Im Mittelpunkt des Vortrags steht die Frage nach der Differenz zwischen der alten Grausamkeit und der neuen kolonialen Gewaltlust. Sind die genealogischen Untersuchungen Friedrich Nietzsches und Michel Foucaults in besonderer Weise dazu geeignet, um diese Frage zu profilieren?

It is generally assumed that a reference to surfaces marks a reduction and hence a loss for our thinking. But what would it mean to consider the opposite?

While home is often theorized as a category of space, the question of home for migrants is a complicated one. It brings to the forefront complex relations beyond the reductive dichotomies of 'home' and 'away', place of origin and place of residence, which postcolonial and diaspora studies often focus on. With the upsurge in migration rates in the past years, it becomes crucial to reflect on how to define home or the process of homemaking in an attempt to explore the experience of 'home' for mobile individuals.
