OSTRAKON - AIE'S NEW OPEN ACCESS SMALL-FORMAT IMPRINT Academy in Exile announces the publication of the first issue of Ostrakon, AiE’s new open access small-format imprint. Its first issue, X-ist, edited by AiE fellow Ahmad Moradi, is inspired by a collaborative art project on the ways in which nature and imaging technologies like x-rays record the perils of crossing Europe's external borders (Moradi and Hassanzadeh 2017). The essays in X-ist take their cue from the art project and engage with the intricacies of borders and what they give rise to or deny.

Academy in Exile provides a forum for reflecting on the pressing challenges to intellectual life, critical thinking, reason, social justice and diversity that are facing us today and that define the parameters of academy freedom. Academy in Exile fellowships afford scholars the opportunity to continue their careers in Germany and to work on a research project of their own choosing in a multidisciplinary environment. Fellows contribute to and shape the research agenda and intellectual profile of the Academy generally. Academy in Exile was founded in 2017 as a joint initiative of the Institute for Turkish Studies at the University of Duisburg-Essen, the Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities (KWI) Essen and the Forum Transregionale Studien Berlin. The Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin and the Volkswagen Foundation provided the start-up funding. IIE-SRF and the Freudenberg Foundation granted further funding. Since early 2019, Academy in Exile hosts a new cohort of scholars at the Freie Universität Berlin with support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. FELLOWSHIPS Academy in Exile is based on a proven model that creates multidisciplinary cohorts of scholars around a unified theme, with the aim of enabling persecuted scholars to collaborate with each other. As of April 2022, a total of 56 scholars were awarded with long-term fellowships of 12 to 24 months or with short-term emergency stipends of three months. ONLINE COURSES Online courses developed by Academy in Exile are being co-authored by scholars banished from academic life in their home countries. Across borders and disciplines, scholars collaborate to shape widely accessible, pioneering pedagogical tools for higher education. The first courses were offered online in 2019. All course videos can be accessed here. CONFERENCES AND WORKSHOPS Academy in Exile creates public fora for the dissemination of its intellectual work. An inaugural international conference was held in October 18-19, 2018 at the Kulturwissenschaftliches Institut in Essen (KWI) on the topic of “Exile and Academic Freedom Today”. A diverse audience of scholars, students, and members of the public shared theoretical and personal insights into exile and reported on threats to academic freedom around the globe. The conference also created a particular synergy for identifying gaps in the existing support mechanisms for exiled scholars, and for discussing new models of support such as the one provided by Academy in Exile. Click here for the conference program. Academy in Exile hosted a second international conference on “Critical Thinking” on January 16 and 17, 2020 at Freie Universität Berlin.

PUBLICATIONS Academy in Exile started a series with transcript to publish monographs and edited volumes, edited by Vanessa Agnew (Universität Duisburg-Essen/ The Australian National University), Kader Konuk (Universität Duisburg-Essen), and Egemen Özbek (Universität Duisburg-Essen). The first volume of the series entitled Refugee Routes (2020) is edited by Vanessa Agnew, Kader Konuk, and Jane O. Newman (University of California Irvine).
