Meditations on the Sea and its African Subjects, and the Complexities of European Nationalism
In this presentation, I engage with the African body that lands on European beaches via the Mediterranean sea, dead by exhaustion from crossing the ocean or dead as a consequence of boarding a vessel, which has capsized because it was not equipped to carry the embodied subject identities of Africans leaving the continent to seek refuge on the European continent: the continent of the European coloniser who had usurped African land and people, kidnapped African labour starting in the fifteenth century whilst simultaneously exploiting and extracting raw materials to develop its wealth in an ailing, starving, and disease infested Europe.

Workshop #1 – Data as/in Contradictions: Research, Practices, Politics (Postdoc Intro)
Drawing on the research projects of the postdoctoral Fellows of the RTG 2686, this three-part workshop invites our doctoral researchers to collectively reflect on the intersections between data and contradictions. We will explore how data is both shaped by political, social, and epistemic contradictions and, in turn, actively shapes these contradictions.

Diskurs interdisziplinär 12. Discourses in/of Disruption
Das Tagungsnetzwerk „Diskurs – interdisziplinär“ bietet ein Forum, auf dem Vertreter*innen der Linguistik, der Soziologie, Politologie, Philosophie, Literaturwissenschaft, Geschichtswissenschaft und anderer kulturanalytisch arbeitender Wissenschaften die Perspektive ‚Diskurs‘ je fachspezifisch und fachübergreifend, disziplinär und interdisziplinär, reflektieren und diskutieren. Diese Idee setzt voraus, dass eine zentrale die Kulturwissenschaften verbindende Aufgabe in der Beschreibung und Erklärung der Bedeutung von Diskursen und ihrer Funktionen in der Gesellschaft besteht.

Concepts of Contradiction II
As members of the RTG Contradiction Studies we all work in the field of or with contradictions. But what does this concept mean? What does it mean to work with contradiction(s) as a concept, method or tool? How can we come together using contradiction(s)? In two sessions we invite the members of the RTG to discuss their understandings of contradiction(s). We want to enhance finding partners for collaboration who think in similar ways and think about interdisciplinarity as translation – how to translate?
