"Stay in Touch" - New Format of the Event Series "Kontroversen" in Times of the Corona Pandemic

In the areas of research, teaching and knowledge transfer, we here at the Department of Political Science work with numerous colleagues around the world. We studied together, got to know each other at conferences and projects, and jointly developed and implemented research ideas. From this experience, friendships have grown that promote interest and appreciation for one another. In times of the Corona pandemic, the borders were quickly closed in Germany, conferences and exchange formats were canceled, business trips abroad were prohibited and joint plans were put on hold.

With our interviews in the "Kontroversen" series, we would like to send a signal for international solidarity and cooperation under the motto "Stay in Touch" in this difficult time for society, politics and science. We continue to maintain our international partnerships. We give voice and face to the effects of the Corona crisis on the everyday life of our partners all over the world. We keep talking and support each other to get through this crisis.
