The Cluster of Excellence "Bonn Center for Dependency and Slavery Studies".
The BCDSS is hosting the Cluster of Excellence "Beyond Slavery and Freedom: Asymmetrical Dependencies in Pre-Modern Societies".
With its research the Bonn Center for Dependency and Slavery Studies aims to overcome the binary opposition of "slavery versus freedom". We propose "asymmetrical dependency" as a new key concept including all forms of bondage across time and space.
Please not the CHANGE OF TIMINGS:
The conference takes place Wednesday, 22.09.2021 (11:30 CEST START) - Thursday, 23.09.2021
The two-day conference hosted by Research Area B examines “embodied dependencies” in human societies from archaeological, art-historical and anthropological perspectives, exploring their historical breadth and variety.
This digital workshop "What is new in the Archaeology of Mobilities? Current issues, latest trends” will take place on 18 February 2022. In order to generate a creative working atmosphere, we want to conduct the workshop using the World Cafémethod. Group discussions and breakout sessions are planned. We will introduce each session with a specific query that relates to the overall workshop question. During the event, participants will discuss these questions within their group before moving on to the next table/group. At the end of the process, a plenary session will summarize the key ideas and discuss follow-up options.
The workshop will take place via Zoom. We encourage scholars from all academic levels to participate. Please register by sending a short statement of motivation (max. 200 words) by 15 January 2022 to: agkulturbewegung@agtida.de
New Podcast of the Joseph C. Miller Memorial Lecture "The Early Slave Trade from Angola to Brazil and the Spanish Caribbean" by David Wheat is available on Youtube.
