Kolonisator:innen und Kolonisierte im Zwiegespräch: „Koloniale Agitation" in den Ostprovinzen des Deutschen Reiches. (German)

At the end of the nineteenth century, the eastern provinces of the German Empire were gradually constructed as colonial spaces that, because of their Polish character, begged for a German cultural mission. At the same time, however, they became sites of colonial agitation for further colonial projects. The ideas of internal and external colonization thus met and challenged each other. This tension, which emerged in the triangle between "colonial agitation" for the various colonization projects, "colonial subjectivation" of the Polish population, and their "colonial emancipation", is examined here in terms of what the making and remaking of "colonial" self and others looked like and how it influenced German-Polish relations, as well as how "coloniality" was determined by historical actors and what fears and hopes were reflected by these processes.
