SFB 1199: Processes of Spatialization under the Global Condition

SFB 1199研究了在全球条件下空间化过程如何变化，以及在现有空间形式被修改并合并为新的空间秩序的同时，新的空间形式是如何由条件下的行为者产生的。为了描述和解释这些变化，我们有（最初）阐述了一个术语，使我们能够区分（1）由每一种社会互动产生的多层次空间化;（2）空间形式，其特点是：（至少中期）建立/重现、制度化、（常规）表现和主体间性反思，并且在实践中建立起来，（描述和可视化）;以及（3）空间顺序，这些类别为我们提供了一个启发式的和可追溯的术语，用这些术语可以连贯地描述过程，尽管在时间和空间上彼此相距甚远/差异很大，并且涉及不同的社会领域，如政治，行政，宗教，健康，文学，科学，消费，移民，犯罪，经济和文化产业。SFB将经验导向的归纳方法与概念和系统导向相结合。在不同的子项目中，我们调查了大量的空间格式在多个世界区域背景下，并在很长一段时间内，从世纪后期的空间秩序的转变。这种结合的方法和调查作为实现SFB的两个主要目标的先决条件：（1）空间格式的系统描述和（2）历史叙事的发展，解释空间秩序如何在全球空间化时代的变化。

The SFB 1199 examines how processes of spatialization change under the global condition and how new spatial formats are produced by the actors underlying the condition while existing spatial for-mats are modified as well as merged into new spatial orders. In order to describe and explain these transformations, we have (initially) elaborated a terminology that allows us to distinguish between(1) the multilayered spatializations resulting from every kind of social interaction;(2) spatial formats, which are characterized by (at least medium-term) establishment/recurrence, institutionalization, (routine) performance, and intersubjective reflection, and which become established in a practice that involves imaginations (descriptions and visualizations); and(3) spatial orders, which are the outcome of negotiation processes involving differing spatial formats.These categories provide us with a heuristic and a descriptory terminology with which processes can be coherently described and explained despite being far from each other/diverging greatly in time and space as well as concerning different social domains such as politics, administration, religion, health, literature, science, consumption, migration, crime, the economy, and the culture industry.The SFB combines an empirically oriented, inductive approach with a conceptual and systematic orientation. In the different subprojects, we investigate a large number of spatial formats in multiple world-regional contexts and the transformation of spatial orders over a long period of time, beginning in the late 18th century. This combined approach and investigation act as the precondition for achieving the SFB’s two main goals:(1) a systematic description of spatial formats and(2) the development of a historical narrative explaining how spatial orders change in times of global respatialization.
