Research areas

Düllo represents the position of a communication culture science. Düllo's academic career is characterized by the conception and responsibility for courses of study, teaching formats, research and publications that are hybrid . Hybrid in cooperation with other specialist areas such as logistics , knowledge management , architecture or strategic management . Hybrid but also in the use of non-canonical sources of knowledge to describe and research change, innovations, socio-cultural resonance spaces. So Düllo not only asks the specialist discourses, but also music clips , comics , films , advertising , literary narrations in various formats about what provides insights. Based on the New Historicism of Stephan Greenblatt, it is about negotiations with contexts - in contemporary and historical perspectives. Düllo describes this concept as “ writing culture as doing culture ”.

The research areas in which Düllo moves with this conception are text, context & narration; Practice approaches and practice theory; Materiality of communication; the knowledge of literature; cultural studies consumer research; Readings of urban space & popular culture; Transformation research; Cultural Innovation and Strategic Cultivation.
