  This introductory seminar offers an overview of important approaches and contributions to global history. By discussing writings and research widely drawn upon by global historians, students will gain a toolkit for understanding and critically assessing the turn away from nation-centered ways of seeing history that has occurred in the last decades. This global turn has paved the way for histories focusing on the movements of people, goods, and ideas across boundaries. Global history is concerned with understanding how these cross-border movements have determined and shaped historical change at the local, regional, national, transnational, and global level. At the end of the semester, the participants will be familiar with and will have developed a personal stance towards these approaches.

  From Bretton Woods to Neoliberal Globalization. The History of the Global Economic Order Since 1944 (Jonas Kreienbaum)
  Schedule: Mo 14:00-16:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)
  Location: A 184 Besprechungsraum (Koserstr. 20)
  
  Comments
  
  When delegations from 44 Allied Nations met at Bretton Woods in July 1944 to discuss the rules of the future global economic and financial order, many regions of the world were underrepresented (or not represented at all) because they were still part of Western colonial empires. Soon socialist states opted out of the Bretton Woods order establishing their own economic and trading system. And after most former colonies had become independent nation states in the years following the war, the “Third World” challenged this Western dominated order demanding the establishment of a New International Economic Order (NIEO) in 1974. With the onset of a major international debt crisis hitting both large parts of the Global South and many socialist states of Eastern Europe in the early 1980s, the demand for the NIEO collapsed. Major Western creditors and international financial institutions like the IMF and the World Bank pushed for the liberalization and opening up of debtor economies paving the way for “neoliberal globalization” since the 1990s. The seminar will discuss this history of the global economic order since the end of the Second World War, situating it both in the history of the Cold War and the North-South conflict.

  Today, technologies such as unmanned aerial vehicles and AI systems are developed across increasingly blurred civil-military boundaries. The term dual-use refers to such technologies—as well as the underlying processes of research, development, and production—that can serve both civilian and military purposes and shift easily between peaceful and violent applications. While civil-military convergence is a pressing issue in the context of the current Fourth Industrial Revolution, the fundamental questions it raises about security and ethics are far from new.
  
  This seminar explores historical dual-use dynamics in research, development, and technology use since the late 19th century. In this period, the dual-use potential of artefacts and knowledge carried various—often contradictory—meanings: it implied economic efficiency and served as camouflage or legitimation for high-risk research. Dual-use technologies have consistently functioned as instruments of power and violence. They became contested objects within international regimes and sites of public debate.
  
  Embedding these dynamics within the broader historical patterns and contexts of their time, the seminar examines dual-use strategies and the resulting societal and geopolitical challenges. It traces the roots of the military-industrial complex back to the imperial era and investigates the influence of seemingly civilian technologies on colonial rule. The seminar explores how state and technoscientific actors—especially in Europe and the U.S.—increasingly established dual-use structures in research and development before and during both World Wars and the Cold War. It addresses the diversification strategies of global industrial players and the covert arms trade, both of which were simultaneously supported by state governments and constrained by export controls. At the same time, it highlights debates on research ethics and scientific responsibility, as well as instances of individual resistance dating back to the First World War.
  By placing current public debates—such as those surrounding AI or drones—into historical context, the seminar reveals the underlying processes, dynamics, and patterns of global dual-use politics, and offers critical perspectives for confronting today’s challenges

  Looking through the City: Global Urban Histories in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries (Michael Goebel)
  Schedule: Termine siehe LV-Details (Class starts on: 2025-10-16)
  Location: K03 Seminarraum (Rüdesheimer Str. 54 / 56)
  
  Comments
  
  Looking at history through the city reveals the nuances and absences left out of established historical narratives. The aim of this seminar is to rethink these narratives, as well as other concepts and chronologies by approaching life in cities across the globe. What can we learn about transnational networks of anticolonial resistance in global hubs? What does residential segregation reveal about migration patterns and class? How does urban space play a role in negotiating political futures? What kind of archives and research methodologies help unravel the layers of urban history? During this block seminar, students will be expected to actively engage by reading and discussing assigned texts, as well as by carrying out assignments and participating in planned excursions or other activities. The aim of this course is to assemble a toolbox for utilizing urban history as a framework for writing wider, more critical histories across geographies and time periods. Sessions will be supported throughout the semester by doctoral candidates.

  Biological Sex and Race in the Colonial Sciences, 1700-Present (Sarah Katherine Bellows-Blakely)
  Schedule: Fr 14:00-16:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-17)
  Location: A 124 Übungsraum (Koserstr. 20)
  
  Comments
  
  What is the history of the science behind biological sex (male, female, intersex, and all of the messiness within and between these categories)? Why and how have scientific understandings of biological sex been so deeply politicized and connected to various forms of violence? How did race and racism grow in and through scientific explorations of biological sex, especially in imperial and colonial contexts? Which understandings of biological sex became dominant or accepted as truth while others were cast aside, erased, covered up, or forgotten? These are just a few of the questions that we will ask in this discussion-based seminar. Drawing from a range of readings in the global histories of science, gender and sex(uality), race and ethnicity, and empire, this seminar will simultaneously interrogate the science behind biological sex; its inextricable connections to notions of race and ethnicity; the violences of empire; and the forms of knowledge production that brought all of this together over more than three centuries.

  Comments
  
  This course explores the varied—and often contradictory—realities of everyday life under state socialism after the World War II. The ebb and flow of the state socialist regimes will be viewed through the broad spectrum of cultural production. Focusing primarily on the Polish People’s Republic, students will engage with a range of sources, topics, and historical figures from across Central and Eastern Europe. Using secondary literature, memoirs, group discussions, and object-based peer work, the seminar will address themes such as industrialization, consumerism, decolonization, gendered labor divisions, mobility, political dissidence and daily life. We will investigate how different forms of cultural production—from elite arts and mass events to the workings of the public sphere—both reflected and shaped socialist societies. These cultural expressions will be considered in relation to major political events, crises, and governing mechanisms such as the protests of March ’68 and the Second Indochina War (also known as the Vietnam War). By the end of the course, students will gain a nuanced understanding of socialism as a lived experience, with all its complexities and paradoxes.

  Queering Soviet History (Alexandra Oberländer)
  Schedule: Di 10-12 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)
  Location: keine Angabe
  
  Comments
  
  This seminar is an introduction to current debates in gender history. It briefly discusses the – if you will – “classic” binary histories of Soviet men and women, yet aims at incorporating fresh research on queer histories and asks primarily how classic histories could be queered as well. For language reasons we will focus on visual sources and ask whether and how the Soviet Union was open to other forms of gender representation. We will also discuss sexuality and bodies, questions of reproduction, contraception and illness. Among others, the peculiarities of the Soviet discourse on HIV will be examined (AIDS was not considered a “gay disease”, unlike in the West). With the approaching of the end of the term we will discuss methodologies and theories of visual history as the aim for the seminar paper is to deliver a source interpretation of your own. This seminar is reading intensive. Every week at least two texts will be read. For half of the meetings the submission of response papers is expected.

  Humanitarian Intervention, Peacebuilding, and Statebuilding in the Western Balkans in Global and Historical Perspectives
  Schedule: Do 10:00-12:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-16)
  Location: Fried191 Institutsgebäude - Friedrichstraße 191 (FRS191) 4031 (Seminarraum) 4. OG
  
  Comments
  
  The seminar focuses on the international interventions of the 1990s and early 2000s in the Western Balkans (Former Yugoslavia). However, this focus is embedded in a broader historical and geographical context.
  
  We begin with international interventions in the late 19th century noting some remarkable similarities in terms of language, motivation, justification and implementation. From there, we skip ahead a century to examine the immediate antecedents of the 1990s interventions in the Western Balkans — including the peacekeeping missions in Cyprus and the Near East, as well as the short-lived and ill-fated U.S. intervention in Somalia — in order to understand the mindset, toolkit, and institutional architecture of interventionism that was subsequently applied in the region.
  The main section of the seminar deals with the actual interventions of the 1990s and early 2000s in the Western Balkans: how they drew on lessons from previous decades and how they evolved in response to context-specific challenges and shifting requirements. We then turn to simultaneous interventions outside the Balkans (e.g., Rwanda, Liberia, Guatemala) and to subsequent interventions (e.g., Afghanistan, Iraq, East Timor) to see how simultaneous missions influenced each other and how these influenced subsequent missions. In the final session, we return to the Western Balkans to examine the legacy of the 1990s interventions and what remains in place today — particularly the Office of the High Representative (OHR) in Bosnia-Herzegovina and the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK).
  
  In addition to the assigned literature, I will also draw on my personal experience to provide insights into several of the missions discussed over the course of the seminar.

  Too Much. A global intellectual history of excess (too many people, too much stuff, too much information) (Leonie Wolters)
  Schedule: Mo 10:00-12:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)
  Location: A 184 Besprechungsraum (Koserstr. 20)
  
  Comments
  
  Global history is about a lot - in this case: too much. The seminar explores global modernity through the lens of excess—examining how, in the 19th and 20th centuries, people, goods, and information came to be framed as too much. As disciplines such as statistics, economics, and information theory advanced, the world was increasingly imagined as a closed and measurable system. Population growth, industrial production, and the proliferation of information were quantified—and, at times, problematized—as overwhelming surpluses.
  
  Relying on the work of historians and critical theorists, the course investigates the political and epistemological processes through which certain lives, commodities, and forms of knowledge were rendered superfluous. It also introduces intellectual and political responses to this framing—counter-narratives that challenge discourses of redundancy.
  
  We consider three overlapping domains of excess:
  
  ?      People: Drawing on scholarship that places the production of superfluous populations at the heart of modernity, we examine how specific groups—across colonial, urban, and global contexts—were categorized as excessive. We explore the emergence of population control as a governmental and ideological project, as well as its material and moral consequences.
  
  ?      Stuff: The course traces an intellectual history of waste, planned obsolescence, and overproduction. We consider how material excess came to define modern economies and geopolitical divides, shaping a world split between South and North, East and West. Waste is studied not only as a byproduct, but as an active force in the remaking of global systems.
  
  ?      Information: Turning to the digital age, we examine narratives of information overload and the construction of attention as a finite resource. We investigate how both "information" and "human attention" were redefined as measurable and manageable quantities. We also consider the history of a key solution that was developed in the 20th century: the search engine.
  
  Across all three areas, the seminar critically engages with narratives of overwhelm and asks: Who gets to define what is too much? What are the consequences of those definitions? And what intellectual alternatives have been proposed to reimagine excess not as failure, but as possibility?

  Illiberal Internationalism: Catholic Reactionaries, Global Fascism and the Transnational Far Right from the 19th Century to the Present (Ned Richardson-Little)
  Schedule: Mo 12:00-14:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)
  Location: A 127 Übungsraum (Koserstr. 20)
  
  Comments
  
  In recent years, the decline of the liberal international order has raised the specter of a new kind of internationalism led by authoritarian, nationalist and far right forces. Although most scholars can generally agree on a broad definition of liberal internationalism, its illiberal counterpart remains a highly contested concept as its historical examples have usually proven to be divided, fractious and contradictory. This seminar will explore the many previous iterations of reactionary, conservative and far right efforts at international cooperation, and their alternative visions of an illiberal international order. The seminar will begin with the rise of the “Black International” of reactionary Catholicism against the widespread emergence of liberalism and parliamentary democracy in the late 19th century. It will then cover the multiplicity of internationalisms to emerge during the interwar period from nationalists, fascists and Nazis and their legcies into the postwar era. Finally, it will conclude with the post-Cold War rise of the nationalist right across the West including with a focus on Europeanization. The readings will be interdisciplinary and include theoretical works seeking to conceptualize illiberal internationalisms as well as a range of historical studies into specific actors and movements and organizations, including the Montreux Conference, the World Union of National Socialists and the New Right.

  Location: Universitätsgebäude am Hegelplatz - Dorotheenstraße 24 1.404 (Seminarraum) - Stockwerk: 4. OG
  
  Comments
  
  This seminar explores how economic and political transformations—such as globalization, technological change, welfare reform, or migration—affect social cohesion. We examine key theoretical perspectives and recent empirical studies to understand the mechanisms through which change influences social cohesion along various dimensions. Students will apply these insights by conducting their own research projects, each focusing on a specific case study of their choice.
  
  While the course does not require advanced skills in statistics or economics, students of history are expected to read and discuss research papers from economics and other social sciences. Students from economics, meanwhile, will engage with methods of historical research and source/data collection. The first part of the seminar (weeks 1–7) is dedicated to discussing methodological and theoretical issues, while the second part (weeks 8–15) is focusing to present historical case studies. Research groups will consist of students from both History and Economics to encourage interdisciplinarity.

Die Studentinnen und Studenten können den Forschungsstand zu globalgeschichtlichen Themen erschließen und eigenständig diesbezüglich relevante Quellenbestände heranziehen, auswerten und interpretieren. Auf dieser Grundlage gelingt es ihnen, eigene Forschungsansätze zu entwickeln und umzusetzen und zu wissenschaftlich fundierten Aussagen über die Vergangenheit in globalgeschichtlicher Perspektive zu kommen. Die Studentinnen und Studenten sind in der Lage, Ergebnisse schriftlich und mündlich zu präsentieren und zu diskutieren sowie ihre Position sachlich fundiert zu begründen.
Inhalte:
Das Modul gibt Einblick in die historische Entwicklung und Genese wichtiger globaler Konfigurationen und behandelt die historische Dimension globaler Beziehungen, Strukturen und Prozesse. In beiden Seminaren werden je ein Thema oder ein Problemzusammenhang oder eine Akteursgruppe behandelt, die für die Globalgeschichte oder eine sich globalisierende Konfiguration (z. B. Migration, Warenströme, Kommunikation) von zentraler Bedeutung sind. Anhand von Fachliteratur und Quellen zu einer oder unterschiedlichen Weltregionen werden dabei ausgewählte, z. B. sozial-, gender-, wirtschafts- oder kulturgeschichtliche, Themen in globalgeschichtlicher Perspektive aufgegriffen und in ihrer historischen Entwicklung und mit Bezug auf ihre globalen Dimensionen diskutiert.

  The seminar focuses on the international interventions of the 1990s and early 2000s in the Western Balkans (Former Yugoslavia). However, this focus is embedded in a broader historical and geographical context.
  
  We begin with international interventions in the late 19th century noting some remarkable similarities in terms of language, motivation, justification and implementation. From there, we skip ahead a century to examine the immediate antecedents of the 1990s interventions in the Western Balkans — including the peacekeeping missions in Cyprus and the Near East, as well as the short-lived and ill-fated U.S. intervention in Somalia — in order to understand the mindset, toolkit, and institutional architecture of interventionism that was subsequently applied in the region.
  The main section of the seminar deals with the actual interventions of the 1990s and early 2000s in the Western Balkans: how they drew on lessons from previous decades and how they evolved in response to context-specific challenges and shifting requirements. We then turn to simultaneous interventions outside the Balkans (e.g., Rwanda, Liberia, Guatemala) and to subsequent interventions (e.g., Afghanistan, Iraq, East Timor) to see how simultaneous missions influenced each other and how these influenced subsequent missions. In the final session, we return to the Western Balkans to examine the legacy of the 1990s interventions and what remains in place today — particularly the Office of the High Representative (OHR) in Bosnia-Herzegovina and the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK).
  
  In addition to the assigned literature, I will also draw on my personal experience to provide insights into several of the missions discussed over the course of the seminar.

  From Bretton Woods to Neoliberal Globalization. The History of the Global Economic Order Since 1944 (Jonas Kreienbaum)
  Schedule: Mo 14:00-16:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)

  When delegations from 44 Allied Nations met at Bretton Woods in July 1944 to discuss the rules of the future global economic and financial order, many regions of the world were underrepresented (or not represented at all) because they were still part of Western colonial empires. Soon socialist states opted out of the Bretton Woods order establishing their own economic and trading system. And after most former colonies had become independent nation states in the years following the war, the “Third World” challenged this Western dominated order demanding the establishment of a New International Economic Order (NIEO) in 1974. With the onset of a major international debt crisis hitting both large parts of the Global South and many socialist states of Eastern Europe in the early 1980s, the demand for the NIEO collapsed. Major Western creditors and international financial institutions like the IMF and the World Bank pushed for the liberalization and opening up of debtor economies paving the way for “neoliberal globalization” since the 1990s. The seminar will discuss this history of the global economic order since the end of the Second World War, situating it both in the history of the Cold War and the North-South conflict.

  Today, technologies such as unmanned aerial vehicles and AI systems are developed across increasingly blurred civil-military boundaries. The term dual-use refers to such technologies—as well as the underlying processes of research, development, and production—that can serve both civilian and military purposes and shift easily between peaceful and violent applications. While civil-military convergence is a pressing issue in the context of the current Fourth Industrial Revolution, the fundamental questions it raises about security and ethics are far from new.
  
  This seminar explores historical dual-use dynamics in research, development, and technology use since the late 19th century. In this period, the dual-use potential of artefacts and knowledge carried various—often contradictory—meanings: it implied economic efficiency and served as camouflage or legitimation for high-risk research. Dual-use technologies have consistently functioned as instruments of power and violence. They became contested objects within international regimes and sites of public debate.
  
  Embedding these dynamics within the broader historical patterns and contexts of their time, the seminar examines dual-use strategies and the resulting societal and geopolitical challenges. It traces the roots of the military-industrial complex back to the imperial era and investigates the influence of seemingly civilian technologies on colonial rule. The seminar explores how state and technoscientific actors—especially in Europe and the U.S.—increasingly established dual-use structures in research and development before and during both World Wars and the Cold War. It addresses the diversification strategies of global industrial players and the covert arms trade, both of which were simultaneously supported by state governments and constrained by export controls. At the same time, it highlights debates on research ethics and scientific responsibility, as well as instances of individual resistance dating back to the First World War.
  By placing current public debates—such as those surrounding AI or drones—into historical context, the seminar reveals the underlying processes, dynamics, and patterns of global dual-use politics, and offers critical perspectives for confronting today’s challenges

  Looking at history through the city reveals the nuances and absences left out of established historical narratives. The aim of this seminar is to rethink these narratives, as well as other concepts and chronologies by approaching life in cities across the globe. What can we learn about transnational networks of anticolonial resistance in global hubs? What does residential segregation reveal about migration patterns and class? How does urban space play a role in negotiating political futures? What kind of archives and research methodologies help unravel the layers of urban history? During this block seminar, students will be expected to actively engage by reading and discussing assigned texts, as well as by carrying out assignments and participating in planned excursions or other activities. The aim of this course is to assemble a toolbox for utilizing urban history as a framework for writing wider, more critical histories across geographies and time periods. Sessions will be supported throughout the semester by doctoral candidates.

  Too Much. A global intellectual history of excess (too many people, too much stuff, too much information) (Leonie Wolters)
  Schedule: Mo 10:00-12:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)
  Location: A 184 Besprechungsraum (Koserstr. 20)
  
  Comments
  
  Global history is about a lot - in this case: too much. The seminar explores global modernity through the lens of excess—examining how, in the 19th and 20th centuries, people, goods, and information came to be framed as too much. As disciplines such as statistics, economics, and information theory advanced, the world was increasingly imagined as a closed and measurable system. Population growth, industrial production, and the proliferation of information were quantified—and, at times, problematized—as overwhelming surpluses.
  
  Relying on the work of historians and critical theorists, the course investigates the political and epistemological processes through which certain lives, commodities, and forms of knowledge were rendered superfluous. It also introduces intellectual and political responses to this framing—counter-narratives that challenge discourses of redundancy.
  
  We consider three overlapping domains of excess:
  
  ?      People: Drawing on scholarship that places the production of superfluous populations at the heart of modernity, we examine how specific groups—across colonial, urban, and global contexts—were categorized as excessive. We explore the emergence of population control as a governmental and ideological project, as well as its material and moral consequences.
  
  ?      Stuff: The course traces an intellectual history of waste, planned obsolescence, and overproduction. We consider how material excess came to define modern economies and geopolitical divides, shaping a world split between South and North, East and West. Waste is studied not only as a byproduct, but as an active force in the remaking of global systems.
  
  ?      Information: Turning to the digital age, we examine narratives of information overload and the construction of attention as a finite resource. We investigate how both "information" and "human attention" were redefined as measurable and manageable quantities. We also consider the history of a key solution that was developed in the 20th century: the search engine.
  
  Across all three areas, the seminar critically engages with narratives of overwhelm and asks: Who gets to define what is too much? What are the consequences of those definitions? And what intellectual alternatives have been proposed to reimagine excess not as failure, but as possibility?

  Schedule: Mo 12:00-14:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)
  Location: A 127 Übungsraum (Koserstr. 20)
  
  Comments
  
  In recent years, the decline of the liberal international order has raised the specter of a new kind of internationalism led by authoritarian, nationalist and far right forces. Although most scholars can generally agree on a broad definition of liberal internationalism, its illiberal counterpart remains a highly contested concept as its historical examples have usually proven to be divided, fractious and contradictory. This seminar will explore the many previous iterations of reactionary, conservative and far right efforts at international cooperation, and their alternative visions of an illiberal international order. The seminar will begin with the rise of the “Black International” of reactionary Catholicism against the widespread emergence of liberalism and parliamentary democracy in the late 19th century. It will then cover the multiplicity of internationalisms to emerge during the interwar period from nationalists, fascists and Nazis and their legcies into the postwar era. Finally, it will conclude with the post-Cold War rise of the nationalist right across the West including with a focus on Europeanization. The readings will be interdisciplinary and include theoretical works seeking to conceptualize illiberal internationalisms as well as a range of historical studies into specific actors and movements and organizations, including the Montreux Conference, the World Union of National Socialists and the New Right.

  Queering Soviet History (Alexandra Oberländer)
  Schedule: Di 10-12 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)
  Location: keine Angabe
  
  Comments
  
  This seminar is an introduction to current debates in gender history. It briefly discusses the – if you will – “classic” binary histories of Soviet men and women, yet aims at incorporating fresh research on queer histories and asks primarily how classic histories could be queered as well. For language reasons we will focus on visual sources and ask whether and how the Soviet Union was open to other forms of gender representation. We will also discuss sexuality and bodies, questions of reproduction, contraception and illness. Among others, the peculiarities of the Soviet discourse on HIV will be examined (AIDS was not considered a “gay disease”, unlike in the West). With the approaching of the end of the term we will discuss methodologies and theories of visual history as the aim for the seminar paper is to deliver a source interpretation of your own. This seminar is reading intensive. Every week at least two texts will be read. For half of the meetings the submission of response papers is expected.

  Comments
  
  This seminar explores how economic and political transformations—such as globalization, technological change, welfare reform, or migration—affect social cohesion. We examine key theoretical perspectives and recent empirical studies to understand the mechanisms through which change influences social cohesion along various dimensions. Students will apply these insights by conducting their own research projects, each focusing on a specific case study of their choice.
  
  While the course does not require advanced skills in statistics or economics, students of history are expected to read and discuss research papers from economics and other social sciences. Students from economics, meanwhile, will engage with methods of historical research and source/data collection. The first part of the seminar (weeks 1–7) is dedicated to discussing methodological and theoretical issues, while the second part (weeks 8–15) is focusing to present historical case studies. Research groups will consist of students from both History and Economics to encourage interdisciplinarity.

  El curso se propone analizar el proceso de formación y desarrollo de la clase obrera latinoamericana y las culturas políticas de izquierda a través de un enfoque sincrónico, desde finales del siglo XIX hasta las primeras décadas del XXI. A partir de una mirada global aunque anclada en los países del cono Sur, se estudian las sucesivas fases de desarrollo del movimiento obrero en América Latina y su conjunción con las corrientes de izquierda a partir de diferentes estudios de caso. Uno de los principales objetivos del seminario es familiarizar a los alumnos con la bibliografía elemental sobre la historia social, política y económica latinoamericana, analizando obras “clásicas” aunque también aportes más recientes. /// The course aims to analyze the process of formation and development of the Latin American working class and left-wing political cultures through a synchronic approach, from the end of the nineteenth century to the first decades of the twenty-first. Based on a global perspective, although anchored in the countries of the Southern Cone, the successive phases of development of the labor movement in Latin America and its conjunction with left-wing currents are examined through different case studies. A central objective of the seminar is to acquaint students with the fundamental bibliography on Latin American social, political and economic history, encompasing both seminal works and recent contributions. /// Der Fokus des Kurses liegt auf der Analyse des Prozesses der Bildung und Entwicklung der lateinamerikanischen Arbeiterklasse sowie der linken politischen Kulturen. Zu diesem Zweck wird ein synchroner Ansatz vom Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts bis in die ersten Jahrzehnte des 21. Jahrhunderts verfolgt. Ausgehend von einer globalen Perspektive, die jedoch in den Ländern des südlichen Lateinamerikas verankert ist, werden die aufeinanderfolgenden Entwicklungsphasen der Arbeiterbewegung in Lateinamerika und ihre Verbindung mit linken Strömungen anhand verschiedener Fallstudien untersucht. Ein zentrales Ziel des Seminars besteht darin, die Studierenden mit der grundlegenden Bibliographie zur sozialen, politischen und wirtschaftlichen Geschichte Lateinamerikas vertraut zu machen. Diese Bibliographie umfasst sowohl grundlegende Werke als auch neuere Beiträge.

  What happens when an alien, originally non-Muslim group of military slaves takes power in a central part of the Islamic world? How are the political processes changing and what influence does such a military takeover have on economic and cultural life? How do these former slave soldiers engage with neighboring polities, and how are they viewed by outside observers? How do diverse groups of inhabitants organize their lives under the new rulers? The seminar addresses these and similar questions by introducing its participants to the history of the Mamluk Sultanate – a powerful polity that ruled over Egypt, Syria, and neighboring areas for more than 250 years from the end of the crusades to the beginning of the early modern period. The participants in the seminar learn about the history, economy and governmental structure of this unique sultanate, its elite and popular cultures, and its interactions with its neighbors including Crusader states, other Muslim-ruled sultanates, and European powers trying to expand their influence across the Mediterranean and into the Indian Ocean.

  By ‘secularity’ we in this course understand the conceptual distinction and structural differentiation of religion from other social spheres, e.g., politics, economics, science. In modernity, secularity has come to shape societies globally, including Near Eastern societies. We will in this course attend first to structural processes and arrangements of differentiations in selected Arab countries and Turkey. We will then turn to conceptual distinctions that were formulated in view of the structural conditions of secularity. In this regard, we will focus on Islamic intellectuals, but also include Christian thinkers and secular politicians. It will become evident that while the majority of Islamic intellectuals refutes secularism, i.e., the increased separation of religion and its respective other, they, too, operate with an underlying distinction of secularity, also when arguing for greater connections. We will focus on the time from the late nineteenth to the middle of the twentieth century, as that time in which structures of secularity were established and basic conceptions formulated. We will, however, attend also to more recent and contemporary elaborations of secularity and will address classical historical moments and sources insofar as these were appropriated as references for conceptualizing secularity in modern times.

  The seminar addresses a variety of local settings, comprising a huge temporal and geographical corridor. It takes a look at the history of mosque architecture/design and the emergence of certain types that can be related to different societies and regions. A number of famous buildings and their environments will be analyzed in some detail. Furthermore, mosques are not understood here as stand-alone building units; rather, we will tackle embedded places in their wider cultural and socio-economic functions. Dimensions like sound regimes, gendered spaces, and the genre of state mosques will be considered. A certain focus will be on mixed styles, modern mosques, and the phenomenon of transnational architecture.

  Utilizada para designar prácticas y discursos, experiencias históricas e incluso espacios geográficos muy diversos entre sí, la voz “América Latina” supo devenir, a lo largo de los dos últimos siglos, en un referente complejo, cuyo sentido debe analizarse a la luz de las disputas políticas, culturales y científicas de los contextos determinados. Los contornos siempre permeables que definen esa identidad colectiva han sido recortados de manera distinta para señalar, por ejemplo, el tema indígena y la perspectiva indianista, un acervo de valores y tradiciones culturales por oposición al de los imperios, el origen común de los estados naciones del subcontinente, categorías y teorías sobre problemas constitutivos de sus sociedades, las correspondientes recetas para solucionarlos o narrativas que supieron augurar promesas de transformaciones políticas revolucionarias. El curso concibe la “constitución” de la región de esa manera plural y propone, desde las perspectivas disciplinares de la historia y la antropología, un abordaje analítico de una serie de problemas y procesos singulares de la época precolombina, colonial y contemporánea. A través del análisis de fuentes históricas y contribuciones científicas, el itinerario es parcialmente recorrido con docentes y estudiantes de la maestría Anthropology of the Americas de la Universität Bonn.

14220-GH Seminar
The Mamluk Sultanate in Its Global Context (Christian Mauder)
Schedule: Mi 16:00-18:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-15)
Location: 1.2051 Seminarraum (Fabeckstr. 23/25)

Comments

What happens when an alien, originally non-Muslim group of military slaves takes power in a central part of the Islamic world? How are the political processes changing and what influence does such a military takeover have on economic and cultural life? How do these former slave soldiers engage with neighboring polities, and how are they viewed by outside observers? How do diverse groups of inhabitants organize their lives under the new rulers? The seminar addresses these and similar questions by introducing its participants to the history of the Mamluk Sultanate – a powerful polity that ruled over Egypt, Syria, and neighboring areas for more than 250 years from the end of the crusades to the beginning of the early modern period. The participants in the seminar learn about the history, economy and governmental structure of this unique sultanate, its elite and popular cultures, and its interactions with its neighbors including Crusader states, other Muslim-ruled sultanates, and European powers trying to expand their influence across the Mediterranean and into the Indian Ocean.

14225-GH Seminar
Global Secularity: Near Eastern Cases (Mohammad Magout)
Schedule: Mo 12:00-14:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)
Location: 0.3099B Seminarraum (Zugang von der L-Strasse) (Fabeckstr. 23/25)

Comments

By ‘secularity’ we in this course understand the conceptual distinction and structural differentiation of religion from other social spheres, e.g., politics, economics, science. In modernity, secularity has come to shape societies globally, including Near Eastern societies. We will in this course attend first to structural processes and arrangements of differentiations in selected Arab countries and Turkey. We will then turn to conceptual distinctions that were formulated in view of the structural conditions of secularity. In this regard, we will focus on Islamic intellectuals, but also include Christian thinkers and secular politicians. It will become evident that while the majority of Islamic intellectuals refutes secularism, i.e., the increased separation of religion and its respective other, they, too, operate with an underlying distinction of secularity, also when arguing for greater connections. We will focus on the time from the late nineteenth to the middle of the twentieth century, as that time in which structures of secularity were established and basic conceptions formulated. We will, however, attend also to more recent and contemporary elaborations of secularity and will address classical historical moments and sources insofar as these were appropriated as references for conceptualizing secularity in modern times.

14229-GH Seminar
The Mosque (Birgit Krawietz)
Schedule: Do 12:00-14:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-16)
Location: 1.2051 Seminarraum (Fabeckstr. 23/25)

Comments

The seminar addresses a variety of local settings, comprising a huge temporal and geographical corridor. It takes a look at the history of mosque architecture/design and the emergence of certain types that can be related to different societies and regions. A number of famous buildings and their environments will be analyzed in some detail. Furthermore, mosques are not understood here as stand-alone building units; rather, we will tackle embedded places in their wider cultural and socio-economic functions. Dimensions like sound regimes, gendered spaces, and the genre of state mosques will be considered. A certain focus will be on mixed styles, modern mosques, and the phenomenon of transnational architecture.

Unter der Leitung von Prof. Manfred Clauss (1945-2025) wurde in den 1980er-Jahren mit dem Aufbau einer Lehrsammlung antiker Münzen am FMI begonnen. Nur kurz danach durch die Wiedervereinigung weitgehend obsolet geworden, hat diese Sammlung in den letzten Jahrzehnten eher wenig Aufmerksamkeit erfahren. Im Rahmen des Kurses wollen wir die Münzsammlung daher neu inventarisieren, ikonographisch und geschichtswissenschaftlich erschließen und auch in die modernen Arbeitsinstrumente der Münzkunde einpflegen. Schlussendliches Ziel soll daneben auch die öffentliche Präsentation der FMI-Münzsammlung in Form einer Ausstellung sein. Der Kurs bietet so eine Einführung in die Methodik und das Erkenntnispotential der antiken, insbesondere römischen Numismatik. Die Bereitschaft zu selbständiger Arbeit im Rahmen des Seminars und der Ausstellungsvorbereitung wird erwartet. Das Seminar wird neben einigen thematisch einführenden Terminen insbesondere an mehreren Blockterminen durchgeführt werden, in denen wir uns auf die Sammlung konzentrieren können (genaue terminliche Absprache erfolgt in der ersten regulären Sitzung).

Das Seminar versucht, römische Geschichte in allen Facetten aus einer weiblichen Perspektive zu erzählen. Anhand der Biographien realer Frauen werden verschiedene Aspekte des Lebens im römischen Reich beleuchtet. Aus ihren Lebenswirklichkeiten, die wir in Inschriften, Papyri, Geschichtsschreibung, Münzen und Architektur nachzeichnen können, wird das römische Reich in seinen politischen, sozialen, rechtlichen, kulturgeschichtlichen, demographischen und religiösen Strukturen in einem Zeitraum von ca. 400 Jahren (1. Jh. v.Chr. bis 3. Jh. n.Chr.) und in seiner gesamten geographischen Ausdehnung entwickelt. Es geht um die großen Linien einer römischen Kulturgeschichte, die aus der Mikrohistorie heraus entworfen werden.

Comments

Das Seminar nimmt das „lange“ 10. Jh. vom Zerfall des Karolingerreiches (888) bis zum Ende der Ottonenzeit (1024) in den Blick. In der Forschung war die Sicht auf diese Zeit lange entweder stark negativ geprägt („dunkles Jahrhundert“) oder durch teleogische Sichtweisen auf nationale Ursprünge bestimmt. Neuere Ansätze untersuchen diese Epoche der Geschichte West- und Mitteleuropas als eigenständige und spannende Phase politischer und gesellschaftlicher Transformation. Hier schließt das Seminar an: anhand ausgewählter Beispiele untersuchen wir, wie in den verschiedenen Regionen des ehemaligen Karolingerreiches neue Formen Institutionen und Formen politischer Autorität entstanden, soziale und wirtschaftliche Beziehungen neu geordnet und kulturelle Traditionen weiterentwickelt wurden. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt dabei auf der Frage, wie Zeitgenossen die Krisen und Umbrüche ihrer Zeit wahrnahmen und welche Rolle der Rückgriff auf die karolingische Vergangenheit dabei spielte.

Die Veranstaltung verfolgt zwei Ziele: Zunächst sollen nach einer Einführung in Beschreibstoffe und Überlieferungsträger (Rolle, Codex) die wichtigsten Eigenheiten der Schriftentwicklung von der ausgehenden Antike bis in die Karolingerzeit vorgestellt werden, um anhand von praktischen Übungen das Lesen handschriftlicher Texte zu erlernen. Auf dieser Grundlage soll im zweiten Teil die handschriftliche Überlieferung aus einer kultur- und wissensgeschichtlichen Perspektive kontextualisiert werden: wie funktionierten Bibliotheken? Wie wurden antike Texte tradiert und genutzt? Was verrät die Zusammenstellung verschiedener Texte zu Handschriften über ihre Rezeption und Nutzung? Schließlich sollen die Teilnehmer mit den Methoden zur digitalen Erschließung von Handschriften vertraut gemacht werden. Gearbeitet wird mit Online-Digitalisaten und Faksimilia von Handschriften. Ein gemeinsamer Besuch der Staatsbibliothek ist geplant.

Die Vorlesung befasst sich mit dem Verhältnis des Osmanischen Reiches zum christlich dominierten Europa in der Frühen Neuzeit (ca. 1500-1800). Im Mittelpunkt stehen die vielfältigen Kontakte und kulturellen Austauschprozesse zwischen dem großteils islamisch geprägten osmanischen Herrschaftsbereich und der europäischen Staatenwelt, die weit mehr darstellten als nur eine Abfolge kriegerischer Konflikte. Zugleich führt die Veranstaltung ein in Grundlagen und zentrale Aspekte der osmanischen Geschichte sowie der Geschichte des frühneuzeitlichen Mitteleuropas in ihrer Verflochtenheit.

Comments

Self-testimonies are a central source of early modern research. Self-testimonies are records in which people express individual observations and experiences relating to the ‘self’. This was done in diaries, biographies, writing books, chronicles and letters, among other things. In addition to conceptual and source-critical considerations, this course will provide an overview of the various life situations and writing practices and ask which categories (gender, religion/confessional denomination, ethnicity) characterised writing about one's own life and perception of the world. To this end, self-testimonies in various local and global contexts will be examined and analysed close to the source.

Was haben Geschlecht und Sexualität mit Demokratisierung zu tun? Viel, lässt sich vermuten, wenn sich Demokratisierung unter anderem als Veränderung von Machtverhältnissen verstehen lässt, gender laut Joan Scott „a primary way of signifying relationships of power“ ist und Sexualität nach Michel Foucault „ein besonders dichter Durchgangspunkt für die Machtbeziehungen“. In diesem Seminar untersuchen wir die Frage anhand der deutschen Demokratisierungsprozesse im 20. Jahrhundert: der Weimarer Republik, der Zeit zwischen Kriegsende und Staatengründungen, der Bundesrepublik und der Transformation von BRD/DDR zur Berliner Republik. Dabei wird es um rechtliche, genauso aber sozioökonomische und kulturelle Veränderungen gehen, die solch unterschiedliche Bereiche wie Ehe und Familie, Berufstätigkeit und Konsum, geschlechtliche und sexuelle Vielfalt, Sexarbeit, (Medien-)Öffentlichkeit und Privatsphäre betrafen.

Comments

Die Geschichte Osteuropas ist eine Streitgeschichte. Kontroverse Deutungen historischer Ereignisse und Zusammenhänge sind dabei keineswegs nur eine Angelegenheit fachwissenschaftlicher Debatten, sondern sie beeinflussen aktuelle politische und gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen. Denn vielfach ist die Geschichte nicht vergangen, sondern sie wird für ganz unterschiedliche Interessen instrumentalisiert; so versucht etwa der russische Präsident Putin den Angriffskrieg auf die Ukraine mit Verweisen auf historische Entwicklungen zu rechtfertigen. Im Seminar wollen wir anhand ausgewählter Debatten Bedeutung und Funktionen geschichtswissenschaftlicher -bzw. politischer Kontroversen diskutieren. Dabei beschäftigen wir uns einerseits mit dem Problem, wie, von wem und warum Geschichte für politische Zwecke instrumentalisiert wurde und wird. Andererseits diskutieren wir anhand ausgewählter Fallbeispiele unterschiedliche Dimensionen dieses Phänomens und fragen, wie Erinnerungskulturen in Zeiten von Geschichtskämpfen ausgestaltet werden können.

Eine der wichtigsten sozialen Bewegungen in der Moderne ist die Frauenbewegung, die seit der französischen Revolution die soziale, rechtliche und politische Gleichberechtigung von Frauen durchzusetzen versuchte und das bis heute. Die Frauenbewegung entwickelte sich jedoch nicht losgelöst von den tiefgreifenden gesellschaftlichen Umbrüchen und Transformationen des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts, wie Industrialisierung, Nationalismus, Internationalisierung, Weltkriege oder der Kalte Krieg, sondern sie war tief in diese eingebettet und prägte sie mit. Vor diesem Hintergrund verfolgt das Seminar die Geschichte der Frauenbewegung auf verschiedenen Ebenen: Anhand ausgewählter Fallbeispiele wird die Entwicklung von Verbänden, Emanzipation und Gleichstellung im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert nachvollzogen und die Rolle der Frauenbewegung in den großen gesellschaftlichen Transformationsprozessen untersucht. Gleichzeitig wirft das Seminar einen Blick auf die internationale Vernetzung und die Internationalisierung der Frauenbewegung seit dem späten 19. Jahrhundert mit einem Fokus auf transnationalen Netzwerken, dem Kalten Krieg, Menschenrechten und Dekolonialisierung.

Nationalism and the Nation-State – A Global History (Michael Goebel)
Schedule: Mi 10:00-12:00 (Class starts on: 2025-10-15)
Location: Hs B Hörsaal (Koserstr. 20)

Comments

Wenigen Ideen der Neueren und Neuesten Geschichte war ein vergleichbar weltweiter Erfolg beschieden wie der Vorstellung, dass jede Nation ihren Staat brauche. Während die Idee der politischen Aufteilung der Welt in Nationalstaaten eine auffallend globale Karriere hatte und hat, sind die Begründungen für nationale Grenzen und die vermeintlichen Charaktermerkmale jeder Nation frappierend partikular. Wie passt das zusammen? Unterstützt von zahlreichen Historiker:innen an unserem Institut widmet sich diese Vorlesung diesem zentralen Paradox, indem sie einen Überblick über den beispiellosen Siegeszug des nationalstaatlichen Gedankens in der modernen Geschichte eröffnet.

Queering Soviet History (Alexandra Oberländer)
Schedule: Di 10-12 (Class starts on: 2025-10-13)
Location: keine Angabe

Comments

This seminar is an introduction to current debates in gender history. It briefly discusses the – if you will – “classic” binary histories of Soviet men and women, yet aims at incorporating fresh research on queer histories and asks primarily how classic histories could be queered as well. For language reasons we will focus on visual sources and ask whether and how the Soviet Union was open to other forms of gender representation. We will also discuss sexuality and bodies, questions of reproduction, contraception and illness. Among others, the peculiarities of the Soviet discourse on HIV will be examined (AIDS was not considered a “gay disease”, unlike in the West). With the approaching of the end of the term we will discuss methodologies and theories of visual history as the aim for the seminar paper is to deliver a source interpretation of your own. This seminar is reading intensive. Every week at least two texts will be read. For half of the meetings the submission of response papers is expected.
