Confererence | Deprovincializing German Racism: Exploring and Teaching Latin American & Global Entanglements, 1500-Present

Ibero-Amerikanisches Institut, Simón Bolívar Hall, Berlin.

Wednesday, 25.02.2026 – Friday, 27.02.2026.

The global turn has challenged nation-bound histories for decades. Earlier accounts traced national attitudes toward others, often as “race thinking”. Global approaches now rethink the nation and national narratives as constructs, proposing that ideas of difference emerged across borders. Little research examines the circulation of racialized ideas between Germany and Latin America. Latin America often appears as a “melting pot,” while Germany is portrayed as concerned with purity. Many now question Latin American ideas of mixing as exclusionary and lacking in global context. European colonial and migration histories, meanwhile, reveal cultural and demographic exchange. Germany is no exception, with rich Indigenous, Asian, and Black German pasts. This conference brings together scholars exploring shared and co-created ideas of race between two regions often studied separately, aiming to share research and discuss public and educational communication, particularly within Germany.

International conference organized by Project GloVib: Global Entanglements of Racial Categorizations: The Iberian Roots of German Racial Thought (16th-20th Century) (external link, opens in a new window), Universität Trier.
