Dr. Lion König, Associate Researcher of the Cluster "Asia and Europe", has been awarded a fellowship by the German Research Council (DFG) to carry out postdoctoral research at Oxford University. He will be based at the Asian Studies Centre at St. Anthony’s College for a period of two years to work on nation-building in South Asia. His new project looks at larger fundamentals of nation-building from a theoretical, an institutional, and an iconographic perspective, using India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka as case studies. König has pursued his PhD within the Graduate Programme for Transcultural Studies (GPTS).
