Inhalt: Conspiracy theories are no longer a marginal phenomenon – they have become a central element of reactionary political propaganda in Europe and also in Germany. In this seminar, we will examine how these narratives are deliberately used to deepen social divisions and undermine democratic processes. Using current political developments both globally and in Germany, we will analyse the role conspiracy theories play in the political landscape. In the exercise, time will be spent defining and understanding key concepts for conspiracy theory analysis: What defines a narrative as conspiratorial? Why do conspiracy theories exist? What is the relationship between conspiracy theories and political myths?
