✨ GSSC 系列講座：去殖民理論與全球南方 ——《Dekoloniale Theorien zur Einführung》（2025 Junius）新書發表 ✨
📅 2025 年 12 月 9 日，12:00–13:00
📍 GSSC 3.03 教室
🗣 Frederik Schulze（科隆大學）、Philipp Wolfesberger（比勒費爾德大學）
主持：Silke Hensel 教授（IHILA）
「去殖民化」（Decolonizing）在當代有關全球化、全球權力關係與身分政治的討論中，已成為無所不在的關鍵詞。然而，最初促成此一概念的拉丁美洲與全球南方的政治—哲學論辯，在德國的公共領域中依然 largely 被忽視。於這本最新出版的入門書中，我們嘗試將這些理論轉譯到德語語境，並介紹最重要的去殖民文獻、代表人物與核心概念，同時討論其歷史源流、近年發展，以及其優勢與侷限。
除了介紹 Aníbal Quijano、Enrique Dussel、María Lugones、Rita Segato 等主要思想家外，我們也探討如「權力的殖民性」（coloniality of power）、「性別的殖民性」（coloniality of gender）、「去殖民性」（decoloniality）以及「美好生活」（buen vivir）等重要概念。
在下週的系列講座中，將進一步闡述去殖民理論的主要論點，並聚焦於女性主義視角，以及拉丁美洲、非洲、阿拉伯世界與東亞之間富有生產性的去殖民交流。去殖民理論強調「外部性」（exteriority）及非西方的知識論，將優先位置給予全球南方，並使哲學辯論的中心從西方學術界移轉開來。

✨ GSSC Seminar Series: Decolonial Theories and the Global South: Book Presentation of “Dekoloniale Theorien zur Einführung” (Junius 2025) ✨
📅 09 December 2025, 12:00-13:00 h
📍 Room 3.03, GSSC
🗣 Frederik Schulze (University of Cologne), Philipp Wolfesberger (University of Bielefeld)
Moderation: Prof Dr Silke Hensel (IHILA)
“Decolonizing” is an omnipresent catchword in current discussions about globalization, global power relations, and identity politics, but the political-philosophical debates from Latin America and the Global South that gave rise to this term are still largely ignored by the broader public in Germany. In a recently published introductory book, we translate these theories to a German audience and discuss the most important decolonial works, figures, and concepts as well as their historical origins, current developments, and advantages and problems. In addition to key representatives such as Aníbal Quijano, Enrique Dussel, María Lugones, and Rita Segato, we address important concepts like “coloniality of power,” “coloniality of gender,” “decoloniality,” and “buen vivir”.
In next weeks Seminar Series, the main arguments of decolonial theories and focus then on feminist approaches and the productive decolonial exchange between Latin America, Africa, the Arab world, and East Asia will be explored. With their emphasis on exteriority and non-Western epistemologies, decolonial theories give priority to the Global South and shift the center of philosophical debates away from Western academia.
