The Transregional Center for Democratic Studies - TCDS’s transregional and cross-departmental research and study programs, conducted both at home and abroad, bring together civic-minded students, junior and senior scholars, and civil society actors from various regional contexts. Our activities — region-based institutes, workshops, conferences, talks, and fellowships — are designed to further strengthen social and human capital, i.e., individuals and organizations concerned with the promise and sustainability of democracy. Our flagship projects have been the annual Democracy & Diversity Graduate Summer Institutes (held in Poland since 1991 and also in South Africa from 1999 to 2015), aimed at a rigorous quest for a more textured understanding of the precariousness of democracy as it arises almost everywhere.
Transregional Dialogues: Rethinking the Past – Re-imagining the Future is a new future-oriented fellowship program for doctoral students from Ukraine whose work, disrupted by war, needs support. The aim of the Program, which will take place in the Fall of 2022, is to create conditions that would allow participating fellows to continue working on their projects, which will be of particular importance as soon as the war ends.
Transregional Dialogues is designed as a set of semester-long collaborative online activities between Ukrainian scholars – whether in Ukraine or temporally displaced by the war – and their international peers from the New School for Social Research who are working on similar sets of issues. The program aims to create a vibrant collaborative environment arranged through working groups, work-in-progress seminars, guest lectures, faculty advising, and participation in wider New School activities such as the Memory Studies Group, the Democracy Seminar, and others.
Fellows will represent the social sciences and humanities broadly understood, and commit themselves to a semester-long program of exploration and cross-examination of one of these four broad themes: The Condition of Postcoloniality; the Politics of Belonging; Democracy and its Variants; and Citizenship: the Dynamics of Inclusion and Exclusion.
Although this is a four-month program, it is designed to create a durable community of young scholars from different parts of the world with connections and interactions that will last well beyond December 2022.
Committed to amplifying diverse voices, The New School offers more than a thousand public programs and events each year, providing fresh perspectives and unique learning opportunities.
