International Dialogues and Travelling Concepts: Relations among Research Centers and their contributions to the production of knowledge

Joint workshop between the University of Basel (Switzerland) and the Federal University of Pernambuco (Brazil)

The workshop aims at discussing how institutional relations among research centers located in different countries have contributed to the development of African Studies and the impact of these relations on the knowledge produced in these contexts. The questions asked by the Workshop are: How have dialogues between Research Centers promoted conceptual discussions that improve the understanding of given concepts in each context? What impact does this have on the way we conceive African Studies and social science research itself? What challenges and potentials have these dialogues brought to African Studies in different research contexts?
