Zentralinstitut Lateinamerika-Institut – Drittmittelprojekt IGK Temporalities of Future

The IRTG aims at developing a new perspective to explore temporalities of the future within the humanities and the social sciences. The emerging field of research is expanded to include the two dimensions of global interconnectedness and cultural heterogeneity that characterise Latin America. The focus on the aspirations and anticipations of various actors whose interactions produce new temporalities of the future offers an innovative research approach and a necessary inclusion of subaltern and non- Western practices. The cooperation with Mexican institutions allows a multi-pronged investigation of temporalities of the future in colonial, postcolonial and contemporary Latin America and promotes their joint empirical and theoretical exploration within an innovative interdisciplinary framework.
