10 Apr: Ways of arguing

• how to write an engaging introduction
• how to present arguments for/against sth.
• how to present data clearly

In my talk, I will reflect the perspective and results of the research project and network 'kakanien revisited' as a contribution of an exemplary field of area studies in cultural research. 

In a first step, I will describe all the tools the group has adapted from postcolonial studies: the subversion of the relation between centre and periphery, heterogeneity and identity, the relation between culture and power, the narrative of culture and civilisation, gender aspects, the construction of the 'own' other. In a second part, I will discuss the differences between post-colonialism and post-imperialism, also with regard to the process of nation building. Finally, I will refer to the imperial traces in Austrian literature of the 20th century, e.g. in Roth, Canetti, Musil, Broch, Zweig and others.

How can qualitative interviewing enrich the study of social and political processes in area studies? Does the interview constitute a ¡°personal sphere¡± ¡ª a realm of inter-subjective exchanges of perceptions, or is it a source that provides more than just situational information? How should information obtained through interviewing be organized and presented in a dissertation, and what is the analytical value of a ¡°text-bite¡± in a larger body of text?

With Geir Flikke, Associate Professor, ILOS
