専門はドイツ近現代史、とりわけ第二帝政期の植民地における「熱帯医療」や当時アフリカなどで盛んに研究された「形質人類学」の歴史に関心があります。従来ドイツ植民地の過去は、その統治期間の短さや、本国に占める「コロニアルなもの」の重要度の低さが影響して、歴史家の関心を充分に惹起するものではありませんでした。しかし植民地統治期にドイツの医学者は、現地に蔓延する感染症を熱心に調べ、また住民の「人種的特徴」を科学的に描き出そうとしていました。彼らは各国研究者と協力しながら、「熱帯」を「知る＝支配する」ことを目論んだのです。さらにこうした医学者は、ナチ期に入ると植民地でのキャリアが評価され、本国の感染症学や人種衛生学の「重鎮」となっていきます。彼らが植民地で何をし、またその後に本国でどのような地位に就いたのか。ドイツ植民地史が投げかける問題は、我々により一層の学問的取り組みを求めているのではないでしょうか。さらにそれは他の植民地列強とのグローバルな比較―イギリスやフランスだけでなく、ドイツと同様「遅れてきた植民地帝国」としての道を歩んだ日本との比較―の方法へと開かれていくでしょう。

    "Antiziganism" in our research project is an analytical concept which has been adapted from the historical concept of Antisemitism (Antijudaism as a racial theory). In the case of Antiziganism, it denotes a particular hostility against "zigeuner" ("Gypsies"), an ethnic minority properly referred to as Sinti/Roma. This may take several forms (e.g. consciousness, discourse, behavior) based upon not only group-specific prejudices but also a limited understanding of a modern state or a modern mainstream society. A variety of historical events will be analyzed by this concept of Antiziganism which penetrates the including and excluding logic of a changing civil society and reflects its self-image, especially when this involves the distinction to the others (i.e. "zigeuner") in those events.

    In this research project is to assess how the German colonial history affected the post-colonial society of the German Empire. Specifically, the career of those anthropologists and physicians should be shown who began their research activities in the overseas colonies in their younger years and took up a leading position in the academic guild on ground of their colonial experience in Weimar and Nazi era. For this research purpose, numerous historical documents, including especially the colonial documents prepared by the above-mentioned scientists and their scientific works, were collected and analyzed at the Bundesarchiv or the Staatsbibliothek in Berlin.Now the research results should be made known, which could not be fully put into practice during the research period. This includes above all, to publish a research monograph or to make a presentation at scientific conferences.
