Events
We aim to develop the Halle-Jena-Leipzig university network into an internationally visible centre of Polish studies. This is to be achieved in particular through interdisciplinary events, but also through subject-specific discussions. In addition, some of our activities are aimed at the interested public, to whom we would like to bring Polish history, language, society and culture closer.
The academic events include regular colloquia, conferences, workshops and lecture series, and in the long term also summer schools. For students we offer block seminars, which are an integral part of the Interdisciplinary Polish Studies programme, as well as excursions to Poland.
A Polish film series in cooperation with the Polish Institute Leipzig, the Imre Kertész Kolleg Jena, the Puschkino in Halle, the German-Polish Society Saxony-Anhalt and the Saxony-Anhalt State Centre for Political Education has a broader public impact. The films in these series as well as future readings of Polish literature are thematically related to the research fields of the centre.
Colloquia

Martina Berrocal (Jena)/Nadine Thielemann (Wien): From Green Deal to grim deal – Public campaigning between corporate spin and nationalism in Poland
26/1/2023, 15:00 (s.t.), in presence at FSU Jena, Carl-Zeiss-Straße 3, SR 385, 07743 Jena
Climate policies, such as the EU’s Green Deal, pose serious challenges to the operations of energy companies, especially those that are strongly dependent on fossil fuels. This lecture is based on a joint study that explores the case of a Polish energy company PGE that operates a lignite mine in the Czech-Polish borderlands. Methodologically, the study is based on a combination of content and frame analysis.
In a public affairs campaign, PGE aimed to challenge the constraints imposed by the EU Green Deal and a CURIA (Court of justice of the EU) order to cease mining operations. In a skilfully designed corporate propaganda, PGE re-frames the Green Deal and delegitimizes the European institution so that the message ties in with anti-EU sentiments and thus establishes a viable connection to the conservative Polish public and the Eurosceptic right-wing politicians.
