| זיכרון וזהות | German-Israel Fund | The goal of Nexus is to support excellent scientific collaboration between German and Israeli scholars and to establish new collaborations for early career scientists. The application process consists of two stages: pre-proposals and full proposals as well as two tracks: Collaborative track and Solo track. The current focal topic is Memories and Identities. During the last decades the terms “memory” and “identity” have been used inflationary, not only in academic disciplines, but also in political struggles.. Especially the term “identity” has been criticized for blurring the boundaries between categories of practice and categories of analysis. To analyze the political and societal usage of both terms, however, is still of utmost importance. | 22/2 (pre-proposal) |
