The Centre's research programme currently comprises seven interdisciplinary
projects, with twenty researchers working on different historical
and cultural aspects of the "Modern Orient" since the
18th century. They explore the translocal movements of people,
goods, symbols and ideas between the areas of the non-Western
world and to Europe.
