MA Globalgeschichte & Global Studies: PM2 Forschungsprozess und Methoden
Letzte Änderung: Di 23.01.2024 15:45
Taken as a whole, the lectures are designed to provide the participant with an extended range of theoretical and methodological tools, as well as a critical understanding of their differences. In this way, the course seeks to assist the participants in thinking of their own position within the vast and contradictory field of global history and global studies.Key questions of the master lectures are:
What is “global history”?
How do scholars “do” global history?
What are the sources of global history?
What are the implications of a global approach for the study of social and historical processes?Each session will include three levels of reflection:
The theories of global history
The methods and practices of global history
The discussion on the position of each individual scholar in the field of global historyEach lecture deals with one broad theoretical and methodological issue, including the questions of periodisation, comparison and the study of connections across space and time. Special attention will be paid to the very question of what exactly the scholars mean by “the global”, and its implications for the ways in which they relate to the primary and secondary sources, their strategies to move beyond ethnocentric and nation-centred histories, and how they construct their global narratives.At the end of each lecture, time will be reserved for questions, clarifications and comments by the participants. Active participation is very much appreciated.
