Furthermore, the course examines the way in which critical and creative practices approach and reshape the understanding and perception of globalisation and postcolonial processes of today. The theoretical and empirical material is addressed from three different perspectives: Postcoloniality and Memory, Creative Processes in the Middle East and Disputed Spaces.
