DEPENDENT 22-1 OUT NOW DEPENDENT 22-1 OUT NOW

The research magazine of the Bonn Center for Dependency and Slavery Studies

Our lead article by Rudolf Stichweh focuses on "Values, Norms, and Institutions in the Study of Slavery and other Forms of Asymmetrical Dependency." Find out in what way the paradoxical theory of "including exclusion" can be seen as the institutional form of almost all strong asymmetrical dependencies and what it means for the historical and contemporary study of societies.

You also get a chance to get to know our Cluster professors Julia Hillner, Claudia Jarzebowski, Pia Wiegmink and Christoph Witzenrath through "their objects" as each of them discusses an object that is representative of their research. By looking at the social dimensions of material culture they lay bare the many different layers of dependency relations. 

Out and about:
While some of our researchers were able to make use of the temporary ease in COVID-related travel restrictions and quickly squeezed in their long overdue field trips, others altered their research project altogether. Find out from our own "correspondents": Michael Zeuske (Cuba), Ayesha Hussain (Italy) Paul Graf (Guatemala), Martin Bentz, Philippe Kluge, and Matthias Lang (Italy), Katja Girr, Ayesha Hussain (Turkey), Dita Auziņa (Belize)
