> Course description
>
> The course examines the transformation of identities in the former
> socialist region in the wake of the transition from state-controlled
> cultures to those permeated by global multimedia practices. Issues of
> political and cultural representation, the role of different
> technologies in identity constitution and social control, historical
> legacies and aesthetic questions will be addressed as integral parts
> of the same problematic rather than as issues to be examined within
> particular disciplinary confines.
>
> Bringing together specific case studies and a multi-disciplinary
> theoretical apparatus, we ask how the post-socialist, globalizing
> order has produced needs and opportunities for creating new modes of
> transnational culture beyond the nation and its ethnic, sexual and
> religious exclusions. In addition, we will explore how the region's
> post-Soviet geopolitical reconstitution and the politics of the EU's
> enlargement have resulted in new migrations and diasporic formations
> and have solidified or contested actual and metaphorical borders
> within the new Europe. The course also provides an introduction to a
> range of research foci and methodologies related to globalization and
> the media across the disciplines in the humanities and social
> sciences, including cultural geography, history, comparative cultural
> studies, film and media studies, anthropology and sociology.
>
> We welcome advanced graduate students and researchers in the
> humanities and social sciences who intend to pursue comparative,
> interdisciplinary research on globalization, identities and the media
> with a geographical emphasis on the post-communist transitions,
> European integration, or the cultural and political role of the United
> States in current European economic, political and cultural
> transformations. We also intend to facilitate future networking and
> publish selected papers resulting from the course in a book collection
> and/or special issue of a journal.
