The new center?

TRAWOS Institute and partners invite you to a joint conference on right-wing movements in Europe from September 17 to 19.

As a cooperation partner of the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum Dresden, the TRAWOS Institute for Transformation, Housing and Social Spatial Development of the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences invites you to a joint conference with the Federal Agency for Civic Education, the Mercator Forum Migration and Democracy at the TU Dresden, the Institute for Communication Science at the TU Dresden, the Kulturbüro Sachsen e.V. and the Catholic Academy of the Diocese of Dresden-Meißen.

"The new center? Right-wing ideologies and movements in Europe"
from September 17 to 19, 2018 at the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum Dresden.

The threat from the right has become much more diverse and divergent. It is no longer just violent neo-Nazis who are working on a renewal of the German Reich; national-conservative right-wing populists and ethnic nationalists, identitarians and Reich citizens are also agitating against the Federal Republic of Germany, each with their own concepts, goals and strategies.

The aim of the conference is to address the diversity of the new right and at the same time look for the unifying elements: What ideologies form the set pieces for the different models of explaining the world and what common goals link the various fields of action on the right-wing fringes of society? How do social transformation processes influence the approval and rejection of these explanatory models and movements? What interactions exist between societies and the right-wing spectrum through media reporting and media networking?

With a wide range of lectures and workshops, the conference is primarily aimed at those who are confronted with these challenges in their professional and private contexts. At the conference, they will receive background information on the individual players and structures and learn about strategies for their daily work.

The conference program and further information can be found here or at TRAWOS.

Here you can find part 1 and part 2 of the information flyer.

The conference fee is 60 euros / reduced 40 euros for pupils, students up to the age of 35, trainees, persons in federal voluntary service or FSJ, recipients of ALG II and holders of the annual museum ticket.
The conference is also listed in the sächs. Training online catalog for educators under the event number EXT04294.

Registration is still possible at short notice at veranstaltungen(at)dhmd.de.
