‘Beyond Borders’ invites applications from Ph.D. students worldwide studying borders and bordering phenomena in different regions of the world. The Call for Scholarship Applications 2022 is open till 1 March 2022 and focuses on “Borders, Migration and Knowledge.
‘Beyond Borders’ supports research about borders and boundaries in past and present times. It promotes interdisciplinary exchange in the social sciences and humanities. Both empirical research based on extensive fieldwork and projects centered on theoretical reflection are eligible for support. Innovative and challenging research questions as well as comparative approaches are highly welcome.
The migration of people is intimately connected to the migration of knowledge and culture.
However, strong international borders still define what is considered national literature, art, or history and which artists, writers, and thinkers from which parts of the world gain global recognition. We invite project applications that explore how national and international canons are produced and changed. Under what conditions do knowledge and culture circulate easily, and when are they blocked? What powers and interests are served when canons are defined? How do museums, universities, archives, and libraries change when traditional intellectual and cultural power centers are displaced or decentered?
