoven is an assistant professor at Leiden University Centre for the Arts in Society (LUCAS). His research concerns postcolonial memory and heritage, law and culture, and cultural interaction. He also teaches various courses on these topics. His research methodology combines participatory research with discourse analysis and (auto)ethnography.Further Information & Readings:12:00 Postcolonial Memory-Cultural/Collective Memory StudiesTalk by Sakiru AdebayoPostcolonial Memory – Frankfurt Memory Studies Platformalso see below: Book by Gerlov 16:00 Former Holocaust Transit Camps in the Netherlands being used as “Repatriation camps”: Repatriation Camp – Kamp Westerbork 20:00 Activism-removal Debate about the Jan Pieterszoon Statue in Hoorn.

  • Episode 3 - Reimagining the classroom. Postcolonial Feminism, Masculinities and Security in university settings.

    Episode 3 - Reimagining the classroom. Postcolonial Feminism, Masculinities and Security in university settings.
    Oct 11 2024
    In Episode 3, we will explore what it means to challenge (post)colonial hierarchies in the classroom together with Amya Agarwal and Swati Parashar. The classroom is a space which can serve to promote critical thinking, a space that not only provides the possibility of reimagining the fundamentals of academic disciplines but that also allows for critical students and radical scholarship to emerge and thrive. Bios: Amya Agarwal is a lecturer of International Relations at the University of Sheffield, UK. Prior to moving to the UK, she was a senior researcher at the Arnold Bergstraesser Institute, Freiburg, Germany (2021–2023) and a postdoctoral fellow in Duisburg, Germany (2019–2021). She received her PhD from the Department of Political Science, University of Delhi, India in 2017. In the past, she has held teaching positions in the University of Delhi, South Asian University, University of Freiburg and University College Freiburg. Amya's research lies at the intersection of gender, conflict and security. In particular, she studies and writes about masculinities, motherhood, art and aesthetics in times of violence and resistance. Swati Parashar is a Professor of Peace and Development at the School of Global Studies, Gothenburg University, Sweden. Her teaching and research have led to academic appointments and fellowships in India, Singapore, the UK, the US, Ireland, Australia, and Sweden. She has also taught at the University of Rwanda in Kigali and at the University of the West Indies in Kingston, Jamaica. Swati is a member of the Swedish Development Research Network and has served on the Scientific Advisory Board of SIDA. Her research interests include feminism, postcolonialism, research methodologies, gender-based violence, famines, and development in South Asia and East Africa. She has published numerous journal special issues, articles, policy papers, and popular media pieces. In 2025, she will be honored as the Distinguished Scholar of the Feminist Theory and Gender Studies Section at the ISA Convention in Chicago.
