主讲内容：

Performative social science is often closely linked to critical theory; then it is tied to social critique, to the struggle for social justice and takes an explicitly ethical and political perspective. I would like to show why it is relevant to place the aesthetic dimension at the center of qualitative research and what innovative and socially critical potential this can entail. This opens up a new field of research, which has its roots in the philosophy of Wilhelm Dilthey, the anthropology of Victor Turner and in critical theory. The focus is on the representation of subjects' experiences in specific spatiotemporal contexts. This should help to illustrate the different and unique ways in which the world can be experienced and critically transformed. The aim is to open up new ways of perception, interpretation and knowledge (Gergen/Gergen 2012, p. 49) and to change the world.
