Nominator's project description

Professor Schriewer is an important representative of the field of cultural anthropology and European ethnology. His research focuses on theoretical and empirical questions on ways of life and work, on Europe, on migrations and mobilities, and on ecology. He represents a decidedly transnational perspective and deals, among other things, with the question of a European identity. During his stay in Germany, he will focus on research into the culture of remembrance and cultural heritage.
