The workshop series aims to jointly read and discuss central theoretical texts within our research group. For this purpose, we have compiled a reader containing some basic texts. The workshop series is based on an event that we have already successfully conducted in 2016 in the first funding period. In times of Covid 19 we now want to try to rekindle the stimulating theoretical discussions on experience and expectation by an online format. The offer is mainly aimed at the new PhDs, postdocs and PIs in the SPP. But of course everybody is welcome to join the discussion. The reader is available on request from Laetitia Lenel.
