Abstract
One hundred ten professors from the University of Bonn have come together in a unique endeavor to refresh the academic reflection on key words, conceptual notions, and symbolizations widely used in humanities and cultural studies under conditions of the global turn. Globality frames the perspective the authors from one of Europe’s leading research universities have taken as a starting point to reassess the impact of ongoing global transformations on the scholarly interpretation of the main aspects of human life—personally and socially. The Bonn Handbook of Globality offers an anthropological perspective bringing together scholars from diverse disciplines who demonstrate the meaning and possibilities of universitas today.
