Biological Stations around 1900: Organisational Forms, Practices and Paradigms of ‘Localized Internationality’

Around 1900, biological field stations were founded all over Europe, including the Habsburg Monarchy. The aim of this conference is to gain a better understanding of the individual stations and their role as local hubs in the production and international circulation of biological knowledge. Following a comparative approach, the interrelationship between organizational models, institutional practices, scientific significance and forms of internationality will be discussed – not least against the background of today's modes of global knowledge production.
