	„Wir werden auf Russisch ermordet.“ Plädoyer für eine involvierte Sprache	Thu, 17.11.2022	Lecture	Ludger Hagedorn Misha GlennyGeorg Witte	„Wir werden auf Russisch ermordet.“ Plädoyer für eine involvierte Sprache Thu, 17.11.2022 Speakers: Ludger Hagedorn Misha GlennyGeorg Witte Series: Lecture Der Ukrainekrieg hat den Osteuropadiskurs nachhaltig erschüttert. Nаchdem geokulturelle Konfrontationen des „Ostens“ und „Westens“ seit dem Ende des Kalten Kriegs fast schon erledigt schienen, beobachten wir derzeit ein bemerkenswertes Wiederaufleben der Block-Konfrontationen. Es stellen sich unerwartete Fragen: Wie ist ein Osten neu und wieder zu denken unter den Prämissen einer Dekolonisierung Russlands, gerade im Hinblick auf kulturelle und sprachliche Hegemonien? Kann die russische Kultur „bestraft“ werden (Oleksiy Radynski), und wenn ja, von wem und wie? Gewinnt der Westen eine neue historische Bedeutung ausgerechnet als antihegemoniale Projektionsfläche? Schließlich: Was heißt es vor diesem Hintergrund, unseren eigenen Diskurs zu dekolonisieren? Read more

	Greening Democracy	Tue, 18.10.2022	Lecture	John Keane Misha Glenny	Greening Democracy Tue, 18.10.2022 Speakers: John Keane Misha Glenny Series: Lecture The unparalleled greening of democracy during the past half-century extends well beyond such matters as sustainability and climate justice, and is far more consequential than the birth of green parties, policy disputes about carbon pricing schemes and global emissions targets, this lecture proposes. Suggesting a new way of thinking historically about the relationship among ecosystems, energy regimes and democracy, John Keane asked why people with green sympathies might be expected in our times to embrace democracy for more than tactical reasons.
