| Inhalt | This seminar course critically examines the complex dynamics of human displacement, focusing on the intricate relationships between violence, movement, and social identity. The course provides a rigorous academic exploration of how forced migration fundamentally transforms individual and collective experiences of space, community, and belonging. Likewise, we will consider the emotional, material, and symbolical elements central to belonging, asking what it means one feels “at home’ in a world that tends to be mobile and ever-changing. The objective of this course is thus to enrich our perspective on displacement as something which by nature goes beyond geography or geopolitics and engages with anthropological notions of home, identity, and communality. Among the topics of the research are the role of materiality, religion, and memory in experiencing dislocation and also the temporal and spatial dimensions of the migration itself. Topics such as settler colonialism, the creation of "home" in exile, and the intersections of dispossession, property rights, and collective memory are explored to illuminate the structural and symbolic dimensions of violence. Case studies undertaken in diffrent contexts – from Indigenous dispossession to Eastern Europe's contemporary crisis – bring forward the agency of displaced peoples in constructing alternate cultural landscapes. By synthesizing ethnographic insights with broader theoretical debates, students will deepen their understanding of how displacement challenges and and redefines notions of belonging in the world of motion. |
