SUMMARY:What Trauma Tells Us About Ourselves as Nations – A Discussion with Asal Dardan and Karolina Wigura
DESCRIPTION:Invi­ta­tion\nWhat Trauma Tells Us About Our­sel­ves as Nations -\nA Dis­cus­sion with Asal Dardan and Karo­lina Wigura\nDate: Monday\, 24. Novem­ber 2025\nTime: 06 p.m. – 8 p.m.\nPlace: Polish Insti­tute in Berlin\, Burg­straße 27\, 10178 Berlin \n  \nDo trau­ma­tic experi­ences shape nations and socie­ties? If so\, how? In the case of Poland\, histo­rical traumas seem to leave Poles fearful\, anxious\, and unhappy. Yet\, in moments of crisis\, these traumas enable them to mobi­lize and prepare to fight. Germany’s history of vio­lence against ethnic and social groups has perma­nently raised ques­ti­ons about vic­tim­hood\, guilt\, and belonging. \nHistory shapes our contem­porary relati­onships\, obses­sions\, and fears. What causes this\, and how can one break free from it? Are we doomed to con­stantly remind our­sel­ves of our dif­fi­cult history? Is trauma passed down through genera­tions? What does trauma reveal about Poles and Germans? What unites and divides us? How has history shaped our daily beha­vi­ors\, fears\, and obses­sions? During the debate\, Asal Dardan and Karo­lina Wigura will address these ques­ti­ons. Katha­rina Blum­berg-Stan­kie­wicz will mode­rate the evening. \nAsal Dardan is a free­lance essay­ist and writer. She holds degrees in cul­tu­ral studies from the Uni­ver­sity of Hil­des­heim and in Middle Eastern studies from the Uni­ver­sity Lund. Her 2021 coll­ec­tion of essays Reflec­tions of a Bar­ba­rian (Hoff­mann und Campe\, 2022) explo­res topics such as origin\, exclu­sion\, racism\, and femin­inity. In her recent book Trau­ma­land: Sear­ching for Traces in Germany’s Past and Present (Rohwolt\, 2025) she con­fronts ent­ren­ched German dis­cour­ses on memory. \nDr. habil. Karo­lina Wigura is a his­to­rian of ideas\, socio­logist\, and jour­na­list. She is member of the Board of Kultura Libe­ralna Foun­da­tion\, based in Warsaw\, and a Senior Fellow of the Center for Liberal Moder­nity\, based in Berlin. Wigura is also lec­tu­rer at Warsaw University’s Insti­tute of Socio­logy and focuses on the poli­ti­cal philo­sophy of the 20th century and emo­ti­ons in poli­tics\, as well as socio­logy and ethics of memory\, parti­cu­larly transi­tional justice\, histo­rical guilt\, and recon­ci­liation. Wigura was awarded fellow­ships at Insti­tute of Advan­ced Studies in Berlin\, Robert Bosch Academy\, Insti­tute of Human Sci­en­ces in Vienna\, German Mar­shall Fund\, and St. Antony’s College at Uni­ver­sity of Oxford. In 2008\, she recei­ved the Grand Press prize for her inter­view with Jürgen Haber­mas “Europe in death para­ly­sis.” Wigura is the author of „Posttrau­ma­tische Souve­rä­nität”\, „Endo. Sztuka akcept­acji choroby“\, „Polka atei­stka kontra Polak katolik“\, „Wynalazek nowoc­zesnego serca“. Her work has also been published in The Guar­dian\, The New York Times\, Neue Zuer­cher Zeitung\, Gazeta Wybor­cza\, and other periodicals. \nKatha­rina Blum­berg-Stan­kie­wicz\, has been a rese­ar­cher and lec­tu­rer at the Euro­pean Uni­ver­sity Via­drina in Frank­furt (Oder) focu­sing on migra­tion\, in- and exclu­sion\, and belon­ging. She lives and works as a free­lance cul­tu­ral sci­en­tist in Berlin\, where she co-founded the initia­tive Between the Poles. Since 2022\, she has co-curated the colla­bo­rative online repo­si­tory Trauma Tables vs. Waiting. \nWe are looking forward to a timely dis­cus­sion with you! \nBest regards\,\nYour LibMod-Team\nt \nSpon­so­red by \n \n
