Yet the global shift toward decarbonization is not merely a technological substitution of oil with lithium, coal with hydrogen, combustion engines with batteries. It is a profound civilizational transition, a new Sattelzeit in the sense of Reinhart Koselleck, reshaping how societies imagine, produce, circulate, and live with raw materials. The K\u00e4te Hamburger Kolleg \u201eRohstoffwelten \u2013 Kulturen im Umbruch\u201c takes this epochal transformation as its starting point. Funded by the German Federal Ministry of Research, Technology, and Space (BMFTR), the K\u00e4te Hamburger Kolleg is conceived as an international and interdisciplinary research center dedicated to the cultural, political, and social dimensions of global material transformations. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-kassel.de\/forschung\/rohstoffwelten-kulturen-im-umbruch.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Further information<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] The German Middle East Studies Association (DAVO) hereby announces the\u00a0DAVO Dissertation Award 2026\u00a0and invites applications.
