englischIn times of globalisation and digitalisation, the examination of processes of transformation in the arts is of particular relevance; for their creative minds are advancing to become decisive agents of change. The editors and contributors to this publication address the subject of transformation both theoretically and through concrete case studies, using cultural practices and artistic processes as examples. It is about Europe, Germany and France, it is about theatre and film, about internal and external cultural politics, and above all it is about developments in a civil society's self-understanding of cultural diversity. In the examination of social transformation processes in which art and culture play a decisive role, this international volume of the German-French doctoral programme "Kulturvermittlung / Médiation culturelle de l'art" of the University of Hildesheim and the Aix-Marseille Université enables cultural-sociological as well as socio-political observations, analyses and reflections of the researched transformation processes in its different approaches and in the composition of the authorship. Geographically, they range from Brazil, to France, Belgium, to Germany, to Eastern Europe and to the Mediterranean region (Tunisia, Lebanon, Palestine); in terms of content, they deal with questions of identity in Europe, forms of memory and urban development processes as well as the use of new technologies and discuss the necessary consequences in the arts. The University of Hildesheim and the Aix-Marseille Université have been cooperating since 2001, thanks to funding from the Franco-German University, with the establishment of a joint Franco-German degree programme in Cultural Mediation / Médiation culturelle des arts in Cultural Studies, which has been supplemented since 2013 by the establishment of a Franco-German doctoral college.
