The seminar explores these notions, which are literally vital elements in the everyday reality of people's lives and researches the ideas of belonging and of dwelling in the conceptualizations and the practices of lifeworlds. Based on selected concepts and ways of understanding social phenomena and by comparing different regional case studies theoretical and methodological approaches in Anthropology can also be critically examined.
The seminar's goal is providing theoretical-methodological knowledge to enable participants to gain insight and competences for independant further work in the relevant topic areas.
Apart from some introductory input lectures the seminar is based on intense communication, open discussion, active contribution and group work of all participants, using literature and multi-media materials.
The seminar is conducted in English.
