2. Current Projects
From South to North: The Circulation of Latin American Dependency Theories in Germany and France
Sociological research into the transregional north-south circulation of knowledge in the social sciences and humanities has tended to have a unidirectional bias to date. The standard assumption is that as a result of globalization, theories and methods are spread from the global north to the global south. Based on this premise, many of the studies of circulation focus on the transfer of knowledge in terms of ideas, traditions, authors, and concepts from the north to the south. Thus far, little attention has been paid to a central issue in this debate, namely that there is a lack of studies devoted to the transregional circulation of theoretical approaches (Southern Theories) from the south to the north and their influence on the transformation of the European social sciences and Area Studies. My project addresses precisely this gap, analysing the circulation of knowledge from the south to the north, using the example of the circulation of Latin American dependency theories in (West) Germany and France. Focusing on this little-explored orientation regarding the circulation of ideas, the present research project breaks with the narrow approach of present research into transregional circulation of knowledge. The focus is on the political sciences, political economy and sociology within Latin American Studies and development research, fields that have dealt intensively with problems of development and underdevelopment, poverty, marginality, violence and dependency from the late 1960s until today. The circulation of the dependency theories is examined through processes of translation, application, transformation, and rejection, taking into account the respective socio-political contexts. The entangled inequalities of knowledge circulation between the north and the south are analysed, and the question of whether asymmetries are produced or reproduced in this process or whether a transformation of these structures has taken place is discussed.
