Introduction

ANCB, in collaboration with the ZEIT-Stiftung, invites protagonists from literature, sociology, arts and civil society for a conversation, a reading or a performance about land and territory, the concepts of ownership and translocation, protection and borders. Some participants will also share their personal experience with exile, transit, inclusion and exclusion, longing and belonging, adding a special voice to these global, challenging and pressing themes.

This series is part of ANCB’s long-term programme Borders and Territories: Identity in Place, discussing the spatial consequences of geopolitical, socio-cultural, economic and ecological aspects of home, displacement, migration and identity in a transdisciplinary dialogue. It also represents a continuation of the project Transit Spaces in collaboration with the ZEIT-Stiftung.

Programme 

Karoline Postel-Vinay, Director of Research, Sciences Po, Paris in conversation with Benjamin Tallis, Policy Officer for Civilian Crisis Management, The European Centre of Excellence for Civilian Crisis Management (CoE), Berlin
In three dialogues within the In Transit series, Benjamin Tallis and his guests look at the connection between people and ‘their’ places and how it affects our sense of belonging and community in terms of inclusion and exclusion. In this third edition, Postel-Vinay and Tallis discuss home as a quest and a privilege, the contestation of public space from the edgelands and the left-behinds, and the possibilities of reshaping narratives to reinvent the city and rediscover the local in times of Covid-19.
