    Abstract: Das vorliegende Working Paper fasst die Ergebnisse des Teilprojektes „Bewohner*innenschaft und Migration“ zusammen, das Teil des BMBF-geförderten Verbundprojektes „Vom Stadtumbauschwerpunkt zum Einwanderungsquartier? (StadtumMig, Laufzeit 2019-2022, BMBF-FKZ 01UR1802C)“ war. Das Projekt untersuchte Ankommensprozesse von Geflüchteten in drei ostdeutschen Großwohnsiedlungen in Schwerin, Halle(Saale) und Cottbus seit 2014/15 und nahm dabei insbesondere Fragen des lokalen Zusammenlebens, des Ressourcenzugangs und der Bleibeperspektiven von Geflüchteten in den Blick.
    Abstract: This working paper summarizes the results of the sub-project "Residents and Migration", which was part of the BMBF-funded joint project "From Demolition to Immigration? (StadtumMig, 2019-2022, BMBF-FKZ 01UR1802C)". The project examined the arrival processes of refugees in three large East German housing estates in Schwerin, Halle(Saale) and Cottbus since 2014/15, focusing in particular on questions of local coexistence, access to resources and the prospects for refugees to stay.

    Abstract: The article explores how sport-related research contributes to the construction and reproduction of immigrants and their descendants as ‘Others’. This process, referred to as ‘Othering’ in this paper, is to be understood as a hegemonic act of ascribing otherness to social groups, marking them as being essentially different, generalising these alleged differences and transferring this alleged otherness into inferiority. This paper elaborates on this process of Othering theoretically and empirically. Qualitative content analysis of sport-related German-language academic publications enables an investigation of how researchers deal with social constructs of difference, such as ‘immigrant’, ‘migrant’ or ‘migrant background’, as well as revealing whether and how Othering occurs in their publications. As a result, this article demonstrates that Othering is found in a substantial number of academic publications. Furthermore, it exemplifies and discusses how the various forms of Othering manifest themselves at different stages in the research process.

    Abstract: While recent literature in Germany has compared predictors of welfare use between EU and non-EU immigrants, refugees have yet to be added to the analysis. Using survey data of approximately 4,000 immigrants living in Germany, I examine the determinants of basic unemployment benefits receipt for intra-EU immigrants, refugees, and third country immigrants. In particular, I investigate how education affects the likelihood of welfare use for each immigrant group. Even after controlling for human capital factors, sociodemographic characteristics, and factors related to migration such as legal status and age at migration, refugees remain significantly more likely to receive benefits. Results demonstrate that higher education significantly decreases the likelihood of welfare receipt for EU and third country immigrants, but much less so for refugees. These findings may indicate that refugees' education is not being used to its full potential in the labor market or that they face additional challenges hindering their labor market integration. A further and unanticipated finding is that immigrants who hold permanent residency or German citizenship are less likely to receive unemployment benefits, pointing either to positive effects of a secure residency or selection into permanent residency and citizenship among those with the greatest labor market success. Overall, this research shows that challenges beyond human capital deficiencies and sociodemographic characteristics must be considered when studying immigrants' receipt of social benefits, that not all educational credentials are valued equally, and that the experiences of refugees differ in significant ways from those of other immigrant groups.

    Abstract: We use the concept of the ‘monster’ in this article as an analytical tool to grasp a variety of persons who – understood to be criminals in their countries of residence, and living with or thought to be particularly vulnerable to HIV – are perceived as threats from across the European region. Building on the field of monster studies, we focus here on strategies undertaken to shift the ‘monstrous’ towards the ‘human’ along what we describe as monster–human continuums. Relying on ethnographic fieldwork from Germany, Poland and Greece, four case studies examine processes of (re-)humanisation in the fields of migration, prisons, drug use and sex work that emerge at the intersections of humanitarianism, public health, human rights and citizenship. In particular, we propose that these strategies can entail the production of dissimilar forms of political subjectivity, the redistribution of responsibility or vulnerability and a reshuffling of blame within the moral economy of innocence and guilt – strategies that produce particular norms and forms of the human. These strategies, moreover, involve the normalisation or suppression of ‘abnormal’, ‘irrational’ or ‘guilty’ dimensions of criminalised subjects, thereby taming their capacity to confuse or confront societies’ worldviews, and ultimately foreclosing the possibility to imagine a being-in-the-world otherwise. We thus conclude by asking how embracing the monstrous might facilitate the navigation of cultural, social and moral anxieties that leave room for complex and conflicting practices and subjectivities.

    Abstract: Migration wird oft als soziales Problem dargestellt, das mit Benachteiligungen einhergeht. Allerdings hat die Migrationsforschung in den letzten Jahren gezeigt, dass Migration sich u.a. durch Klasse, Geschlecht und Ethnizität ausdifferenziert. Diese Studie fokussiert auf das Konzept der sozialen Klasse. Die Studie schlägt vor, Mobilität als Ressource zu betrachten, die in der Gesellschaft ungleichmäßig verteilt ist. Wie beeinflusst die soziale Klasse der Migrant_innen ihre räumliche Mobilität und die Art und Weise, wie sie mit Migrationsregimen interagieren? Wie beeinflusst ihre Mobilität die Prozesse von Klassenformation, in denen sie während der Migration involviert werden? Die Analyse erfolgt durch die Untersuchung der Migrationsgeschichten von jungen italienischen Migrant_innen, die seit 2008 nach Berlin zugewandert sind. Sie basiert auf einem Mix an Methoden, bzw. einer Online-Umfrage, 40 Interviews, drei Fokus-Gruppen und zahlreichen teilnehmenden Beobachtungen. Erstens untersucht der theoretische Teil die Entwicklung des Konzeptes der sozialen Klasse und deckt die Leerstellen der Klassenforschung auf. Zweitens wird im empirischen Teil den Zugang italienischer Migrant_innen zu Wohnen und Arbeit in Berlin untersucht. Schließlich beweist die Studie, dass das Regime der „freien“ EU-Binnenmigration wohl durch die Entstehung von Grenzen auf lokaler Ebene gekennzeichnet ist. Nach der Analyse scheint dieses Regime eher eine Lebensführung zu favorisieren, in der permanente Mobilisierung der eigenen Arbeitskraft notwendig ist. Die Studie bestätigt, dass Mobilität als Ressource zu betrachten ist, die zunehmend relevant für den Lebensunterhalt ist, und plädiert deshalb dafür, eine kritische Perspektive auf Migration zu entwickeln, die den Fokus auf die Frage nach der Kontrolle und Eigentum von Mobilität setzt.
    Abstract: Migration has been studied for long time as a social problem, both for migrants and for sending and destination countries. However, research shows that migration has become increasingly differentiated along social, economic, gender and cultural lines. The present study unravels the concept of migration by introducing social class as a crucial intervening variable. It suggests considering mobility as an income-generating resource unevenly distributed across the population. How does the social class of migrants affect their mobility and the ways how it is incorporated into a migration regime? How is mobility related to processes of class formation in contemporary capitalism? The study focusses on the case of young Italian migrants who moved to Berlin after the economic crisis of 2008. Firstly, it tackles the rise, decline and renaissance of the class concept, showing the blind spots of class analysis. Secondly, the empirical part, based on a web survey, 40 interviews, 3 focus groups and several participant observations, explains how Italian migrants access resources in Berlin developing a life conduct predicated on mobility. The imperative to move spills over from the domain of spatial mobility into the domain of work, with the refusal of doing the same job “forever”, and into that of reproduction, with the construction of flexible forms of emotional engagement. The research highlights how newcomers enter processes of social differentiation on the housing and labor market. Endless mobilization of young labour force appears as the main policy goal for the governance of intra-EU migration. The analysis finally suggests considering mobility as a class-related resource, whose ownership and control should become a crucial issue for the understanding of contemporary societies.

    Abstract: The article takes the surprising exit of the food delivery platform Deliveroo from Berlin as a starting point to analyse the relationship between migration and the gig economy. In Berlin and many cities across the globe, migrant workers are indispensable to the operations of digital platforms such as Uber, Helpling, or Deliveroo. The article uses in-depth ethnographic and qualitative research to show how the latter's exit from Berlin provides an almost exemplary picture of why urban gig economy platforms are strongholds of migrant labour, while at the same time, demonstrating the very contingency of this form of work. The article analyses the specific reasons why digital platforms are particularly open to migrants and argues that the very combination of new forms of algorithmic management and hyper-flexible forms of employment that is characteristic of gig economy platforms is also the reason why these platforms are geared perfectly toward the exploitation of migrant labour. This allows the analysis of digital platforms in the context of stratified labour markets and situates them within a long history of contingent labour that is closely intertwined with the mobility of labour.

    Abstract: Der Bericht gibt einen Überblick über die Ergebnisse des Projekts „Nachbarschaften des Willkommens", das zwischen 2017 und 2021 die Bedingungen für sozialen Zusammenhalt in Nachbarschaften mit zunehmender Diversität durch Fluchtmigration erforscht hat. Dabei ging das Projekt der Frage nach, wo Vorstellungen und Praktiken des sozialen Zusammenhalts vorherrschen, die auch neue Bewohner_innen und Nutzer_innen mit Fluchthintergrund inkludieren, und wo dies nicht der Fall ist. In diesem Kontext fragte das Projekt insbesondere danach, wo Geflüchtete, die im Quartier wohnen oder es nutzen, Zugänge zu zentralen Res- sourcen wie Wohnraum, Unterstützung, Teilhabe und Mitbestimmung erhalten und wie diese Zugänge lokal ausgehandelt, entschieden und gelebt werden. Diese Fragen wurden in vier Nachbarschaften untersucht, die unterschiedliche sozioökonomische Zusammensetzungen so- wie unterschiedlich ausgeprägte Migrationsgeschichten aufweisen.
    Abstract: The report provides an overview of the results of the project Nachbarschaften des Willkommens (“Welcoming Neighbourhoods”), which from 2017 to 2021 researched the conditions of social cohesion in neighbourhoods with increasing diversity due to refugee migration. In doing so, the project explored the question of where ideas and practices of social cohesion that include new refugee residents and users prevail, and where this is not the case. In this context, a leading research question was where refugees living in or using a neighbourhood gain access to key resources such as housing, support, and participation, and how access to these resources is negotiated, decided, and lived locally. These questions were studied in four neighbourhoods which have different socio-economic compositions and migration histories.

    Abstract: Empirical studies show that first- and second-generation immigrants are less likely to be members of sports clubs than their non-immigrant peers. Common explanations are cultural differences and socioeconomic disadvantages. However, lower participation rates in amateur sport could be at least partly due to ethnic discrimination. Are minority ethnic groups granted the same right to belong as their non-immigrant peers? To answer this question, this paper uses publicly available data from a field experiment in which mock applications were sent out to over 1,600 football clubs in Germany. Having a foreign-sounding name significantly reduces the likelihood of being invited to participate. The paper concludes that amateur football clubs are not as permeable as they are often perceived to be. It claims that traditional explanations for lower participation rates of immigrants need to be revisited.

    Abstract: In this article, we focus on ways in which ‘internal migration industries’ shape the housing location of refugees in cities. Based on empirical studies in Halle, Schwerin, Berlin, Stuttgart and Dresden, we bring two issues together. First, we show how a specific financialised accumulation model of renting out privatised public housing stock to disadvantaged parts of the population has emerged that increasingly targets migrant tenants. With the growing immigration of refugees to Germany since 2015, this model has intensified. Second, we discuss how access to housing is formed by informal agents. While housing is almost inaccessible for households on social welfare, the situation is even worse for refugees. This situation has given rise to a new ‘shadow economy’ for housing that offers services with dubious quality for excessive fees. Bringing these two issues together, we argue that housing provision to refugees has become a new business opportunity. This has given rise to a broad variety of ‘internal migration industries’ that provide the housing infrastructure, but also control access to housing. This not only results in new opportunities for profit extraction, but actively shapes new patterns of segregation and the concentration of refugees in particular types of disadvantaged neighbourhoods.

    Abstract: In their seminal work that helped to re-invent Mediterranean anthropology some 20 years ago, Horden and Purcell argue that the religious landscape reflects both, the fragmented topography of Mediterranean micro-regions and the means by which the fragmentation is overcome. In order to explore how space and time concern the divine along and across Mediterranean shores, this paper examines how social and spiritual borders are crossed in religious practice and how graduated socialities are generated, shaped and negotiated. It argues that connectivities, lateral and vertical, are forged or undone by turning borders into thresholds and vice-versa. Drawing from both, the history of Mediterranean anthropology of religion and ethnographic material from transnational mobile members of trance networks, the paper sketches an anthropology of blessing across nested fields of exteriority and alterity, found within and without the social niches of Mediterranean lifeworlds.

    Abstract: After the initial moments of political protest have passed, urban protest movements and neighbourhood initiatives often face the challenge of establishing a sustainable organizing structure in their neighbourhoods and of creating long-lasting collaborations, including maintaining relations among various participants and heterogeneous political actors in the city. This paper analyses the political practice of Kotti & Co, an urban neighbourhood initiative that has been active in political struggles pertaining to social housing and displacement and working against racism and neoliberal urban politics in the super-diverse city of Berlin. In the larger context of urban protest movements since 2011, the initiative managed to overcome a series of political challenges and to build a long-lasting organizing practice. The authors identify Kotti & Co as a ‘community of struggle’ that was able to foster a lasting movement through three elements of sustainability. The protest first managed to build bridges across and beyond its members’ differences (class, migration background, sexual orientation) by finding a common set of political demands and social practices as well as by establishing collective place-based subjectivities. These place-based subjectivities have contributed to overcoming conventional identity politics by forming a new kind of political identity through the struggle itself.
