Workshop des Teilprojekts A06 im Sonderforschungsbereich/Transregio 138 „Dynamiken der Sicherheit“
Date: June 16–17, 2025
Venue: Cracow, University of the National Education Commission, Instytut Historii i Archiwistyki, ul. Podchorążych 2, 30-084 Kraków, room 337, 3rd floor
Securitization of the national other was key for nation building processes in multi-ethnic and -lingual contexts and formed thus the frame for nationalizing politics and the reference to other factors like language and religion. Within the discourses on potential security problems due to multilingualism and multi-ethnicity, minority rights in particular played a central role.
The workshop will discuss how the national, denominational and / or lingual “other” was made and perceived as a threat to the own nationality. Own national interests by securitizing politics, practices or “only” discourses to the detriment of another national group. The workshop ties up the research of the sub-project A 06 during the funding phases 1–3 and discusses the conceptional framework of research on local and regional entities particularly in late Habsburg and Russian Empire. As particular focus is put on multi-ethnic cities and industrial cities.
