„Sprache unter Zwang“ is an event at Haus der Kulturen der Welt within the programme „Plural Citizenships“ („Zugehörigkeit im Werden“), which brings together talks, readings, conversations and performances. The programme is run by Haus der Kulturen der Welt as part of „heimaten“, asking what citizenship means when promises such as protection, participation and belonging no longer hold unconditionally. It brings together writers, poets, translators and thinkers to sound out the limits of belonging and imagine new forms of living together.
