Thema: Structural Change in the Central German Coal Region

This module will equip students with the skills and conceptual ideas to conduct their own small research projects in the Central German Coal Region area. The module will include introductions of a broader understanding of structural change, as part of a long durée of shifting industrial lives and enduring cultural identities and landscapes. Conceptual themes will include community, material and infrastructural landscapes, and future-making, to inform students’ own perspectives on the structural change in the region, as coal transitions accelerate and the legacies of reunification endure. It will also feature guest lectures from others researching and working in the area of coal transition, including in how Just Transition Fund money is allocated.

Students will conduct small fieldwork projects and produce a report in small groups. Projects could include work on heritage expressions in the landscape, the emotional legacies of displacement by migrating coal fields, or the post-industrial landscape from historical industries. The module will also build on students’ methodological skills, introducing ethnographic fieldwork that students will conduct in small groups as part of the module.

Teachings, Readings, and Assessments for this module will be in English.

A compulsory reading list for the module will be provided shortly, as well as a schedule. The module will be conducted as a block seminar, with a block in April, a short block in May, and another in July where students will present the findings of their research. Outstanding projects will be published as part of the Department's Working Paper series.
