The metaphor &#8218;intersectionality&#8216; anticipates a multi-dimensional perspective. It aims <!--more-->at analysing as capacious as possible the positioning of subjects\/persons and their courses of action in historical contexts, i.e. within a heterogeneous, but by no means arbitrary field of discourses, institutions and social practices.<br \/>\nDue to their multi-perspectivity, intersectional approaches have to be seen as parts of a current shift of emphasis within cultural sciences and the humanities which is significantly related to ongoing reflections on processes of globalization and the &#8222;spatial turn&#8220;. This scientific orientation can be characterized by its attempt to explore multiple forms of crossings, blurrings, and transgressings of &#8218;borders&#8216; and &#8217;spaces,&#8216; as prevalent concepts like &#8218;transculturality&#8216; and &#8218;transnationality&#8216; demonstrate. In this sense intersectionality studies share certain similarities with the &#8222;histoire crois\u00e9e&#8220; inititated as a heuristic device by B\u00e9nedicte Zimmerman and Michael Werner. According to the &#8222;histoire crois\u00e9e,&#8220; no object in history exists as an isolated entity, or independent of interrelations with other phenomena. Thereby we deal with a processual activity which constantly produces new interrelations between already interrelated objects. What need to be distinguished in this heuristic perspective are, on the one hand, the interrelations of different perspectives that guide the views on the interrelated objects, and, on the other hand, the interrelations of analytic practices performed by researchers. While the &#8222;histoire crois\u00e9e&#8220; focuses on diachronic &#8217;space-time&#8216;-structures, intersectional approaches seem to emphasize synchronous relations of social and geographical &#8218;locations&#8216;. In this constellation, the organizers see the need for clarification especially in two regards. First, concerning the question of the historicity of &#8222;axes of inequality&#8220; (Klinger, Knapp) and, second, concerning the use of intersectionality as a methodology within the heterogeneous fields of transnational cultures of knowledge.<br \/>\nFollowing up previous discussions, our conference gives young academics the opportunity to discuss analytical and methodological questions that have emerged from their own research and that are situated in the humanities as well as in the historical and social sciences. While the main focus will be on historical analyses, social practices related to the production of knowledge and representation are considered as well. The presentations encompass both micro- and macro-levels of society.<br \/>\nYou are cordially invited to participate in the seminar.
