Ariane Komeda: In between - Architekturschaffen im kolonialen Namibia

Namibian and Southern African Studies Research Colloquium

In her dissertation Ariane Komeda (University of Berne) discusses German colonial architecture as "a hybrid architecture overseas", which manifests today as a cultural clash. Her talk will focus on the Namibian context.

The <link namibian and southern african internal link in current>Namibian and Southern African Studies Research Colloquium aims at creating a forum for local and international scholars to engage in cross- disciplinary and methodological debates in Southern African Studies, with particular reference to Namibian Studies.
