KEY RESEARCH AREAS<\/p>\n
Research areas and concepts: memory studies, (trans)border studies, transculturality, cultural hybridity, intercultural communication, migration studies, regional studies, heritology, postnationality, comparative studies.<\/p>\n
The research conducted collectively by the researchers who represent the Centre is located at the intersection of three overarching categories such as: 1) regional studies<\/strong>; 2) border studies<\/strong> and 3) collective memory<\/strong>. The Centre\u2019s research profile is not limited to issues related to Upper Silesia and the D\u0105browa Basin but it does rely heavily on local knowledge and the regional context as a starting point for comparative research, which is our contribution to international (transborder) cooperation.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n PRINCIPAL AIMS OF THE CENTRE<\/p>\n <\/p>\n TRANSDISCIPLINARITY<\/p>\n The focus of our research is on interdisciplinarity, as well as transdisciplinarity, which implies that there are no clearly drawn distinctions or boundaries between disciplines. Researchers who represent the Center specialize in the following disciplines: history, art history, literary studies, political and administrative sciences, sociology, civil law studies.<\/p>\n OUTREACH<\/p>\n The Centre\u2019s activities put considerable emphasis on outreach, close cooperation with the public, popularization of research results, organization of seminars and lectures open to the public (including guest lectures by numerous researchers from such countries as Germany, Spain, Great Britain, Ireland, or the USA who have declared their cooperation with the Centre). The far-reaching plans of the Centre include forms of social activation, active participation in debates, discussions, artistic events, science festivals or expert consultations, which allows us to hope for a real impact on the region, its communities, and the whole country.<\/p>\n WHO WE ARE Prof. dr hab.
