E) AWARDS

---> Hans Kilian Award of Merit for the Research and Advancement of 
Metacultural Humanisation.

The Hans Kilian Award of Merit, which is announced for the first time in 
2010, honours outstanding scientific achievements in the study field of 
the historical and cultural existence of mankind and the corresponding 
alteration of the human psyche. The Award owes its name to Professor Dr. 
Hans Kilian, whose interdisciplinary concept of metacultural 
humanisation encompasses numerous historical, anthropological, 
sociological, psychological and psychoanalytic inquiries into the most 
pressing problems of a rapidly changing world.

This call for submissions is addressed foremost to scientists and 
researchers who, in their theoretical, methodical and empirical works, 
have been creatively transcending the borders between disciplines and 
cultures, bringing forth productive syntheses between these previously 
isolated areas of knowledge. The addressed inter- and transdisciplinary 
perspectives bring together theories, methods and data from psychology 
and psychoanalysis, psychiatry and other medical sciences, sociology, 
history, social and cultural anthropology as well as from other 
disciplines of social and cultural study. A special consideration shall 
be given to the exploration of historical and (inter-/trans-) cultural 
dimensions.

The value of the Award constitutes 80,000 Euros. The first conferment of 
this international award will take place in 2011 and thereupon 
biennially. The Foundation invites universities as well as renowned 
cultural and academic associations throughout the world to nominate 
eligible candidates. Self-nominations are possible.
