Die Sommerschule der Leipziger Graduate School Global and Area Studies (GSGAS) hat sich in den letzten Jahren als produktiver Treffpunkt für die interdisziplinäre Diskussion globaler Verflechtungen sowie neuer Trends in der Globalisierungsforschung im Allgemeinen etabliert. Die Ausgabe 2021, die in enger Zusammenarbeit mit dem Forschungszentrum Global Dynamics (ReCentGlobe) organisiert wird, befasst sich mit den möglichen Auswirkungen der Covid-19-Krise auf die Rolle, die die Wissenschaft im Allgemeinen und die Sozial- und Geisteswissenschaften im Besonderen nach der Überwindung der Krise spielen können.
Hierzu befassen sich die Workshops und Panels der Summer School: Was sind die Mechanismen der Wissensproduktion und wie wird Wissen in und zwischen Gesellschaften verbreitet und wahrgenommen. Was wird als nützliches Wissen aufgefasst und wie wandelt sich die Diskussion dazu?
Interessierte Doktoranden und Postdocs sind herzlich eingeladen, teilzunehmen und mitzudiskutieren.

The Summer School of the Leipzig Graduate School Global and Area Studies (GSGAS) has established itself in recent years as a productive meeting place for interdisciplinary discussion of global connections as well as new trends in globalisation research. The 2021 edition, organised in close cooperation with the Research Centre Global Dynamics (ReCentGlobe), will address the potential impact of the Covid 19 crisis on the role that science in general, and the social sciences and humanities in particular, can play after the crisis has been overcome.
To this end, the workshops and panels of the Summer School address: What are the mechanisms of knowledge production and how is knowledge disseminated and perceived in and between societies? What is perceived as useful knowledge and how is the discussion about it changing?
Interested PhD candidates and Postdocs are cordially invited to participate and join in the discussion.
