    Abstract: Online surveys are a widely used mode of data collection. However, as no interviewer is present, respondents face any difficulties they encounter alone, which may lead to measurement error and biased or (at worst) invalid conclusions. Detecting response difficulty is therefore vital. Previous research has predominantly focused on response times to detect general response difficulty. However, response difficulty may stem from different sources, such as overly complex wording or similarity between response options. So far, the question of whether indicators can discriminate between these sources has not been addressed. The goal of the present study, therefore, was to evaluate whether specific characteristics of participants’ cursor movements are related to specific properties of survey questions that increase response difficulty. In a preregistered online experiment, we manipulated the length of the question text, the complexity of the question wording, and the difficulty of the response options orthogonally between questions. We hypothesized that these changes would lead to increased response times, hovers (movement pauses), and y-flips (changes in vertical movement direction), respectively. As expected, each manipulation led to an increase in the corresponding measure, although the other dependent variables were affected as well. However, the strengths of the effects did differ as expected between the mouse-tracking indices: Hovers were more sensitive to complex wording than to question difficulty, while the opposite was true for y-flips. These results indicate that differentiating sources of response difficulty might indeed be feasible using mouse-tracking.

    Abstract: Key Points: (1) Mit 5.100 Betrieben durchgeführte Umfrage-Experimente liefern Belege für antimuslimische Diskriminierung in den Einstellungsentscheidungen von Arbeitgeber*innen in Deutschland. (2) Die Befunde legen nahe, dass dem Arbeits- und Fachkräftemangel in Deutschland auch durch den Abbau von Diskriminierung in den Einstellungsentscheidungen von Arbeitgeber*innen begegnet werden könnte. (3) Wir empfehlen Aufklärungskampagnen zum Ausmaß der Arbeitsmarktdiskriminierung gegenüber Muslim*innen, sowie zu den ökonomischen Nachteilen, die Betrieben dadurch entstehen. (4) Empfehlenswert sind zudem flächendeckende und institutionalisierte Antidiskriminierungstrainings, insbesondere für kleinere Betriebe etwa im Rahmen von IHK Meisterkursen.

    Abstract: Key Points: (1) Das Projekt untersucht die implizite und explizite Assoziation ethnisch gelesener Gruppen mit den wertenden Emotionen Furcht und Bewunderung in deutschen Medien und die Wirkung solcher Assoziationen. (2) Es zeigt sich u.a., dass Migrant:innen und Geflüchtete in nahezu allen Bereichen des deutschen Mediensystems stärker mit Furcht als mit Bewunderung assoziiert werden und dass schon ein einmaliges Lesen dieser Darstellungen Gruppenbewertungen negativer werden lässt. (3) Wir empfehlen Journalist:innen daher u.a. eine vielfältigere Berichterstattung hinsichtlich der Themenkontexte und sozialen Rollen, die mit ethnisch gelesenen Gruppen in Verbindung gebracht werden. (4) Um die Darstellungsmuster der Medienberichterstattung zu ändern, sind außerdem ein verändertes politisches Handeln und eine andere politische Rhetorik erforderlich. Etablierte politische Akteur:innen müssen Perspektiven für gelingende Integration aufzeigen und diese umsetzen.

    Abstract: Das Projekt zielt darauf ab, in den ethnologischen Fächern einen Wechsel der Publikationskulturvoranzutreiben und Open Access als Publikationsform im Goldenen wie im Grünen Weg zu etablieren, der auch zukünftig für die Publizierenden frei von „processing charges“ bleiben soll. Am Beispiel der Transformation von drei zentralen deutschen ethnologischen Zeitschriften soll der Goldene Weg (inzwischen wird häufig von Diamond Open Access gesprochen) umgesetzt werden. Dabei handelt es sich um die Zeitschrift für Ethnologie/Journal for Social and Cultural Anthropology (ZfE/JSCA), die Zeitschrift für Empirische Kulturwissenschaft/Journal for Cultural Analysis and European Ethnology (ZEKW) sowie Curare – Zeitschrift für Medizinethnologie/Journal of Medical Anthropology. Im Zuge der Umsetzung werden Chancen und Risiken der OA-Transformation der ethnologischen Fachgebiete berücksichtigt und analysiert. Dafür leistet das Projekt eine infrastrukturelle Umsetzung fachlicher Reflexion und Diskussion in den ethnologischen Fächern und schlägt eine transdisziplinäre Brücke von den ethnologischen Fächern zu den Bibliothekswissenschaften, deren technische und zugleich fachbezogene Expertise in Infrastrukturen für die OA-Transformation der ethnologischen Fächer zentral ist. Dadurch wird ein thematisches Netzwerk zum Austausch aufgebaut, das nach der Etablierung von Routinen und Plattformen weiter tätig bleibt, um neue Entwicklungen zu diskutieren und bestehende Infrastrukturen an jeweils aktuelle Gegebenheiten anzupassen.
    Abstract: The project aims to foster a change in the publication culture in the ethnological disciplines. It wants to establish Open Access as a form of publication in both the Golden and the Green Road, which should remain free of processing charges for the authors. The Golden Road, also called Diamond Open Access, will be exemplified by the transformation of three central German ethnological journals: Zeitschrift für Ethnologie/Journal for Social and Cultural Anthropology (ZfE/JSCA), Zeitschrift für Empirische Kulturwissenschaft/Journal for Cultural Analysis and European Ethnology (ZEKW) and Curare – Zeitschrift für Medizinethnologie/Journal of Medical Anthropology. In the course of the implementation, opportunities and risks of the OA transformation for the ethnological disciplines will be analysed. The project aims to establish an infrastructure that supports disciplinary reflections and discussion with regard to Open Access in the ethnological fields. It builds a transdisciplinary bridge to the library and information sciences, whose technically adapted subject-related expertise in the infrastructures are central to the OA transformation of the ethnological disciplines. The project intends to establish a thematic network for exchange that will remain active after routines and platforms have been established, to discuss future possibilities and improve new states of development.

    Abstract: Religious leaders are highly influential actors in many societies across the globe. In the singular global crisis brought upon by the Covid-19 pandemic, their perspective on the pandemic itself but also the post-pandemic future is of high relevance. Against this background, the Research Programme on Religious Communities and Sustainable Development conducted the Religious Leaders’ Perspectives on Corona Survey, a comprehensive survey of 1200 religious leaders globally, in 2020/2021. Its aim was to investigate the role of religious communities and religious leaders during the Covid-19 pandemic. This report provides an outline of the survey methodology and the resultant dataset and highlights key results. It emerges that the Covid-19 pandemic was not primarily a health crisis. Rather, in terms of its consequences Covid-19 had the characteristics of a primarily economic crisis in the global South and a primarily psychosocial crisis in the Global North. Moreover, the pandemic has had a fundamental impact on religious practice across the globe. This impact, however, seems to be highly unequal between the Global South and North. Religious communities are shown to have had an important role as civil society actors in the pandemic, providing both psychosocial and material support. Regarding the post-pandemic worlds, religious leaders envision a more equitable society and emphasize the need for environmental sustainability.

    Abstract: Key Points: (1) Racist Stacking beschreibt ein Phänomen aus dem Sport. Es bezieht sich darauf, dass Athlet*innen entlang von rassistischen Zuschreibungen auf bestimmten Spielpositionen in Mannschaftssportarten „gestapelt“ werden. Konkret verweist Racist Stacking auf die Überrepräsentation weißer Spieler*innen auf zentralen und taktisch geprägten Spielpositionen und auf die Überrepräsentation Schwarzer Spieler*innen auf körperbetonten, dezentralen Spielpositionen. Das vorliegende Working Paper widmet sich dem Phänomen in drei Teilstudien. (2) Die erste empirische Studie zeigt, dass in der Fußballbundesliga der Frauen Schwarze Spielerinnen häufiger auf körperlich betonten Spielpositionen vertreten sind und seltener auf taktisch geprägten Spielpositionen. (3) Die zweite experimentelle Studie zeigt, dass Proband*innen weiße und Schwarze Fußballspieler für ausgewählte Spielpositionen als gleich geeignet bewerten, wenn ihnen Angaben zu Leistungsparametern der Spieler vorliegen. (4) Die dritte experimentelle Studie, in der den Proband*innen keine Leistungsparameter vorlagen, verdeutlicht hingegen, dass Schwarze Spieler als geeigneter für die Außenbahnen und als weniger geeignet für die Torwartposition bewertet wurden. (5) Die Ergebnisse aus den drei Teilstudien weisen darauf hin, dass die Betrachtung des Sports im Kontext der Forschung über Rassismus relevant ist. Denn hierbei wid deutlich, dass biologistische Imaginationen kein Relikt des letzten Jahrhunderts sind, sondern dass diese rassistischen Bilder bis heute wirksam geblieben sind.

    Abstract: Socio‐psychological factors, including aspirations, play a significant role in economic decisions and the sustainable development of low‐income economies. However, the interplay between business aspirations and business strategies among smallholder farmers in Africa is complex, with little known about how they develop, what motivates them, and how these aspirations affect business decisions. To address this knowledge gap, this study examines how small‐scale farmers in rural Zambia develop crop‐specific business aspirations and how these aspirations influence their agricultural marketing strategies, such as marketing channels and coordination mechanisms. Our descriptive analysis shows farmers aspire to increase maize and soybeans' income, price, value‐addition, and bargaining power within 2 years. There is, however, significant heterogeneity in the sample, as over half of the farmers reported lower aspirations for the maize business and some aspects of the soybean business. The instrumented multinomial probit analysis reveals that farmers with higher human capital and positive socio‐cognitive psychology, such as locus of control, have higher business aspirations (i.e., ambition) and aspirations gap (i.e., ambition level). Evidence also shows that farmers' business aspirations influence their agricultural marketing decisions, with ambitious farmers preferring to transact with large‐scale buyers rather than small‐scale traders and retailers, using relational contracts. The study concludes that farmers' business aspirations, particularly their business aspiration gap, strongly influence agricultural marketing strategies, but their effects vary with crops and levels of business decisions.

    Keywords: race ; whiteness ; sensory research ; smell ; sound ; cities ; sensory urbanism ; migration ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: In this paper, we reflect on the purchase of sensory methodologies to research urban diversity and the (re-)production of whiteness. In the social sciences, scholars commonly rely on visual methods, using the ‘body as text’ (Stoller, 1997). Based on more recent advances in urban and migration studies, we seek to move beyond this Eurocentric focus, by asking how urban diversity is experienced through sounds and through smells. How individuals experience sensory inputs such as sounds and smells, and how they make sense of them, feeds into processes of boundary making and boundary crossing. The urban space is a prime context to study such processes, given that cities’ dense character and high diversity provide their residents with endless sensory stimuli. Based on sensory research in a highly diverse street in Berlin, we reflect on how smells and sounds contribute to creating hierarchies between (groups of) people, how they contribute to feelings of local belonging and home, or feelings of being out of place. We also reflect on the challenges of applying sensory methods. These refer to the relationship between participants’ embodied experiences and how they made sense of those discursively in group discussions; and about the implications of doing research on a highly mediatized street. With our focus on micro interactions, the (re-) production of space, and diversity, our findings add to the emerging field of ‘sensory urbanism’.

    Abstract: Neighbourhood effects are commonly understood as an effect of a characteristic of the residential location on social outcomes – although people are also linked to other places in their everyday lives. Based on a mixed-methods study on the significance of neighbourhoods for political recruitment of first- and second-generation Turkish immigrants in Berlin, this article shows that neighbourhoods with a strong migrant civic infrastructure are important places for political recruitment – not only for their residents, but also for visitors and people linked to them through social networks. The article identifies three mechanisms by which people can be linked to neighbourhoods and the resources embedded in them. The first is residency. Second, neighbourhoods can work as a hub when people visit them to shop, meet friends, or engage in other activities. Visitors can then profit from a neighbourhood’s infrastructure, such as civic organisations. Third, neighbourhoods work as a node when social networks transmit information and resources originating in one neighbourhood context – for example, political information – to others located outside of it. The article contributes to an understanding of neighbourhoods not as closed-off containers but as being interconnected to other places, non-residents, and resources, an understanding that comprehends the spatial production of social inequalities in terms of residency, everyday mobility, and social network connections.
    Abstract: 邻里效应通常被理解为居住地特征对社会结果的影响—尽管人们在日常生活中也与其他地方有联系。本文基于混合方法,研究了街区对于柏林第一代和第二代土耳其移民政治招募的重要性,结果表明,拥有强大出行市政基础设施的街区是进行政治招募的重要场所—不仅对其居民如此,对于游客和通过社交网络与他们有联系的人来说也是如此。本文确定了人们与街区及其所包含的资源相联系的三种机制。第一种机制是居住权。其次,街区可以作为人们购物、会友或从事其他活动的枢纽。于是游客可以从街区的基础设施(例如民间组织)中获益。第三,当社交网络将源自某个街区环境的信息和资源(例如政治信息)传输到其他街区环境时,街区就充当着一个节点。本文有助于人们认识到街区并非是封闭的容器,而是与其他地方、街区居民之外的人和各种资源相互连接的,从而从居住权、日常出行和社交网络连接等方面来理解社会不平等空间的产生。

    Keywords: remittances ; household expenditure ; ARDL model ; development aid ; Benin ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: This study examines the short- and long-run relationship between remittance and Benin household expenditure. We analysed 45 years of time series data, from 1974 to 2019, from the World Bank Open data repository using the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) to cointegration model. The findings suggest no significant long-run relationship between remittance receipts and household expenditure. However, the short-run relationship is positive and significant indicating that household remittance increases their expenditure solely in the short run. Development aid and trade openness used as control variables are negatively associated with household expenditure. These do not significantly increase household expenditure in the short and long-run. We recommend that policymakers in developing countries like Benin adopt instruments that encourage remittance inflows and promote household efficient use to meet short- and long-run expenditure needs.
    Abstract: Plain language summary: Previous studies did not provide conclusive information on the long-run importance of remittance for households in the context of developing countries. We contribute to the literature by evaluating the short and long-run relationship between remittances and household expenditure taking evidence from Benin. We retrieved data on remittance, household expenditure, development aid, trade openness, and inflation from the World Bank open data repository and analysed them using an econometric model. The long-run results show no significant association between household remittance and their expenditure. In the short-run, household remittances increase their expenditure. We recommend that policymakers in developing countries like Benin adopt instruments that encourage remittance inflows and promote household efficient use to meet short- and long-run expenditure needs.

    Abstract: Almost a fifth of the population in OECD countries report having a disability and the proportion of students classified as having special educational needs (SEN) has steadily increased over recent decades. While this group faces marginalization in schooling and employment everywhere, there are profound differences in disability‐based disadvantages across countries. However, comparative research on the labor market opportunities of persons with disabilities (PwDs) remains limited, especially regarding school‐to‐work transitions (STWT) that are crucial for subsequent labor market opportunities. Thus, lacking comparative knowledge on how institutional contexts shape these transitions also limits opportunities for policy learning and improvement of supports provided. This study addresses these gaps by analysing longitudinal data from the European Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU‐SILC). First, using sequence and cluster analysis, we classify these trajectories and provide an in‐depth analysis of labor market entry patterns for PwDs compared to those without disabilities across 31 European countries. Second, we explore whether the timing of first employment, instability during the STWT, as well as inclusionary or exclusionary transitions vary between these groups and how the disparities between persons with and without disabilities regarding these indicators are related to institutionalized segregation and support structures. Our findings highlight that PwDs usually do not transition more slowly to (some form of) employment, yet they experience more instability and less inclusion during their STWT. Segregation exacerbates disadvantages, whereas institutional support structures reduce the disadvantages youth with disabilities face when these programs actively facilitate pathways to inclusion.

    Abstract: Using data from the Australian Household, Income, and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey (2001–2020), we examine how combined patterns of non-standard employment and underemployment in the early career shape later wage trajectories, paying careful attention to gender differences on a representative sample of Australian young men ( N  = 470) and women ( N  = 497). By combining multichannel sequence analysis and random effects panel models, we make three central findings. First, we identify seven distinct early employment trajectories, with the “standard” career, characterized by stable, full-time permanent jobs in the first 5 years post-education, being the most prevalent. Second, we find that combined patterns of non-standard employment and underemployment during early careers are associated with significant wage penalties. However, these wage penalties diminish within 10 years. Third, enduring and widening wage disparities are found only among youth primarily unemployed or inactive early in their careers. These penalties are particularly pronounced among men, underscoring the influence of the “ideal” worker norm. Overall, integrating underemployed jobseekers into the workforce and addressing gender-based biases should be a priority for policymakers to ensure equal opportunities and fair treatment for all workers in the labor market.

    Abstract: This article explores relations between cultural heritage and cultural values for sustainable development in the Enugu region. It discusses the potential to advance a cultural approach to sustainable development of regions by examining the cultural food heritage and relating it to cultural values. Based on empirical research, the article employed a mixed-methods approach to examine the relationship between the identified major local food heritage and cultural values for sustainable regional planning and development. The study examined primary data from 380 community elders, traders, and relevant institutions—including the Ministry of Arts and Culture and the Ministry of Agriculture—through interviews, participant observation, and questionnaires. Data were analyzed using SPSS and Pearson product–moment correlation. Findings identified eight local food heritages and six cultural values. The findings suggest that promoting and preserving local food heritage can be crucial in fostering sustainable cultural values and contributing to sustainable regional development. The local food had a statistically significant influence on cultural values. The Pearson correlation result ( p -value = 0.000) shows a strong correlation between the local food heritage and cultural values for sustainable regional planning and development. However, the study also identified several challenges threatening the sustainability of local food heritage in the region, including high costs, small-scale farming, insecurity, climate change, and poor transportation. The study recommends the development and implementation of comprehensive policies and programs that prioritize the preservation and promotion of local food heritage while addressing the identified challenges.

    Abstract: Das Policy Paper arbeitet auf Basis des Forschungsstands die Bedeutung rassistischer Diskriminierung für die Bildungsergebnisse migrantischer Schüler*innen in Deutschland heraus und leitet daraus Handlungsempfehlungen ab. Es ist gut belegt, dass Erfahrungen rassistischer Diskriminierung im Schulalltag die betroffenen Schüler*innen beeinträchtigen. Dass der geringere Bildungserfolg migrantischer Schüler*innen maßgeblich auf diskriminierende Bewertungen durch Lehrkräfte (z.B. Noten) zurückzuführen ist, lässt sich aus dem Forschungsstand nicht ableiten; inakkurat niedrige Leistungserwartungen können allerdings ihren Kompetenzerwerb hemmen. Systematische Bildungsungleichheiten können auch auf individueller Ebene adressiert werden, vor allem aber sind strukturelle Maßnahmen notwendig. Vielversprechende Ansätze zur Reduzierung von Bildungsungleichheit sind: die Sensibilisierung (angehender) Lehrkräfte für die Auswirkungen von inakkurat niedrigen Leistungserwartungen und von rassistischen Diskriminierungserfahrungen; qualitativ hochwertige, leicht zugängliche frühe Bildungsangebote und Sprachbildung; eine gesamtgesellschaftliche Reflexion von angemessenen Leistungsstandards und Chancengerechtigkeit.

    Abstract: Die feministische Forschung und Geschlechterforschung bietet zentrale Perspektiven zur Analyse von Umwelt- und Klimakrisen sowie zur sozial-ökologischen Transformation. In diesem Beitrag identifizieren wir vier Eckpfeiler, die wir auf langjährigen feministischen Debatten und Ansätzen aufbauen: (1) Die Pluralisierung des Wissens fordert die Infragestellung hegemonialer Wissensproduktionen und die Anerkennung marginalisierter Perspektiven. (2) Transformative Forschungsmethoden betonen partizipative und praxisorientierte Ansätze, die neue Wege der Wissensgenerierung eröffnen. (3) Die Erweiterung von Geschlechterkonzepten zeigt auf, wie differenzierte Geschlechteranalysen Leerstellen in sozial-ökologischen Krisenverhältnissen schließen können, etwa durch Queer Ecologies, kritische Männlichkeitsforschung oder den Nexus Gender – Klima – Migration. (4) Die Ermöglichung engagierter Forschung plädiert für eine enge Verknüpfung von Theorie und Praxis sowie strukturelle Veränderungen im Wissenschaftsbetrieb. Wir argumentieren, dass feministische Ansätze unverzichtbare Impulse für eine ganzheitliche Betrachtung und transformative Strategien zur Bewältigung der Umwelt- und Klimakrisen liefern. Abschließend geben wir einen Überblick über Kontext und Beiträge des Sonderheftes.
    Abstract: Feminist and gender studies offer important perspectives for analyzing environmental and climate crises and advancing socio-ecological transformations. In this article, we outline four key pillars, building upon longstanding feminist debates and approaches: (1) Pluralizing knowledge calls for challenging hegemonic knowledge production and recognizing marginalized perspectives. (2) Transformative research methods emphasize participatory and practice-oriented approaches to foster innovative knowledge generation. (3) Expanding gender concepts highlights how nuanced gender analyses can address gaps in socio-ecological crisis research, drawing on examples from fields such as queer ecologies, critical masculinity studies, and the gender-climate-migration nexus. (4) Enabling engaged research advocates for a strong connection between theory and practice, alongside structural changes within academic systems to support transformative research. We argue that feminist approaches provide indispensable insights for holistic examinations and strategies to address environmental and climate crises. The article concludes by introducing the context and contributions of this special issue.

    Abstract: How, by whom and to what effects are camps governed today? Despite persistent critiques, camp institutions remain a resilient and versatile apparatus of power globally. Yet there is only limited conceptualization of camps and the multi-scalar governance they operate within from a comparative perspective. This special issue remedies this by looking at governance of five different types of camps: prison camps, detention camps, (re)education camps, refugee camps, and relocation camps. In all these seemingly contrasting iterations, we argue that contemporary camp institutions (from Guantanamo to refugee camps) are deployed ultimately as an order-making apparatus. Camps deploy plural governing techniques for this purpose, ranging from material, spatial, and high-tech to ideological and experiential. Nevertheless, it is argued that these institutions represent a self-contained reality and an autonomous order that is distinct from the broader objectives and planning that initially established them. Part of this order demonstrates a diverse range of resistance mechanisms to dominant governing logics. Overall, we argue contra to the prevailing Agambenian theorization of the camp: Camps are not spaces of exception that reveal the norm but have become an expected norm in contemporary governance, and they are not a priori or ultimately spaces of exclusion, but instead apparatus of desired forms of incorporation into the dominant socio-political order, whether state or non-state.

    Abstract: 1. Conservation performance payments are becoming an increasingly popular instrument to tackle human–wildlife conflicts. In Sweden, Sámi communities practicing reindeer husbandry receive performance payments as compensation for reindeer losses caused by lynxes and wolverines. This study examines the challenges and conflicts associated with the Conservation Performance payment scheme and aims to understand its effectiveness. 2. We carried out a thematic analysis of challenges and conflicts using semi-structured interviews with stakeholders associated with the payment scheme as the main source of evidence, supported by literature identified in a systematic review. 3. The results reveal a wicked conflict setting with a broad range of direct and indirect conflicts. Direct conflicts revolve around the following themes: (1) Uncertainty and mistrust regarding the annual number of lynx and wolverine family groups and the extent of reindeer losses caused by these predators; (2) Payments being too small to cover losses; (3) Large numbers of reindeer lost to predators in many communities and the related hunting regulations. Indirect conflicts are linked to cumulative effects, such as the negative effects of forestry and mining projects on reindeer husbandry, a lack of comprehensive environmental policies, and the perceived lack of respect for reindeer herding as a culturally significant livelihood. 4. We argue that conflicts regarding uncertainties in predator and reindeer loss numbers in particular rather mask broader underlying conflicts. 5. Policy implications: We suggest that high predator-caused reindeer losses in combination with indirect conflicts hampers the successful implementation of the program. Nevertheless, all interviewees appreciated the basic design of the program and its potential. However, realizing this potential requires acknowledging the wickedness of human–wildlife conflicts and adequately addressing long-standing ecological and socio-cultural root conflicts by developing comprehensive, cross-sectoral, and inclusive conservation policies.

    Abstract: After the fall of Suharto in 1998, Indonesia experienced a democratic transition that many observers hailed as a model for other Muslim countries. Twenty years after the reforms, many scholars have noted the erosion of democratization, including the rise of intolerance and conservative majoritarianism, threats to civil liberties, human rights abuses, and the decreasing quality of elections. In this article, we show how the Covid-19 pandemic accelerated these tendencies. Since 2020, the government has finalized at least five controversial legal drafts. This is particularly sobering to promoters of liberal democracy because the government is headed by Joko Widodo, whom many considered the more democratic candidate in comparison with his opponent, former military leader Prabowo Subianto. Not only the content of these bills but also changes to the legislative process potentially threaten Indonesia’s democratic future. The Indonesian government has pushed the bills through despite the massive criticism and rejection of all five bills by NGOs, scholars, human rights activists, and even some politicians. It cited public health and the Covid-19 pandemic as a reason for limiting spaces for political deliberation. We argue that there are at least three levels on which the Covid-19 pandemic act as a catalyst to the democratic decline tendencies in Indonesia: firstly, by executive aggrandizement and weakening of democratic institutions through legislative means; secondly, by curtailing public participation; and, thirdly, by depriving the next generation of the education and social conditions necessary for political engagement.

    Keywords: Transition to parenthood ; Housework ; Paid work ; Division of labor ; Fairness ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: The transition to parenthood is a pivotal life course event that impacts well-being, relationship quality and the distribution of housework and paid work. In Germany, during the transition to first-time parenthood, women often reduce their involvement in paid work and take on a larger share of housework, leading to a more gendered division of labor. This shift could influence perceptions of fairness in the division of labor inducing both men and women to perceive the division as being more fair to themselves or more fair to their partner. Using data from the German Panel Analysis of Intimate Relationships and Family Dynamics (pairfam) and fixed effects models, we examine how women’s and men’s perception of fairness of the division of labor varies around first childbirth conceptualizing different phases spanning from 5 years before until 5 years after the first childbirth. Relative to baseline, mothers (-to-be) reported a fairer division of labor (less under-benefitting) from around conception to right after childbirth. Yet, already from 6 months after childbirth mothers’ perception of fairness becomes less fair to them again and the perception of under-benefitting continues as the child ages. For fathers-to-be, perceptions of fairness did not vary substantially around childbirth. We further found that neither the change in the division of housework, nor in the division of paid work, explained changes in fairness perceptions during the transition to parenthood.

    Abstract: Freundschaften haben große Bedeutung im Leben vieler Menschen, und sie werden im Zuge gesellschaftlichen Wandels noch bedeutsamer. Das Buch untersucht, was Menschen im post-traditionalen neuen Mittelschichtsmilieu in ihren Freundschaften suchen, was sie dort finden und welche Rolle das Geschlechterverhältnis dabei spielt. Eine zentrale These lautet, dass Freundschaften hier als Gegenideologie zu den Leiden an und in der Arbeit sowie in der Liebe imaginiert werden.

    Keywords: Person-situation relations ; Narcissistic states ; RI-CLPM ; Situation perceptions, Narcissism dynamics ; Psychologie ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: This study investigated the dynamic interplay between narcissistic states—narcissistic agency, antagonism, and vulnerability—and situation perceptions using the DIAMONDS framework. Participants (N = 183) engaged in weekly online group discussions over six weeks, simulating the natural acquaintance process. Results showed significant co-occurrences: situation perceptions of Positivity related to heightened narcissistic agency, while Duty and Negativity perceptions were linked to narcissistic antagonism and vulnerability. Random-Intercept Cross-Lagged Panel Models revealed first causal relations, with situation perceptions often preceding changes in narcissistic states. For example, perceptions of Intellect and Positivity increased narcissistic agency, while Intellect, Duty, and Negativity triggered higher-than-usual narcissistic antagonism. Findings highlight the role of situation perceptions in shaping the momentray manifestations of narcissisism.

    Abstract: "Researching Colonial Provenances" is a slightly abridged version of the final report of the research project on the provenances of the collections from Togo under German colonial rule, currently in the holdings of the museums of the Staatliche Ethnographische Sammlungen Sachsen (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden). The project, funded by the German Lost Art Foundation, focused on a collection of 700 "objects" and photographs that were acquired for or donated to the Museum für Völkerkunde Dresden and the GRASSI Museum für Völkerkunde zu Leipzig between 1899 and 1939. The project focused on the stories of their appropriation in connection with the activities of German members of the colonial police force, scientists, traders and colonial officials in Togo under German colonial rule from 1884 to 1914. The colonial actors in question are Adolf Diehl, Hans Gruner, Harry Grunitzky, Ernst F. Gütschow, Oskar Marx, Valentin von Massow, Adam Mischlich and Gaston Thierry. They acted within the context of colonial injustice, which was characterised by annexation expeditions, wars of conquest, missionary work and the appropriation of cultural items. The results of the research are published in the Online Collection of the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden and in a more detailed version of the final report in the Proveana database of the German Lost Art Foundation. Situated in the more recent field of post-colonial provenance research, the report is intended as a contribution to research into the history of ethnological museums and their extensive networks in a colonial context. With its findings on the close connection between museums and the project of colonial expansion and rule, it also emphasises the responsibility that museums have in accounting for their entanglement with colonial history.
    Abstract: "Rechercher les provenances coloniales" est une version légèrement abrégée du rapport final du projet de recherche sur les provenances des collections provenant du Togo sous la domination coloniale allemande, qui se trouvent aujourd'hui dans les musées des Staatlichen Ethnographischen Sammlungen Sachsen (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden). Le projet, soutenu par le Deutsches Zentrum Kulturgutverluste, était centré sur un ensemble de 700 "objets" et photographies qui ont été achetés ou donnés au Museum für Völkerkunde Dresden et au GRASSI Museum für Völkerkunde zu Leipzig entre 1899 et 1939. Le projet s'est penché sur les histoires de leur appropriation, en lien avec les activités des membres de la police coloniale allemande, des scientifiques, des commerçants et des fonctionnaires coloniaux au Togo sous la domination coloniale allemande de 1884 à 1914. Les acteurs coloniaux en question sont Adolf Diehl, Hans Gruner, Harry Grunitzky, Ernst F. Gütschow, Oskar Marx, Valentin von Massow, Adam Mischlich et Gaston Thierry. Ceux-ci agissaient dans le cadre du contexte d'injustice coloniale, marqué par des expéditions d'annexion, des guerres de conquête ainsi que par le prosélytisme et l'appropriation de biens culturels. Les résultats de la recherche sont publiés dans la Online Collection des Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden et, dans une version plus détaillée du rapport final, dans la base de données Proveana du Deutsches Zentrum Kulturgutverluste. Situé dans le domaine plus récent de la recherche postcoloniale sur la provenance des biens, le rapport se veut une contribution à l'étude de l'histoire des musées d'ethnographie et de leurs vastes réseaux dans le contexte colonial. En découvrant les liens étroits entre les musées et le projet d'expansion et de domination coloniale, il souligne également la responsabilité des musées dans le traitement de l'histoire coloniale.

    Keywords: encounters ; more-than-human relationships ; multispecies ethnography ; animal enclosures ; Bräuche, Etikette, Folklore
    Abstract: Drawing on ethnographic research, this article examines a relatively unexplored set of urban scenarios for human–animal interactions in Berlin, Germany, which I have named “animal enclosures.” Animal enclosures are public spaces where people see and pet captive domesticated farmed animals. The article first unpacks those locations by paying attention to their structural and managerial composition and discusses their ethical implications regarding welfare and captivity. Additionally, focusing on two enclosures, the Tierpark Neukölln and the Kinderbauernhof in Görlitzer Park , it problematizes captivity as an infrastructure limiting animals’ mobility and simultaneously allowing and restring human–animal encounters. Right after, it explores the notions of encounter and contact zones and uses them as analytical resources to analyze how human visitors interact with animals in those urban scenarios mediated by different levels of animal captivity. Finally, it introduces the idea of partial encounters , which are incomplete and biased more-than-human modes of engagement.

    Abstract: “Koloniale Provenienzen erforschen” ist eine leicht gekürzte Fassung des Abschlussberichts zum Forschungsprojekt über die Provenienzen der Sammlungen aus Togo unter deutscher Kolonialherrschaft, die sich heute in den Museen der Staatlichen Ethnographischen Sammlungen Sachsen (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden) befinden. Im Mittelpunkt des vom Deutschen Zentrum Kulturgutverluste geförderten Projekts stand ein Konvolut von 700 “Objekten” und Fotografien, die zwischen 1899 und 1939 als Ankäufe oder Schenkungen an das Museum für Völkerkunde Dresden und das GRASSI Museum für Völkerkunde zu Leipzig gelangten. Das Projekt befasste sich mit den Geschichten ihrer Aneignung, die im Zusammenhang mit den Aktivitäten von Angehörigen der deutschen Kolonialpolizei, von Wissenschaftlern, Händlern und Kolonialbeamten in Togo unter deutscher Kolonialherrschaft von 1884 bis 1914 steht. Bei den kolonialen Akteuren handelt es sich um Adolf Diehl, Hans Gruner, Harry Grunitzky, Ernst F. Gütschow, Oskar Marx, Valentin von Massow, Adam Mischlich und Gaston Thierry. Diese agierten im Rahmen des kolonialen Unrechtskontextes, der durch Annektierungsexpeditionen, Eroberungskriege sowie Missionierung und Aneignung von Kulturgut geprägt war. Die Ergebnisse der Forschung sind in der Online Collection der Staatlichen Kunstsammlungen Dresden und in einer ausführlicheren Version des Abschlussberichts in der Datenbank Proveana des Deutschen Zentrums Kulturgutverluste veröffentlicht. Im jüngeren Feld der postkolonialen Provenienzforschung verortet, versteht sich der Bericht als Beitrag zur Erforschung der Geschichte der Völkerkundemuseen und ihrer weitverzweigten Netzwerke im kolonialen Kontext. Mit den Erkenntnissen zur engen Verbindung zwischen Museen und dem Projekt kolonialer Expansion und Herrschaft verdeutlicht er auch die Verantwortung, die den Museen bei der Aufarbeitung der kolonialen Geschichte zukommt.

    Keywords: rainwater retention basin ; Floating e.V. ; three-way hybrid ; Sozialwissenschaften ; Soziologie und Anthropologie
    Abstract: This paper explores the concept of emerging hybrid urban realms by capturing a notion of hybridity. The focus is on a rainwater retention basin that has been transformed into a space for events and workshops by the Floating e. V., an artist-run association. Using a more-than-human perspective, this work highlights the importance of understanding the relational networks that shape our world and adopting a humble observing position to comprehend emerging modern categories in spaces like this. The hybrid spatial perspective offers an alternative to the divisions created by the poles of modernity, emphasising the interconnected system of relationships and responses. In this context, the paper discusses the Floating e. V.'s utilisation of the "three-way hybrid" and the concept of "response" in line with the perspectives of Whatmore and Latour on hybridity. The paper concludes by emphasising the need to acknowledge that conditions are continually evolving due to the actions of all participants, and a hybrid understanding of these realms offers a valuable lens through which we can better understand the complexities of our changing world.

    Abstract: Das 2022 bei Propyläen in Berlin erschienene Buch Den Schmerz der Anderen begreifen. Holocaust und Weltgedächtnis setzt multidirektionales Denken in eine Praxis der Recherche und des Schreibens um. Dieser Beitrag reflektiert den Entstehungs- und Schreibprozess des Buches mit zeitlichem Abstand zu seiner Veröffentlichung und ersten Rezeptionsphase. Was kann der mitunter frustrierenden erinnerungspolitischen Debatte in Deutschland entgegengesetzt werden, in der es bisher kaum möglich ist, unterschiedliche Gewaltgeschichten solidarisch und sensibel zusammenzudenken? Wie können die Verflechtungen zwischen historischen Begebenheiten und bis in die Gegenwart reichenden Spuren aufgezeigt und für die Lesenden spürbar werden? Inklusives Erinnern wird als eine Praxis verstanden, die jenseits von Opferhierarchien funktioniert und stattdessen ein Weltgedächtnis verhandelbar macht. Die Methodik des Buches, unterschiedliche Recherchematerialien, Perspektiven und eigene persönliche Bezüge miteinander in Beziehung zu setzen, spiegelt sich auch in diesem Beitrag wider, der Auszüge aus dem Buch mit Reflexionen der Autorin verbindet.
    Abstract: Published by Propyläen in Berlin in 2022, Charlotte Wiedemann’s book Den Schmerz der Anderen begreifen. Holocaust und Weltgedächtnis (Grasping the Pain of Others. Holocaust and World Memory) translates multidirectional thinking into a practice of research and writing. This article reflects on the book’s genesis and writing process at a distance from its publication and initial reception phase. What can be done to counter the sometimes frustrating political debate on remembrance in Germany, in which it has hardly been possible to think together different histories of violence and to do so with solidarity and sensitivity? How can the interconnections between historical events and their traces extending into the present be highlighted and made tangible for readers? Inclusive remembrance is understood as a practice that functions beyond victim hierarchies and instead makes a world memory negotiable. The book’s methodology of relating different research materials, perspectives, and the author’s own references to one another is also reflected in this contribution, which combines excerpts from the book with reflections by its author.

    Abstract: Germany’s memoryscape is transforming. Long structured by a focus on the Nazi past and the Holocaust, in which other memories tended to be marginalized out of concern that they might relativize this terrible history, it is increasingly incorporating – and being changed by – other strands of collective remembrance. In particular, Germany’s socialist and colonial pasts, and its multiple histories of migration are gaining significant public presence. How do these mnemonic impulses come together and interact? What are the implications for the dynamics of public remembering? Drawing on ethnographic and other original research, this issue provides new insights into the ongoing transformation.

    Abstract: Wissenschaftler*innen haben zwei unterschiedliche Kategorien der afrikanischen Diaspora identifiziert. Um diese zu analysieren, bedarf es den Gebrauch verschiedener Parameter. Bei der ersten handelt es sich um die Historische Diaspora aus Afrika stammender Menschen, die aus dem transatlantischen Sklavenhandel und seinen ,Begleiterscheinungen' - wie die Ausbeutung afrikanischer Männer, Frauen und Kinder, die aus Afrika als versklavte Population und als Zwangsarbeiter nach Amerika verschleppt wurden - hervorging. Diese systematische Diasporisierung erstreckte sich über einen Zeitraum vom 16. bis hin zum 19. Jahrhundert und führte zu dem, was heute als afronachkommende Bevölkerung der heutigen Nationen Lateinamerikas und der Karibik, einschließlich den USA bezeichnet wird. Die zweite Kategorie ist das Ergebnis eines neueren Phänomens, das als Wirtschaftliche Diasporisierung von Menschen afrikanischer Herkunft beschrieben wird, die auf der Suche nach besseren Lebensbedingungen vereinzelt ins selbst gewählte Exil in den Globalen Norden gehen. Ein hauptsächlicher Unterschied zwischen beiden Kategorien ist der Fakt, dass Mitglieder*innen der wirtschaftlichen Diaspora Gruppe eine offene und konstante Beziehung zu ihrer afrikanischen Heimat aufrechterhalten. So pflegen sie weiterhin konkrete Verwandtschafts-, ethnische und nationale Bindungen mit dem Land, dessen afrikanische Nationalität sie haben. Sie nehmen am täglichen Leben der Nation, einschließlich durch soziale Medien, teil. Zudem werden sie von den, auf dem Kontinent zurückgebliebenen Angehörigen, aufgrund ihrer Fremdwährungsüberweisungen an Familie und Freunde in der Heimat, als reale oder potenzielle Wohltäter*innen angesehen. Außerdem erfüllen sie weiterhin bürgerschaftliche Verantwortung, wie die Teilnahme am Wahlprozess in ihren Heimatländern. Umgekehrt sind Mitglieder*innen der historischen afrikanischen Diaspora in den Amerikas so einer engen Beziehung zu Afrika beraubt. Grund dafür ist die historische Trennung von einem bestimmten Ort in Afrika, welcher durch den systematischen Abbruch ihrer Verwandtschaftsbeziehungen zu Afrika verursacht wurde. In der Tat ist es virtuell unmöglich ihre Wurzeln zu einer bestimmten Abstammung, einem bestimmten Ort oder Nationalität im gegenwärtigen Afrika zurückzuverfolgen. Daher ist das Wort „Afro“ in der Identität der Afrobrasilianer*innen, Afrokolumbianer*innen oder Afro-Puerto Ricaner*innen, usw. nur zu einer symbolischen Zugehörigkeit, denn ihre afrikanische Nationalität ist bestenfalls vorgestellt oder ausgelebt, ohne dass die Möglichkeit besteht, den Pass eines afrikanischen Staates als Erbe ihrer direkten Eltern oder Großeltern mitzuführen. Diese Antrittsvorlesung ist eine Einschätzung der Mühen und des Prozesses der Konstruktion einer Afroidentität durch die Mitglieder*innen der historischen afrikanischen Diaspora, welche heute die afronachkommende Bevölkerung der dreiunddreißig Nationen umfassend der lateinamerikanischen und karibischen Regionen ausmacht. Schlussendlich hinterfragt diese Vorlesung die long durée ihres Strebens nach vollen und kompletten Staatsbürgerechten und -privilegien im modernen lateinamerikanischen und karibischen Ländern, wie Brasilien, Kuba, Kolumbien, Trinidad und Tobago, die Dominikanische Republik, Puerto-Rico, Mexiko, Venezuela, usw.
    Abstract: Researchers have identified two distinct categories of the African Diaspora which must be analysed using different parameters. The first is the Historic Diaspora of African peoples occasioned by the Trans-Atlantic Slavery and its correlates such as the exploitation of African men, women and children sequestered from Africa as enslaved populations and indentured labourers in the Americas. This systematic diasporisation of Africans lasted from the 16th to the 19th Centuries and resulted in what is today considered the Afro-descendant populations of modern day nations of Latin America and the Caribbean, including the USA. The second category is the product of a more recent phenomenon which has been described as the economic diasporisation of African peoples through a sporadic self exile towards the Global North in quest of better living conditions. A major difference between the two categories is the fact that members of the Economic Diaspora group maintain an open and constant access to their African homeland. In fact, they continue to preserve concrete kinship, ethnic and national links with the country of their African nationality. They participate in the daily life of the nation including via the social media, and are looked upon as real or potential benefactors by the loved ones left behind on the continent thanks to their foreign currency remittances to family and friends back home. Furthermore, they continue to fulfil civic responsibilities such as participation in electoral processes in their home country. Conversely, members of the Historic African Diaspora located in the Americas are deprived of such intimate relationship with Africa because of the historic disconnection with any specific location in Africa occasioned by the systematic rupture of their direct kinship ties with Africa. Indeed, it is virtually impossible to trace their Roots in Africa to any specific lineage, location or nationality in contemporary Africa. This is what makes the “afro” in the identity of Afro-Brazilians, Afro-Columbians or Afro-Puerto-Ricans, etc. only a symbolic belonging because their citizenship of Africa is at best imagined and lived out without the possibility of carrying the passport of any African state as an inheritance from their direct parents or grand-parents. This Inaugural Lecture is an appraisal of the travails and the process of afro-identity contruction by the members of the Historic African Diaspora who, today, make up the Afro-descendant populations of the thirtythree nations comprising the Latin American and Caribbean regions. Ultimately, the Lecture interrogates the long durée of their quest for full citizenship rights and privileges in modern Latin-American and Caribbean countries such as Brazil, Cuba, Colombia, Trinidad and Tobago, the Dominican Republic, Puerto-Rico, Mexico,Venezuela, etc.

    Abstract: Increasing temperatures during summer put the health of unhoused people at risk in Berlin. This article examines an NGO heat relief project as a specific problematization of the phenomenon of urban heat. The paper combines qualitative interviews with unhoused activists, potential clients, and project staff with participant observation as a volunteer at the heat relief project. It finds that the heat relief project employs an experimental approach that attempts to enroll a variety of actors to join its problematization. However, this problematization is contested by activists and unhoused people, as they have their own strategies for dealing with urban heat. Another finding is that due to its seasonal nature and unpredictability, urban heat holds the potential to engage and disengage actors and shape political action. This paper contributes to research on climate change's effects on so-called 'vulnerable' communities and the different ways urban heat holds political potential.

    Keywords: TikTok ; Muslim women ; third space theory ; influencers ; marginalized groups ; intersectionality ; Germany ; Soziologie und Anthropologie
    Abstract: Introduction: Social media has become a central part of everyday life, providing spaces for communication, self-expression, and social mobilization. TikTok, specifically, has emerged as a prominent platform for marginalized groups, providing opportunities for activism and representation. However, research falls short in examining the specific role of TikTok for Muslim women in Germany who face intersecting forms of marginalization. This shortcoming reflects a broader lack of research on the experiences of marginalized groups within TikTok’s logics and affordances, and what functions the platform fulfills for these communities. Against this backdrop, this study examines TikTok’s role as a platform for Muslim female content creators in Germany and its broader implications for marginalized communities. Our research is guided by the following questions: (a) What are the main themes and topics that are being brought forward by Muslim women content creators on TikTok? (b) What technical affordances do they use to communicate their content? (c) What functions does TikTok fulfill for Muslim women as an intersectionally marginalized group?. Methods: We analyze 320 videos from 32 public TikTok accounts identified through snowball sampling. Data collection includes automated web scraping, manual transcription, and qualitative coding. This allows us to identify main topics, video formats, and content types to answer our research questions. Results: Our findings show that Muslim women produce diverse content on TikTok, ranging from beauty and lifestyle to religious education and social justice. They shape the platform’s functionalities through creative use, while TikTok’s algorithm and virality logic drive creators to blend entertainment with personal content. The hijab emerges as a unique issue, framed within both political and fashion discourses. Overall, TikTok functions as a “third space” where Muslim women challenge mainstream stereotypes and offer alternative interpretations of their identity. While TikTok provides empowerment and visibility, it also exposes Muslim women to hate speech and harassment. The platform provides tools to counter these issues, but the underlying social hierarchies often limit their visibility, making TikTok both a site of empowerment and vulnerability. Discussion: This study highlights the need for further research into the role of social media for marginalized groups, particularly across platforms, gender, and religion.

    Keywords: Epistemic agonism ; social ecological systems ; participatory modelling ; subjectivity ; performativity ; interdisciplinarity ; Soziologie und Anthropologie
    Abstract: In this paper we extend the use of a relational approach to simulation modelling, a widely used knowledge practice in sustainability science. Among modellers, there is awareness that model results can only be interpreted in view of the assumptions that inform model construction and analysis, but less systematic questioning of those assumptions. Moreover, current methodological discussions tend to focus on integrating social and ecological dynamics or diverse knowledges and data within a model. Yet choices regarding types of modelling, model structure, data handling, interpretation of results and model validation are not purely epistemic. They are entangled with values, contexts of production and use, power relations, and pragmatic considerations. Situated Modelling extends a relational understanding of the world to scientific knowledge production and with that to modelling itself in order to enable a systematic interrogation of these choices and to research social-ecological transformations relationally. To make tangible the situatedness of simulation modelling, we build on existing practices and describe the situatedness of three distinct modelling approaches. We then suggest four guiding principles for Situated Modelling: 1. attending to the apparatus of knowledge production that is socially and materially embedded and produced by e.g. research infrastructures, power relations, and ways of thinking; 2. considering how agency is distributed between model, world, data, modeller in model construction; 3. creating heterogenous collectives which together occupy the formerly individualised subject position; and 4. using agonism as an epistemic virtue to retain and work with significant differentiations of social-ecological dynamics throughout the modelling process.

    Abstract: What does it mean in Germany for colonial history to acquire the status of a new phase of coming to terms with the past alongside, and often in tension with, the memory of the National Socialist and East German pasts? This article explores this politics of memory through the changing role of material restitution at the governmental level. Governments play a central role in shaping and enabling (or disabling) what becomes part of a country’s public memory through state-sanctioned discourses and institutional structures, which we can call memory infrastructures. This article specifically inquires into how provenance research, once a relatively obscure art-historical method, has come to play a critical role within German memory culture. Through examining government discourses that shape the discursive field, I show how a memory infrastructure for colonial reckoning builds on the centrality of provenance research in reckoning with Nazi looted art and adapts it for confronting the colonial past. I suggest we might call this provenance-centered reckoning, and that it has begun to reshape the contours of reckoning with the past in Germany.
    Abstract: Was bedeutet es, dass in Deutschland der Kolonialgeschichte eine neue Phase der Vergangenheitsbewältigung neben der Erinnerung an die nationalsozialistische und ostdeutsche Vergangenheit – und oft in Spannung zu dieser – beigemessen wird? Dieser Artikel untersucht die Erinnerungspolitik anhand der sich wandelnden Rolle materieller Restitution auf staatlicher Ebene. Regierungen spielen eine zentrale Bedeutung bei der Gestaltung und Ermöglichung (oder Verhinderung) dessen, was durch staatlich sanktionierte Diskurse und institutionelle Strukturen, die als Erinnerungsinfrastrukturen bezeichnet werden können, Teil der öffentlichen Erinnerung eines Landes wird. In diesem Artikel wird insbesondere untersucht, wie die Provenienzforschung, einst eine relativ obskure kunsthistorische Methode, eine entscheidende Stellung in der deutschen Erinnerungskultur erlangt hat. Durch die Analyse staatlicher Diskurse, die das diskursive Feld prägen, demonstriere ich, wie eine Erinnerungsinfrastruktur für die koloniale Aufarbeitung auf der zentralen Bedeutung der Provenienzforschung für die Aufarbeitung der NS-Raubkunst aufbaut und sie für die Auseinandersetzung mit der kolonialen Vergangenheit adaptiert. Ich schlage vor, dies als provenienzzentrierte Aufarbeitung zu bezeichnen, und zeige, dass diese begonnen hat, die Konturen der Vergangenheitsaufarbeitung in Deutschland neu zu gestalten.

    Abstract: Dieser Artikel basiert auf einer ethnographischen Forschung zum Masterplan Solarcity Berlin und fragt, welche Vorstellung von Stadt diesem zugrunde liegt und wie dadurch eine Solarwende imaginiert wird. Ich schaue auf die premises und promises, die der Masterplan durch das Zusammenbringen bestimmter Ontologien der Stadt und Visionen der Solarwende macht. In dem Versuch, den Masterplan in einem Kontext von Low Carbon Transitions zu verorten, diskutiere ich die Imaginationen, die die Sonne als Energieträgerin infrastrukturieren bzw. urbanisieren. Diese Transformation kennzeichnet sich durch eine Auseinandersetzung mit zwei zentralen Spannungsfelder, nämlich zwischen Zentralität und Dezentralität und zwischen Individuum und Gemeinschaft. Der Aufsatz erkundet so die Zukunftsvisionen und Versprechungen, die mit der Urbanisierung von Sonne verbunden sind und welche Rolle die Idee von Solarity als Zusammendenken von Solar und Solidarität spielt, indem Power gleichzeitig als Energie und als Macht verstanden wird.

    Abstract: „The ethic and practice of attentiveness is key to the ethic and practice of care”, states Anna Krzywoszynska, an environmental social scientist researching the relationship between humans and soils in rural contexts. For urban settings, however, a lack of soil awareness as identified by soil scientists and STS scholars seems to contrast with residents’ manifold practices of care for more-than-human matters, entities and species that are dependent on soil. This contribution draws on interviews with community gardeners and residents in two Berlin neighbourhoods – Neukölln and Mitte – where soils have figured either in the context of planting and cultivating, or in the context of soil unsealing and green infrastructure projects. From our research, we suggest that the study of certain mediators amidst the human-soil relationship – in our case dogs and plants – provides new insights into the entanglements of soil awareness, attentiveness, and care in urban settings.

    Abstract: Das Lausitzer Kohlerevier soll zur Auflugs- und Urlaubsregion für Großstädter werden. Stillgelegte Tagebaue werden mit Wasser geflutet und so das Lausitzer Seenland gestaltet. Gleichzeitig führt hier ein komplexes Zusammenspiel hydrochemischer, geologischer und technischer Prozesse dazu, dass sich Jahrzehnte nach dem Schließen eines Großteils der Tagebaue Gewässer in der Region braun färben – das Phänomen wird Braune Spree genannt. In diesem Artikel nehme ich diese Bergbaufolgelandschaften als spezifisch anthropozäne Landschaften in den Blick. Dabei arbeite ich Reibungen zwischen den vermeintlich ‚blühenden Landschaften‘ der zukünftigen Tourismusregion und den unintendierten Auswirkungen des Kohleabbaus – die ich mit Tsing et al. als feral dynamics (zu Deutsch ungezähmte Dynamiken) fasse – heraus. Durch den Blick auf diese Reibungen wird deutlich, wie sich in der Inszenierung der Gestaltung des Lausitzer Seenlands eine Fortschrittserzählung fortzuschreiben scheint, die wiederum durch das Phänomen Braune Spree verunsichert wird.

    Abstract: In diesem Artikel argumentiere ich dafür, postsozialistische Debatten um einen Blick auf Repressions- und Herrschaftsgeschichte der DDR und ihre Verhandlung an Gedenk- und Erinnerungsorten zu erweitern. Anhand meiner ethnografischen Forschung am Lernort Keibelstraße, einer ehemaligen DDR-Untersuchungshaftanstalt des Ministeriums des Inneren, untersuche ich die Herausforderungen und Möglichkeitsräume einer machtkritischen Erinnerung an die Repressions- und Herrschaftsgeschichte der DDR. Wie können sich in Erinnerungen an die DDR die westhegemoniale Perspektive der Wendezeit und das in der DDR verübte Unrecht zueinander verhalten? Der Lernort Keibelstraße oszilliert hier zwischen der Anerkennung von Unrechtserfahrungen auf der einen und der Irritation westhegemonialer Narrative auf der anderen Seite. Die historisch-politische Bildung am Ort eröffnet dabei eine besondere Möglichkeit für die Gleichzeitigkeit dieser Perspektiven. In einer multidirektionalen Erinnerung (Rothberg 2009) an DDR- und BRD-Vergangenheit werden eine westdeutsche Überlegenheitserzählung hinterfragbar, Haft in der BRD als Objekt von Erinnerung hergestellt und Visionen von Gerechtigkeit für Gegenwart und Zukunft eröffnet.
    Abstract: In this article, I argue for expanding postsocialist debates by looking at the history of rule and repression in the GDR and its negotiations at sites of memory and commemoration. Based on my ethnographic research at the Lernort Keibelstraße, a former detention center of the GDR’s Interior Ministry and now a place for historical-political education, I examine the challenges and possibilities of a power-critical remembrance of the history of rule and repression in the GDR. How can the Western hegemonic perspective of the fall of communism and the injustice committed in the GDR relate to each other in GDR memories? Lernort Keibelstraße oscillates here between acknowledging experiences of injustice on the one hand and irritating Western hegemonic narratives on the other. Historical-political education at the site opens up a special opportunity for the simultaneity of these perspectives. In a multidirectional remembrance (Rothberg 2009) of the GDR and FRG pasts, a West German narrative of superiority can be questioned, imprisonment in the FRG can be produced as an object of remembrance, and visions of justice for the present and future can be opened up.

    Keywords: downsizing ; home swapping ; elderly ; housing consumption ; housing policy ; Soziologie und Anthropologie
    Abstract: The current global trend of increasing per capita living space in combination with more and smaller households will intensify resource and energy consumptions in the housing sector. Scientific scholars, thus, unanimously plead for a reduction of per capita living consumption. Since the demographic trend of aging will further contribute to a high increase of single households and cause further under-occupation of living space, the potential to spatially downsize is particularly high among those older age cohorts. However, the often-limited housing choices for seniors do not allow for a large-scale downsizing development. Beyond that, the discourse on housing downsizing lacks a discussion of distinct strategies of how to effectively offer options for older people to do so. Hence, the paper at hand presents the distinct instrument of home swapping which has lately been introduced by several German municipalities to more adequately allocate the existing housing space. Since a profound scientific debate of this approach is still pending, this contribution discusses home swapping as a suitable strategy to incentivize older households to downsize on their living space. In order to do so, the home swapping schemes of four German cities have been analyzed to add scientific evidence on the potentials and challenges of the instrument to downsize housing consumption.

    Abstract: Wie beeinflusst urbanes Leben unsere psychische Gesundheit? Und wie wirkt sich andersherum der Umgang mit psychischer Gesundheit auf das Zusammenleben in Städten aus? In seiner ethnografischen Feldforschung in Berlin untersucht Patrick Bieler, wie Menschen, die mit schweren psychischen Problemen leben, ihren Alltag bewältigen, und er betrachtet, wie das dortige sozialpsychiatrische Versorgungssystem mit den Herausforderungen des angespannten Wohnungsmarktes umgeht. Der ethnografische Blick auf die Entstehungsbedingungen und gesundheitlichen Auswirkungen urbaner Umwelten schafft eine sozialwissenschaftlich fundierte Perspektive auf bekannte Alltagsphänomene. Aus dem dichten Verständnis urbaner Lebensbedingungen und ihrer politischen Dimensionen ergeben sich Konsequenzen für zukünftige Stadtgestaltung und interdisziplinäre Forschung.

    Abstract: Homosexuelle werden zunehmend ins populistische »Wir« der äußersten Rechten integriert. Der Kulturanthropologe Patrick Wielowiejski hat eine Gruppe schwuler Mitglieder der »Alternative für Deutschland« (AfD) zwei Jahre lang begleitet. Ausgehend von ihren Narrativen und Praktiken analysiert er in dieser »Ethnografie der Feindschaft« das politische Imaginäre der gegenwärtigen Rechten. Dabei wird deutlich, dass die Grenze zwischen »normal« und »pervers« hier nicht mehr zwischen »Hetero« und »Homo« gezogen wird, sondern zwischen essentialistischen und emanzipatorischen Lebensentwürfen und Praktiken. Zugleich reflektiert Wielowiejski kritisch seine Forschungserfahrungen und ermöglicht so einen nuancierten Einblick in ein politisches Feld, das den demokratischen Zusammenhalt immer mehr bedroht.

    Abstract: Opinion formation within society follows complex dynamics. Towards its understanding, axiomatic theory can complement data analysis. To this end, we propose an axiomatic model of opinion formation that aims to capture the interaction of individual conviction with social influence in a minimalist fashion. Despite only representing that (1) agents have an initial conviction with respect to a topic and are (2) influenced by their neighbours, the model shows the emergence of opinion clusters from an initially unstructured state. Here, we show that increasing individual self-reliance makes agents more likely to align their socially influenced opinion with their inner conviction which concomitantly leads to increased polarisation. The opinion drift observed with increasing self-reliance may be a plausible analogue of polarisation trends in the real-world. Modelling the basic traits of striving for individual versus group identity, we find a trade-off between individual fulfilment and societal cohesion. This finding from fundamental assumptions can serve as a building block to explain opinion polarisation.

    Abstract: Cities increasingly address climate change, e.g. by pledging city-level emission reduction targets. This is puzzling for the provision of a global public good: what are city governments’ reasons for doing so, and do pledges actually translate into emission reductions? Empirical studies have found a set of common factors which relate to these questions, but also mixed evidence. What is still pending is a theoretical framework to explain those findings and gaps. This paper thus develops a theoretical public choice model. It features economies of scale and distinguishes urban reduction targets from actual emission reductions. The model is able to explain the presence of targets and public good provision, yet only under specified conditions. It is also able to support some stylized facts from the empirical literature, e.g. on the effect of city size, and resolves some mixed evidence as special cases. Larger cities chose more ambitious targets if marginal net benefits of mitigation rise with city size—if they set targets at all. Whether target setting is more likely for larger cities depends on the city type. Two types are obtained. The first type reduces more emissions than a free-riding city. Those cities are more likely to set a target when they are larger. However, they miss the self-chosen target. Cities of the second type reach their target, but mitigate less than a free-riding city. A third type does not exist. With its special cases, the model can thus guide further empirical and theoretical work.

    Abstract: Within the migration system, the seminal Foresight report highlighted that climate change can have significant implications for staying populations. Yet research on this remains limited. This study aims to fill this gap by assessing the impacts of sustained outmigration on staying farmer communities in the Indian Himalayan Region, affected by incremental climate change. Employing an empirical qualitative approach, new data is collected through semi-structured interviews ( n  = 72). Staying communities describe migration as good, bad, and necessary with the majority (46%) noting negative impacts such as fewer people to do agriculture, abandoned assets, more tasks for women, loss of community, disrupted household structures, mental health implications for the elderly, and disinvestment in public services. While remittances from migration have positive impacts, they are primarily used for meeting everyday needs (81%) and not invested in climate change adaptation. In addition to migration impacts, changing weather patterns, agricultural shifts, and societal transformations further exacerbate the vulnerabilities of staying populations. Without policy support to address these vulnerabilities, the benefits of migration may not effectively contribute to climate change adaptation. The findings here are likely applicable to staying populations in other mountain areas, facing similar pressures from migration and climate change, underscoring the need for targeted interventions to build long-term adaptive capacity.

    Abstract: Disruptive events and calamities can have major consequences for households in the predominantly agrarian communities of Eastern Africa. Here, we analyze the impacts of environmental and non-environmental shocks on migration in Tanzania using panel models and longitudinal data from the Tanzania National Panel Survey between 2008 and 2013. Shocks are defined as events that lead to losses in income, assets, or both. We find shocks resulting from changes in environmental conditions to be positively related to migration over time with more recent shocks exerting the strongest impact. According to our estimates, the probability of having a household member absent increases by 0.81% with each additional environmental shock encountered in the past 12 months. Different types of shocks have differential effects on migration with the strongest effects being observed for shocks with an immediate impact on household livelihoods, including through livestock losses and crop damage. Households in the sample are differently affected with rural, agriculturally dependent, and poor households without alternative income sources showing the strongest changes in their migration behavior in response to shocks. Our study adds important insights into the relationship between disruptive events and migration in Eastern Africa considering a broad time window and the compounding influence of different shock types. Our findings have a range of policy implications highlighting the need for a comprehensive perspective on household responses in times of distress that considers the interplay of different shock types as well as the role of context in shaping mobility patterns.

    Abstract: Die Unterschiede und Ungleichheiten zwischen Ost- und Westdeutschland wurden nach der Deutschen Einheit als Übergangsstadium verstanden; insbesondere Mentalitätsunterschiede sollten sich im Laufe der Jahre angleichen. Der Beitrag analysiert, wie Ost- und Westdeutsche das Verhältnis zueinander wahrnehmen und inwiefern sich hier Kohortenunterschiede zeigen. Konzeptionell unterscheiden wir drei zentrale Hypothesen, die jeweils eigene empirische Muster nahelegen. Die Sozialisationshypothese geht davon aus, dass es durch die deutsche Teilung einerseits, aber auch durch das Aufwachsen im Staatssozialismus und die Transformationserfahrungen in Ostdeutschland andererseits wahrnehmungsprägende Erfahrungen gibt, die allerdings für nachfolgende Kohorten an Relevanz verlieren. Die Othering-Hypothese besagt, dass sich Ost-West-Differenzen durch Reaktanz auf die (auch diskursive) Dominanz der westdeutschen Mehrheitsgesellschaft immer wieder erneuern und somit für alle Altersgruppen in Ost und West salient bleiben. Die These ostdeutscher Persistenz und Verhärtung schließlich vermutet, dass es nicht zwingend darauf ankommt, selbst in der DDR gelebt zu haben, sondern dass ein ostdeutsches Narrativ in Familien und sozialen Netzwerken weitergegeben wird. Die Salienz des Themas sollte demnach vor allem im Osten nach wie vor hoch sein. Mit neuen Daten aus dem Jahr 2022 können wir zeigen, dass die deutsch-deutschen Trennlinien in der Kohortenfolge unter jungen Westdeutschen verblassen, bei den jungen Ostdeutschen dagegen ein Fortwirken von Unterschieds- und Konfliktwahrnehmungen erkennbar ist. Die Ergebnisse deuten auf die These der ostdeutschen Persistenz und Verhärtung hin, wohingegen für die Westdeutschen die Sozialisationshypothese plausibel erscheint.
    Abstract: The differences and inequalities between the former East and West Germany were understood as a transitional stage after German unification; in particular, differences in mentality were expected to converge over the years. The aim of this article is to use new data to examine cohort differences in how Germans living in the former East and West perceive each other. Conceptually, we distinguish three central hypotheses, each suggesting its own empirical patterns. The socialization hypothesis assumes that growing up in a divided country—and in particular for the former East Germans who experienced state socialism and the transformation—has led to attitudes that lose their relevance for subsequent cohorts. The othering hypothesis states that East–West differences are constantly renewed through reactance to (discursive) dominance of the Western German majority society and thus remain salient for all age groups in the East and the West. Finally, the thesis of East German persistence and hardening assumes that it is not necessarily important to have lived in the German Democratic Republic oneself, but that an East German narrative is passed on in families and social networks. The salience of the topic should therefore still be high in the East. With original survey data from 2022, we can show that the German–German dividing lines in the cohort sequence fade among young Western Germans, whereas among young Eastern Germans a persistence of perceptions of difference and conflict is discernible. The results point to the thesis of East German persistence and hardening, whereas for Western Germans the pattern of the socialization hypothesis is plausible.

    Abstract: The growing use of social media field experiments demands a rethink of current research ethics in computational social science and psychological research. Here, we provide an exploratory empirical account of key user concerns and outline a number of critical discussions that need to take place to protect participants and help researchers to make use of the novel opportunities of digital data collection and field studies. Our primary contention is that we need to elicit public perceptions to devise more up-to-date guidelines for review boards whilst also allowing and encouraging researchers to arrive at more ethical individual study design choices themselves. To ground our discussion in real-world examples of online experiments, we focus on recent social media studies in the field of misinformation, polarization, and hate speech research. We conclude by discussing how we can better strike a balance between meeting ethical guidelines and the concerns of social media users alongside maximizing scientific impact and credibility.

    Abstract: Processes that unfold over individuals’ life courses are often associated with inequalities later in life. The literature lacks methodological approaches to analyze inequalities in outcomes between groups, for example, between women and men, in a life-course-sensitive manner. We propose a combination of methods—of sequence analysis, which enables us to study the multidimensional complexity of life courses with Kitagawa–Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition. This approach allows us to distinguish the share of inequalities between groups that is due to group-specific life courses from the share that is due to group-specific returns to similar life courses. We illustrate the combination of the two methods by analyzing work–family life courses and gender pension gaps in Italy and Germany. Our contribution is to systematically compare possible core analytical choices when combining typologies derived using sequence analysis with the Kitagawa–Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition. For future applications, we propose a set of practical guidelines for sequence analysis–Kitagawa–Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition.

    Abstract: Die Digitalisierung der Wirtschaft sorgt für eine Dynamisierung der politischen Ökonomie. Neue und etablierte Akteur:innen konkurrieren um die Kontrolle digitalisierter Wertschöpfungsketten. Der vorliegende Beitrag unternimmt eine erste Strukturanalyse der Eliten dieses Feldes in Deutschland. Für die Untersuchung werden Lebensläufe und Netzwerke von 254 Personen analysiert, die Schlüsselpositionen im Kontext der Digitalisierung der deutschen Wirtschaft einnehmen. Es wird geprüft, inwiefern die Koordinations- und Personalstruktur des Feldes von Logiken der Transnationalisierung und Finanzialisierung geprägt ist, die für die digitale Ökonomie leitend sind. An einigen Stellen lässt sich eine Anpassung von Reproduktionsstrategien an die veränderten Spielregeln der Digitalisierung beobachten: so bei der zunehmenden Verbreitung kurzer Auslandsaufenthalte oder beim Bedeutungsgewinn finanzialisierter Managementkompetenz in der New Economy. Die Grundpfeiler der deutschen Elitenreproduktion bleiben jedoch unangetastet. Im Gegensatz zu soziologischen Erwägungen, die schon im Kontext der Globalisierung einen Bedeutungsverlust nationaler Eliten erwarteten, zeigt sich: Erstens besteht in Deutschlands digitalisierter Wirtschaft ein nationales industrielles Netzwerk von Spitzenmanager:innen fort, welches über Aufsichtsräte sowie Konsultations- und Verbandsgremien integriert ist. Zweitens konnten kaum Ausländer:innen in die digitale Elite aufrücken und finden prägende Karriereschritte überwiegend im Inland statt. Drittens dominieren weiterhin charakteristische Merkmale der deutschen Elitenformation – wie Hauskarrieren, das Studium an deutschsprachigen Massenuniversitäten oder die Möglichkeit von Karrieren, die auf technischer Kompetenz beruhen. Diese Ergebnisse sprechen dafür, dass die angestammten Eliten der deutschen Wirtschaft durch eine inkrementelle Anpassung ihrer Reproduktionsstrategien ihre Positionen auch im digitalen Kapitalismus behalten.
    Abstract: Digitalisation of the economy means dynamisation of the political economy. New and established players are competing for control of digitalised value chains. This article undertakes a first structural analysis of the elites in this field in Germany. The study analyses the CVs and networks of 254 individuals who occupy key positions in the context of the digitalisation of the German economy. It examines to which extent the coordination and personnel structure of the field is shaped by the logics of transnationalisation and financialisation. In some places, an adaptation of reproduction strategies to the changed rules of digitalisation can be observed: for example, in the increasing prevalence of short stays abroad or the growing importance of financialised management skills in the new economy. However, the cornerstones of German elite reproduction remain untouched. In contrast to sociological considerations which already expected a loss of importance of national elites in the context of globalisation, the following is evident: Firstly, a national industrial network of top managers continues to exist in Germany’s digitalised economy, which is integrated via supervisory boards as well as advisory bodies and association structures. Secondly, hardly any foreigners have been able to move up into the digital elite and formative career steps take place predominantly in Germany. Transnationalisation and financialisation have found their way into the personal careers of digital elites in Germany, but to a rather limited extent, especially in the industrial core. Thirdly, characteristic features of the German elite formation continue to dominate – such as careers at home, studying at German-language mass universities, or the possibility of careers based on technical expertise. These results suggest that the traditional elites of the German economy, by incrementally adapting their reproduction strategies, will retain their positions in digital capitalism.

    Abstract: Objective: Aiming to generate evidence on how contextual conditions shape individuals' opportunities and constraints and, ultimately, life courses, we focus on a period of childcare expansion in reunified Germany. We investigate differences in employment trajectories around mothers' first childbirths to identify potential East–West convergence. Background: During Germany's division (1949–1990), universal public childcare and female full‐time employment were the norm in East Germany, while the male breadwinner model was dominant in the West. These differences, although declining, persisted even decades after reunification. In 2008, a reform aimed at expanding childcare availability to facilitate mothers' employment throughout the country. Methods: We measure East–West differences in employment trajectories around childbirth pre‐ (1990–2007) and post‐reform (2008–2021) in terms of timing, order, and duration of events over time. We use data on 359 East and 986 West German first‐time‐mothers from the German Socio‐Economic Panel and sequence analysis tools. Results: Before the reform, employment trajectories between East and West German mothers differed both in timing and duration of employment states. After the reform, these differences decreased, showing a general convergence in the prevalence of post‐birth part‐time employment. Nonetheless, longer maternity leave is still more prevalent among West German mothers, while East German mothers are more likely to maintain full‐time jobs. Conclusion: Our findings show how policy settings and reforms shape life courses in a context‐dependent fashion. They illustrate the importance of a methodological approach that focuses on process outcomes and supports a theoretical perspective that highlights how historical time and place shape life courses.

    Abstract: While German migration policies aim to provide temporary protection and integrate Ukrainian refugees into German society as early as possible, the procedures and ideas of integration might be perceived differently by the beneficiaries. The feeling of “permanent temporariness” has been persistent among Ukrainians since March 2022. In this situation, some of the refugees renounce their agency and put responsibility on decision-making onto the state, while others oppose the idea of “being integrated” since they see their time in Germany as temporary, and their future in Ukraine as soon as the security situation allows them to return. Drawing on the experiences of single Ukrainian women who received protection in Germany, the paper presents an anthropological perspective on person–state interactions in the context of refugees’ future-planning. How do German policies for supporting Ukrainian refugees impact their “stay or return” decision-making? Do the policies address their needs now and allow them to make investments for the future, or, on the contrary, contribute to their decision to return to Ukraine, which appears to be “simpler” and “more predictable”? How does the experience of going through bureaucratic procedures contribute to the sense of having agency and being capable of shaping their today and tomorrow? To answer these questions, I am going to present the reasonings and emotions concerning bureaucratic procedures that are closely intertwined with the planning of their future by Ukrainian refugees in Germany.

    Abstract: Nach einem Workshop zum Thema „The struggle over the public sphere“ mit Nancy Fraser am Berliner Center for Social Critique im Juni 2022 ergab sich im November des gleichen Jahres die Möglichkeit, die Diskussion mit ihr fortzusetzen. Das nachfolgend dokumentierte Gespräch beleuchtet das Verhältnis zwischen den „subalternen Gegenöffentlichkeiten“ und der Öffentlichkeit im Allgemeinen, den Aufstieg rechter Gegenöffentlichkeiten und die Auswirkungen der sogenannten „sozialen Medien“ auf die Öffentlichkeit. Das führt zu der Frage, wie Öffentlichkeiten im Kapitalismus verortet und wie sie in der Lage sind, Themen zu politisieren, die in kapitalistischen Gesellschaften traditionell als privat gelten. Im Gespräch verbindet Fraser ihre früheren öffentlichkeitstheoretischen Überlegungen mit ihrer aktuellen Kapitalismustheorie. Dies ist besonders interessant im Hinblick auf die dringende politische Aufgabe, eine erweiterte und nicht-essenzialistische Identität der Arbeiter*innenklasse zu bilden, die in der Lage ist, verschiedene „Gesichter der Arbeit“ zu vermitteln, wie sie es in ihren Benjamin-Vorlesungen ausdrückt.
    Abstract: Following a workshop on “The struggle over the public sphere” with Nancy Fraser at the Berlin Centre for Social Critique in June 2022, the opportunity arose to continue the discussion with her in November of the same year. The conversation documented below sheds light on the relationship between “subaltern counter-publics” and the public sphere in general, the rise of right-wing counter-publics and the impact of so-called “social media” on the public sphere. That leads to the question of how publics are situated in capitalism and how they are able to politicise issues that are traditionally considered private in capitalist societies. In the interview, Fraser combines her earlier public sphere theory with her current theory of capitalism. This is particularly interesting in light of the urgent political task of forming an expanded and non-essentialist working class identity capable of mediating different “faces of labour”, as she puts it in her Benjamin lectures.

    Abstract: Als Prinzip für die Herstellung und Legitimation sozialer Ordnung gilt Meritokratie entweder als normativer Maßstab moderner Gesellschaften oder als eine von der Empirie sozialer Ungleichheiten laufend widerlegte Ideologie. Der Beitrag wählt einen anderen Ausgangspunkt und widmet sich den Herausforderungen der konkreten Umsetzung des abstrakten Leistungsprinzips. Anhand von Berufungsakten zu 145 Berufungsverfahren aus der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts wird ein spezifisches Problem rekonstruiert: Meritokratie ist in Berufungsverfahren nicht das einzige Prinzip zur Herstellung und Legitimation sozialer Ordnung. Die Besetzung von Professuren ist nicht nur an der Bestenauslese, sondern auch an der sozialen Passung von Kandidatinnen und Kandidaten orientiert. In der Praxis entsteht so das Ordnungsproblem, die Orientierung an Leistung mit der Orientierung an sozialer Passung zu vereinbaren. Der Beitrag zeigt, erstens, dass dieses Problem überhaupt erst entsteht, als das meritokratische Prinzip in den 1970er-Jahren so verbindlich wird, dass Leistungszuschreibungen die alleingültige Rechtfertigung für Berufungsentscheidungen sind. Zweitens wird herausgearbeitet, wie Gutachterinnen und Gutachter und Kommissionen mit diesem Ordnungsproblem umgehen und die meritokratische Bestenauslese in Berufungsverfahren mit der sozialen Passung von Kandidatinnen und Kandidaten vereinbaren. Der Beitrag trägt zu einem differenzierteren Verständnis des Leistungsprinzips bei, indem er praktische Probleme bei der konkreten Umsetzung des meritokratischen Prinzips beleuchtet.
    Abstract: As a principle for the establishment and legitimation of social order, meritocracy is regarded either as a normative standard of modern societies or as an ideology that is constantly refuted by the empirical evidence of social inequalities. This article proceeds from a different starting point and focuses on the challenges that emerge when the abstract principle of meritocracy is put into practice. Drawing on archived files of 145 professorial appointment procedures from the second half of the 20th century, the article reveals a specific problem: Meritocracy is not the only principle applied to establish and legitimize social order in appointment procedures. Professorial hiring is oriented not only toward selecting the best candidates but also toward their social fit. In practice, it is necessary to reconcile both principles, the orientation toward merit and the orientation toward social fit. The article shows, first, that this problem of social order first arose in the 1970s when the meritocratic principle became so binding that merit was the sole justification for appointment decisions. Second, it reveals how reviewers and committees dealt with this problem and reconciled the meritocratic selection of the best with the social fit of candidates. The article contributes to a more nuanced understanding of the principle of meritocracy by shedding light on problems in the practical accomplishment of the principle.

    Abstract: Im Mittelpunkt dieses Beitrags stehen performative Artikulationen von Psychiatriekritik bei Demonstrationen: Wir betrachten Mad Pride-Paraden, die in verschiedenen deutschen Städten seit 2013 durchgeführt werden, in Relation zu Aktionen der Bremer „Blauen Karawane“ – einer Bewegung, die in den 1980er Jahren im Zuge der Auflösung einer psychiatrischen Großklinik entstand. Obwohl sie in unterschiedlichen zeitlich-lokalen Kontexten situiert sind, setzen beide auf Formen des Straßenprotests, um die Grenzziehung zwischen „normal“ und „verrückt“ infrage zu stellen und die gleichberechtigte Anerkennung psychischer Alterität voranzubringen. Eine detaillierte Untersuchung der Aktionsformen unterstreicht die Bedeutung von karnevaleskem Feiern, Provokationen und Spektakel für beide Formen der Psychiatriekritik. Wir argumentieren, dass diese Formen Kritik erfahrbar und zugleich Entwürfe einer anderen – besseren – Gesellschaft greifbar machen. Um diese Aspekte herauszuarbeiten, greifen wir auf queer- und gendertheoretische Überlegungen sowie auf Ansätze der Performance Studies zurück. Die Betrachtung von Mad Pride-Paraden und Blauer Karawane in ihren jeweiligen Kontexten offenbart Ähnlichkeiten in der Art und Weise, wie Kritik am Ausschluss von psychischer Alterität geübt wird, macht aber auch Unterschiede in Hinblick auf Betroffenheit, Teilhabe und Argumentationen deutlich.
    Abstract: This article focuses on performative articulations of critiques of psychiatry, with two forms of demonstration in particular: First, the Mad Pride Parades, which have been held in various German cities since 2013, and second actions by the “Blaue Karawane” in Bremen, a movement that emerged in the 1980s in the wake of the dissolution of a psychiatric clinic. Although they are situated in different temporal and local contexts, both rely on forms of street protest to question the demarcation between ‘normal’ and ‘mad’ and to promote the equal recognition of mental alterity. A detailed examination of the forms of action highlights the importance of carnivalesque celebration, provocation and spectacle for both forms of psychiatric critique. We argue that these forms allow experiencing this critique and, at the same time, make drafts of a different—better—society tangible. To elaborate on these aspects, we draw on queer and gender theoretical considerations as well as on approaches from performance studies. Looking at Mad Pride parades and the Blaue Karawane in their respective contexts reveals similarities in the way in which critique of the exclusion of mental alterity is articulated, but also highlights differences in terms of affectedness, participation and argumentation.

    Abstract: How does digitalization transform the macroeconomic production function? Using a model where firms can choose their technology, we find that sectors with more digital capital exhibit a higher elasticity of substitution between value added and intermediate inputs and between capital and labor. This shift in the elasticity of substitution is consistent with a higher complementarity of input-specific technologies on the technology frontier. We further show that the link between technological complementarity and digital intensity can be rationalized using a task-based approach. Out of the three types of digital capital, only the levels of information technology and software/databases have a significant impact on the production function, whereas communication technology has no effects. We also find that digital technical change in value added is Hicks-neutral.

    Abstract: Although social learning (SL) conceptualization and implementation are flourishing in sustainability sciences, and its non-rigid conceptual fluidity is regarded as an advantage, research must advance the understanding of SL phenomenon patterns based on empirical data, thus contributing to the identification of its forms and triggering mechanisms, particularly those that can address urgent Anthropocene socio-ecological problems. This study aims to discover fundamental patterns along which SL in natural resources management differs by identifying SL archetypes and establishing correlations between the SL process and overall geopolitical conditions. Using a systematic literature review comprising 137 case studies in the five continents, content analysis, and correlations were performed. Results show two main archetypes of social learning (endogenous and exogenous). Their occurrence was linked, to where social learning occurs and how venues/preconditions for social learning are placed. In the Global South, endogenous SL should be better potentialized as a catalyzer of deliberative processes for sustainable natural resources management.

    Abstract: This paper examines the impact of exposure to violence during pregnancy on anthropometric and cognitive outcomes of children in the medium run. I combine detailed household-level data on more than 36,000 children with geo-coded information on civilian casualties in the aftermath of the US invasion of Iraq between 2003 and 2009 and exploit within-mother differences in prenatal exposure to violence. I find that one violent incident during pregnancy decreases height- and weight-for-age z-scores by 0.13 standard deviations and lowers cognitive and behavioral skills of children. Leveraging information on the severity, type and perpetrator of violence, I isolate the effect of stress from access to prenatal care. The analysis reveals that stressful events, particularly those involving direct threats to personal safety (violence directed at the civilian population and involving execution and torture), exert an even larger negative impact on child health than those incidents that disrupt health infrastructure and access to prenatal care.

    Abstract: "Rechercher les provenances coloniales" est une version légèrement abrégée du rapport final du projet de recherche sur les provenances des collections provenant du Togo sous la domination coloniale allemande, qui se trouvent aujourd'hui dans les musées des Staatlichen Ethnographischen Sammlungen Sachsen (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden). Le projet, soutenu par le Deutsches Zentrum Kulturgutverluste, était centré sur un ensemble de 700 "objets" et photographies qui ont été achetés ou donnés au Museum für Völkerkunde Dresden et au GRASSI Museum für Völkerkunde zu Leipzig entre 1899 et 1939. Le projet s'est penché sur les histoires de leur appropriation, en lien avec les activités des membres de la police coloniale allemande, des scientifiques, des commerçants et des fonctionnaires coloniaux au Togo sous la domination coloniale allemande de 1884 à 1914. Les acteurs coloniaux en question sont Adolf Diehl, Hans Gruner, Harry Grunitzky, Ernst F. Gütschow, Oskar Marx, Valentin von Massow, Adam Mischlich et Gaston Thierry. Ceux-ci agissaient dans le cadre du contexte d'injustice coloniale, marqué par des expéditions d'annexion, des guerres de conquête ainsi que par le prosélytisme et l'appropriation de biens culturels. Les résultats de la recherche sont publiés dans la Online Collection des Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden et, dans une version plus détaillée du rapport final, dans la base de données Proveana du Deutsches Zentrum Kulturgutverluste. Situé dans le domaine plus récent de la recherche postcoloniale sur la provenance des biens, le rapport se veut une contribution à l'étude de l'histoire des musées d'ethnographie et de leurs vastes réseaux dans le contexte colonial. En découvrant les liens étroits entre les musées et le projet d'expansion et de domination coloniale, il souligne également la responsabilité des musées dans le traitement de l'histoire coloniale.
    Abstract: "Researching Colonial Provenances" is a slightly abridged version of the final report of the research project on the provenances of the collections from Togo under German colonial rule, currently in the holdings of the museums of the Staatliche Ethnographische Sammlungen Sachsen (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden). The project, funded by the German Lost Art Foundation, focused on a collection of 700 "objects" and photographs that were acquired for or donated to the Museum für Völkerkunde Dresden and the GRASSI Museum für Völkerkunde zu Leipzig between 1899 and 1939. The project focused on the stories of their appropriation in connection with the activities of German members of the colonial police force, scientists, traders and colonial officials in Togo under German colonial rule from 1884 to 1914. The colonial actors in question are Adolf Diehl, Hans Gruner, Harry Grunitzky, Ernst F. Gütschow, Oskar Marx, Valentin von Massow, Adam Mischlich and Gaston Thierry. They acted within the context of colonial injustice, which was characterised by annexation expeditions, wars of conquest, missionary work and the appropriation of cultural items. The results of the research are published in the Online Collection of the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden and in a more detailed version of the final report in the Proveana database of the German Lost Art Foundation. Situated in the more recent field of post-colonial provenance research, the report is intended as a contribution to research into the history of ethnological museums and their extensive networks in a colonial context. With its findings on the close connection between museums and the project of colonial expansion and rule, it also emphasises the responsibility that museums have in accounting for their entanglement with colonial history.

    Abstract: The conditions upon which young adults enter the labor market have been demonstrated to affect various later-life employment and family formation outcomes. After the 2008–2009 Global Financial Crisis, a thick strand of the literature has shown that precarious initial employment leads to postponed childbearing and higher ultimate childlessness. However, it is not only individual conditions that matter. Broader macroeconomic conditions upon entry also matter. The “scarring” literature has illustrated the consequences of entering the labor market during a recession on later life outcomes. Speaking to both strands and using detailed employment and birth histories of labor market entrants in Germany, this paper examines the effects of initial conditions, operationalized using fixed-term employment and recession year entry, on subsequent fertility behavior. To partly address bias from endogenous selection into initial conditions, we employ a two-step estimation strategy combining a non-parametric optimal full matching step and a parametric event history modeling step using the matched data. Results suggest that entering the labor market with a fixed-term contract is persistently and negatively associated with first births up to a decade after entry, and this pattern is pronounced only among women, whereas entering during a recession has persistent negative associations only among men.

    Keywords: Masculinity ; Femininity ; Gender ideals ; Migrant youth ; Racial othering ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: The debates at the nexus of migration and gender often focus on the supposedly diverging ideals Muslims and Christians have about gender. Migrant femininities and masculinities are framed in contrast to liberal, Western values and they undermine the efforts for more gender equality in Western societies. Only a few studies have addressed non-Muslim migrants' construction of, and their perceptions of, the femininities and masculinities of others. To fill this gap, we present the findings of a qualitative social research project where 43 young people aged 16 to 29 shared with us their perceptions regarding gender ideals. In our analysis, we utilize theories developed within women's studies and critical men and masculinities scholarship and adopt an intersectional lens to investigate how young first- and second-generation migrants in Berlin with roots in different world regions imagine their own and others' ideals of masculinity and femininity. Like non-migrant youth, our research participants want their life partnerships to be based on gender equality. Contrary to this, their ideals of femininity and masculinity embrace traditional gender roles, and they mirror the racialized relations in German society. We do not argue that the migrant youth's gender ideals are significantly shaped by their ethnic or religious belonging, and thus they do differ from those of non-migrant youth. However, racial othering is relevant for these migrants' images of their life partners and should be taken under consideration while designing specific policies aimed at increasing levels of gender equality in multi-diverse societies.

    Keywords: Conflict ; Dynamics ; Escalation ; Reconciliation ; Democratic theory ; Sozialwissenschaften ; Wirtschaft
    Abstract: While democratic societies experience intense conflicts about topics such as migration and climate action, there is no sound theory of democratic conflict. Agonistic theories emphasize the importance of conflict for democracy, but disregard conflict dynamics. Conflict sociology has focused on international or violent conflicts and neglects democratic conflicts. This article shows how this lacuna can be overcome. First, it develops an innovative, empirically informed processual approach to democratic conflicts. To this end, it draws on a broad range of scholarship from sociology and social psychology, and integrates relevant insights into a processual framework for analyzing democratic conflicts that explores mechanisms of escalation, de-escalation, and reconciliation. Second, the article illustrates how this approach can ground a more elaborated democratic theory of conflict that concretizes how and when conflicts are beneficial to democracy, and explores the practices and institutions that democracies employ to cope with different conflict dynamics.

    Abstract: Objective: Theories about within‐person (WP) variation are often tested using between‐person (BP) research, despite the well‐established fact that results may not generalize across levels of analysis. One possible explanation is vague theories that do not specify which level of analysis is of interest. We illustrate such a case using the construct of self‐compassion. The factor structure at the BP level has been highly debated, although the theory is actually concerned with relationships at the WP level. Method: Multilevel confirmatory factor analysis was applied to experience‐sampling data of self‐compassion ( N  = 213, with n  = 4052 measurement occasions). Results: At both levels of analysis, evidence for a two‐factor model was found. However, the factors were moderately related at the WP level ( r  = 0.37, p  〈 0.001) but largely independent at the BP level ( r  = 0.04, p  = 0.696). Exploratory analyses revealed considerable heterogeneity in the WP relationship among individuals. Conclusion: We discuss how our results provide new impulses to move the debate around self‐compassion forward. Lastly, we outline how the WP level—which is of major interest for self‐compassion and other constructs in psychology—can guide the conceptualization and assessment to promote advancements of the theory and resulting applications.

    Abstract: Crystallographic fragment screening (CFS) has recently matured into an important method for the early stages of drug discovery projects. It is based on high‐throughput structure determination and thus requires a high degree of automation as well as specialized workflows and robust analysis tools. Consequently, large‐scale research facilities such as synchrotrons have embraced the method, and developed platforms to perform CFS campaigns with the help of crystallography experts and specific tools. The BESSY II synchrotron, operated by the Helmholtz–Zentrum Berlin (HZB), is one of these synchrotron facilities that offer a CFS platform, named the F2X‐facility. Here, the specialized F2X workflow is described along with the relevant differences to other existing CFS platforms, and the ongoing developments aimed at supporting users of the facility. The different stages of a CFS campaign including requirements, beamline capabilities, and the software environment are detailed and explained. A unique F2X‐GO kit is featured, which allows users the possibility of performing all sample preparation in their home laboratories. Furthermore, at the HZB a computational workflow has been built to support users beyond the hit identification stage. The advantages of the F2X‐facility at HZB are described and references are provided to successfully conduct CFS.

    Abstract: Wie stellt sich die Frage der Sichtbarkeit im historischen Archiv? Muss, was erinnert werden soll, materiell vorliegen? Viel Aufmerksamkeit ist Archiven als Ort der Gewalt und Machtinstrument gewidmet worden. Der Fokus auf das Funktionieren der Macht belässt jedoch die Unsichtbaren in der Unsichtbarkeit. Zugleich wird gezögert, die Lücken im Archiv mit positivem Wissen zu füllen, da dabei zu leicht in Vergessenheit gerät, dass die Lücken selbst Teil der Geschichte sind und dass sie weitreichende Folgen dafür haben, was gewusst werden kann. Wenn historische, koloniale Archive Repositorien der Gewalt sind, aber nicht der Leben derjenigen, die ihr ausgesetzt waren, wozu sich in und mit ihnen aufhalten? Es reicht nicht aus, so Saidiya Hartman, den Skandal aufzudecken. Viele wollen die Gewalt im Archiv daher nicht einfach stehen lassen oder in ihrer Darstellung wiederholen. Sie folgen stattdessen einem dringlichen Impuls zur Intervention. Trotz Archivskepsis wird sich weiterhin darum bemüht, die Unsichtbaren in den Archiven sichtbar, erinnerbar zu machen. Sichtbarkeit erfordert dabei nicht notwendiger Weise optische Wahrnehmbarkeit. Häufig geht es darum, etwas Verborgenes fühlbar zu machen, im Sinne eines expansiven Begriffs von Sichtbarkeit, der eine umfassende Wahrnehmbarkeit meint. In den folgenden Beispielen es geht sowohl darum, zu verstehen, wie Archivmacht funktioniert, als auch ihr etwas entgegenzusetzen. Sie sind von der affektiven Notwendigkeit motiviert, durch ein Verändern der Dokumente nicht so sehr die Vergangenheit um- oder neu zu schreiben, sondern für eine bessere zukünftige Wahrnehmung und Erinnerung zu sorgen. Interveniert wird auf der Ebene der Archivinstrumente – Text, Sprache, Zensur, die Archivpraktiken des Verdeckens und Offenbarens.

(4) Lehrkräfte sollten sich bewusst sein, dass solche positiven Verzerrungen keine adäquate Leistungsrückmeldung darstellen. (5) Sind positive Verzerrungen die Folge niedrigerer Erwartungen an diese Schüler:innen, kann sich dies auch nachteilig auf die Leistungsentwicklung der betroffenen Schüler:innen auswirken.

    Abstract: This paper is based on research conducted in February–April 2022. It describes and illuminates what was happening with tech-savvy educated people between 20 and 40 years old in Russia, while their usual digital tools and places for the autobiographical process were changing in the spring of 2022. Facing censorship of platforms, surveillance, and the inability to pay for services, people who were keeping important memories of their lives online were deleting their profiles, migrating to other platforms, censoring themselves, and creating archives of autobiographically meaningful materials. The paper examines these disruptions as a case that illuminates the role of online platforms in autobiographical memory and expands some concepts within autobiographical memory studies, such as evocative objects and autotopography.

    Abstract: Based on ethnographic research on an urban regeneration project targeting the historically Armenian quarter of a provincial capital in the Kurdish parts of Turkey, the article engages with two related, but separate strands of anthropological scholarship on the ‘fragmented’ nature of sovereignty to think through the relation of sovereignty and extraction. It does so, firstly, in relation to contemporary transformations of statecraft under conditions of financialised neoliberalism and authoritarianism, and secondly, in relation to the historically contingent constellation of property relations, racialisation and violence in the transition from Ottoman Empire to Turkish nation-state. The first leads me to argue that ‘fragmentation’ emerges here as a project internal to the practices of statecraft, that is, not primarily driven by market mechanisms, nor as something that extends beyond the nation-state. The historical account is offered as a case that further extends our scholarly archive of modern sovereignty as a global form intimately entangled with extraction and dispossession.

    Abstract: Rassistische Diskriminierung ist ein Angriff auf das Wohlbefinden, die Gesundheit, den Körper und die Würde des Menschen. Jede Reaktion darauf ist eine Überlebensstrategie. Selbst der Versuch, Diskriminierung zu ignorieren oder sie als normal zu empfinden. Stuart Hall (1996) beschreibt diesen Prozess als die Internalisierung des „self-as-other“ (S.445). Doch auch wenn Menschen sich wehren, Rassismus benennen und wenn sie Unterstützung suchen: Es gibt sie nicht, die eine Rassismuserfahrung. Denn Rassismus wirkt immer intersektional (vgl. Barskanmaz, 2020; Roig, 2021). Eine alleinerziehende Person of Color wird beispielsweise den Weg durch die Hochschule ganz anders erleben als ihre kinderlosen BIPoC Kommiliton*innen. Gleichzeitig gilt zu bedenken, dass Menschen, die Rassismus erfahren, unterschiedliche Strategien und Ressourcen haben, um damit umzugehen (vgl. Schneller, 2023). Vielleicht ist die Person aktivistisch, kann ihre und andere Mehrfachmarginalisierungen benennen und holt sich Unterstützung. Vielleicht hat sie gelernt, dass es besser ist, zu schweigen, weil sie sonst selbst zum Problem wird (vgl. Ahmed, 2021). Wird eine alleinerziehende Person of Color überhaupt von Rassismus sprechen, falls sie akademisch sozialisiert ist und sich in dieser Hinsicht vielleicht gar nicht so fremd an der Hochschule fühlt, aber dennoch Hilfe benötigt? Wer braucht welche Unterstützung und wie kann eine Antidiskriminierungsberatung betroffene Personen stärken, ohne dabei selbst diskriminierende Strukturen zu legitimieren und zu reproduzieren? Der vorliegende Artikel setzt hier an und führt entlang von Beispielen vier theoretische Grundlagen einer nachhaltigen Antidiskriminierungspraxis an Hochschulen aus. Er endet mit einem Ausblick zu nachhaltiger Antidiskriminierungsberatung. Dabei soll vorweggenommen werden, dass individuelle Beratung – selbstredend – allein nicht die Lösung des Problems sein kann. Sie ist notwendig, weil Diskriminierung stattfindet. Auf struktureller Ebene müssten Antidiskriminierungsmaßnahmen jedoch stets so gedacht werden, dass sie irgendwann überflüssig werden. Denn nicht die Diskriminierten sind das Problem, sondern die Strukturen, die sie zu Diskriminierten machen.

    Abstract: Der Einsatz von Dolmetscher*innen für deutsche Laut- und Gebärdensprache (GSD) im Unterricht stellt viele Lehrpersonen vor neue Chancen und Herausforderungen. Meist wurden die Lehrpersonen in der Ausbildung nicht auf ein solches Unterrichtssetting vorbereitet und der Umgang mit GSD und GSD nut-zenden Schüler*innen ist in der ersten Zeit ungewohnt. Um Lehrpersonen kompakt Hinweise für den Unterricht mit GSD an die Hand zu geben, wurde im Rahmen eines Projekts während des Referendariats der beiden Autorinnen an der Margarethe-von-Witzleben-Schule ein kurzes Merkblatt verfasst, das zehn wichtige Punkte (im Sinne des Best Practice) für den gemeinsamen Einsatz zusammenfasst.
    Abstract: The use of interpreters for spoken German and German sign language in the classroom presents many teachers with new opportunities and challenges. In most cases, teachers have not been prepared for such a teaching setting during their training and dealing with the interpreters and pupils who use these is unfamiliar at first. In order to provide teachers with compact tips for teaching with interpreters present, a short leaflet was written as part of a project during the two authors' traineeship at Margarethe-von-Witzleben-Schule, which summarizes ten important points (in terms of best practice) for the collaborative work.

    Keywords: refugees ; forced migration ; selection ; migration processes ; mobility ; individual-level data ; fatality data ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: Introduction: An ample scholarly literature on voluntary migration has shown that migration is a highly selective process, resulting in migrant populations that often differ significantly from their respective population of origin in terms of their socio-demographic characteristics. The literature attributes these differences to either migrants' active choice and agency in the migration decision (i.e., self-selection), or to selectively applied external constraints. Although the socio-demographic make-up of forced migrant populations has received significant attention in public discourses in receiving countries such as Germany and Turkey, the literature on migrant selection largely focuses on voluntary migration and self-selection mechanisms. As a result, the selection mechanisms of forcibly displaced persons are less well-understood. Particularly in the context of forced migration, the conditions for migration fluctuate heavily within a relatively short time span, e.g., regarding immigration policies and border controls. In this study we contribute to that literature by exploring the changing conditions under which Syrians sought international humanitarian protection between 2013 and 2017 and linking them to the selection outcomes in three major receiving countries: Lebanon, Turkey, and Germany. Methods: Based on novel household survey data, we compare age, gender, socio-economic background, and family context of the Syrian populations in Lebanon, Turkey, and Germany by arrival cohort (2013–2017). In a narrative approach, we combine the cohort analysis of Syrians in Lebanon, Turkey, and Germany with contextual analyses of the (changing) frameworks governing refugee migration in transit and destination countries and descriptive analyses of changing risk levels along migration routes into Europe. Results: Our analyses reveal that higher external barriers coincide with a stronger selection in migrants' socio-demographic make-up. In particular, riskier routes and higher entry barriers are associated with a lower share of female migrants, a lower share traveling with family members, and a higher socio-economic background. Discussion: In this study, we describe differences in forced migrants' selection outcomes in countries of first refuge neighboring the origin country, relative to a reception country in the global north. By establishing legal and political frameworks as well as the accessibility of routes as external barriers to forced migration we expand on the existing theoretical approaches to selection effects and identify a need for policy intervention to ensure equitable access to humanitarian protection.

    Abstract: An emerging disparity within contemporary social science highlights a disconnection between the world in the process of metamorphosing and cosmopolitanization and the knowledge of the social world that is still trapped in the cognitive assumptions of modern episteme, which provided the conditions for the emergence of modern social sciences a century ago. This divide inhibits the efficacy of social analysis in comprehending and elucidating contemporary phenomena. This article advocates for a shift in the ontology of social theory and science towards the cosmopolitanization of the world, characterized by the prioritization of indeterminacy and fluidity in the construction of social phenomena. It investigates the epistemological implications and prerequisites of this ontological transformation, favoring a post-foundationalist approach as the most suitable epistemological framework. In response to the challenges posed by the uncertainty and indeterminacy of cosmopolitanization, after reviewing some of the existing theoretical efforts to address and provide alternatives to this challenge, the article proposes the examination of social configurations as the most fitting subjects for study. This approach necessitates the suspension of conventional, given, regulated categories, and trans-historical theories. It underscores the importance of recognizing configurations as incomplete, contingent units shaped within specific historical contexts and moments. The fluidity, relationality, and indeterminacy of configurations situated between the universal and the singular make them suitable for analysis at the level of particular. After elaborating on the most important features of social configurations, finally, by employing the proposed theoretical framework, this article aims to investigate its effectiveness in analyzing the process of identity construction among Iranian youth in Tehran in the context of the cosmopolitanization of reality, particularly in the face of the Islamist regime of Iran’s official politics of identity. Through a review and revision of selected empirical studies on youth identity construction in the consumer spaces of Tehran, based on the idea of social configurations within the framework of cosmopolitanization, it is argued that the genuine understanding of identity politics in contemporary Iran is not rooted in conventional analytical norms and categories but rather in a comprehensible conceptual apparatus characterized by fluidity and indeterminacy, capable of effectively making sense of the conflict between the politics of determinacy and indeterminacy in Iranian everyday life.

    Keywords: death ; funerals ; Ewe ; Ghana ; plastic ; materiality ; synthetic materials ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: Plastics are as positively durable as they are easily breakable, almost impossible to mend and hard to get rid of. They promise eternal life, but their immortality may quickly turn them into the undead. This paper discusses the use and role of plastics in Ghanaian funerary contexts, specifically in a small-town community in the Ghanaian Volta Region. It investigates plastics’ agency as materials that may potentially either contain death successfully or become uncontained matter out of place, just as the dead may become contained or left wandering among the living. Different perspectives on plastics are brought into focus, highlighting how attributed qualities and meanings play into the making of ‘good’ or ‘bad’ death. The paper shows that plastics and persons jointly become subject to moral and temporal assessments in the realm between good and bad, finitude and durability. Beyond the ethnographic case study, the paper discusses the political potential of death and plastics within the larger global context of a cultural economy that reflects the ongoing effect of colonialism.

    Abstract: In this article, we describe the package twostep, a bundle of programs to perform analyses of hierarchical data applying the two-step approach. We consider a two-level data setup in which “microlevel” units are nested within “macrolevel” units. One-step models (which can be fit using, for example, mixed) are the most common approach to modeling two-level data. The two-step approach is an alternative in which parameters associated with microlevel and macrolevel predictors are estimated separately for each level. It can be used as an alternative to one-step models if the estimand is a cross-level interaction. We also show how the two-step approach usefully complements one-step approaches by providing exploratory data analysis, descriptive graphs, and regression diagnostics.

    Abstract: Matters of sound and listening are increasingly being attended to across the social sciences and humanities, reflecting what has been termed a ‘sonic turn’ since the early 2000s. In urban ethnographic research, scholars are starting to pay attention to the role of sound in social relations, in expressions of identity and senses of belonging, as well as in processes of othering. In this paper, we explore the theoretical and methodological opportunities of sonic urban ethnography, that is, an urban ethnography that foregrounds sound and listening in theoretical and methodological ways. We argue that the promise of sonic urban ethnography lies in its ability to interrupt the predominant focus on text and the visual by developing expanded practices of listening for alternative ways of knowing and engaging with the urban. We share four empirical vignettes from Shanghai, Berlin and London that illustrate, in their different ways, the power exercised through sound in the urban environment. Our discussion of the empirical cases highlights three key ‘lessons’ for doing sonic urban ethnography.
    Abstract: 声音和听觉问题越来越受到社会科学和人文科学的关注,反映了自二十一世纪初以来所谓的“声音转向”。在城市民族志研究中,研究者们开始关注声音在社会关系、身份和归属感表达以及他者化过程中的作用。在本文中,我们探讨了声音城市民族志的理论和方法论机会,即以理论和方法论方式强调声音和听觉的城市民族志。我们认为,声音城市民族志的前景在于它能够通过扩展听觉实践来寻找了解和参与城市的替代方式,从而打破对文本和视觉的主要关注。我们分享了来自上海、柏林和伦敦的四个实证案例,这些案例以不同的方式说明了在城市环境中通过声音所行使的权力。我们对实证案例的讨论强调了进行声音城市民族志的三个关键“教训”。

    Keywords: Engaged Buddhism ; Thich Nhat Hanh ; mindfulness ; environmental activism ; Earth Holder Berlin ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: This study explores the intersection of mindfulness practice and environmental activism within the Earth Holder Berlin (EHB) group, a part of the Order of Interbeing (O of I) inspired by Thich Nhat Hanh. EHB, established in 2020, integrates the principles of engaged Buddhism and endeavors to advance social and ecological justice through mindful actions. Using a qualitative methodology, this research employs semi-structured interviews and participant observation to investigate the experiences of EHB members. The findings demonstrate the transformative potential of Buddhism in ecological discourse, illustrating how EHB members embody epistemic entanglement, intertwining their Buddhist backgrounds with climate knowledge. This integration not only enhances personal transformation but also serves as a catalyst for social and ecological justice, enriching our understanding of engaged Buddhism in contemporary environmental movements.

    Abstract: The emergence of the terrorist group, Daesh in 2014 and the international military campaign against it caused both a humanitarian crisis and mass displacement in Iraq. About 5.8 million people became internally displaced, and as of 2021, 1.2 million of them still remain in displacement. This article engages with the question of what motivates people to return from displacement to their area of origin. It investigates the role that religion played in the decision of internally displaced Christians to return to Baghdeda in the Ninewa Plain, Iraq's largest Christian town. Based on qualitative interviews, the article examines the factors influencing people's decisions to return. We find that religion contributes to an array of pull factors positively influencing the decision to return, within the nexus of other considerations such as security, reconstruction, and economic opportunities. Religion was found to contribute to the return decision through the respondents' Christian identity, the encouragement to return by religious leaders, and the reconstruction efforts led by the churches. However, while these factors contributed to motivating people to return, these alone are not sufficient to motivate Christians to stay in Baghdeda in the long-term if other important conditions like the security situation and economic opportunities are not in place.

    Abstract: This article explores the challenges and complexities of a cross cultural PhD student conducting research in West Africa. I discuss how I navigated, negotiated and blurred my insider/outsider experiences as a Congolese-American woman as I engaged with themes oscillating between power, legitimacy, language, gender, and my decolonial and social justice commitments. Reflexive research on Africans studying a secondary non-native African country is seldom discussed or researched. As such, I utilised an intersectional transnegritude theoretical framework to centre and complicate the shared transcolonial struggles and neocolonial realities of myself and my participants. I conclude by positing that, despite the challenges of doing transnational work, reflexively recognising our positionality lends to a liberatory and critical transnational exchange that encourages new approaches to knowledge production for social justice. This article contributes to ongoing discussions of insider/outsider research, positionality, decolonising research, and comparative case study to articulate and dearticulate power dynamics in neocolonial contexts.

    Abstract: Die sozialwissenschaftliche Kindheitsforschung wird seit ihrem Entstehen von politischen Argumenten begleitet. Die Auseinandersetzung mit Kindern und Kindheit ist somit nicht von einer politischen Dimension zu trennen und gibt Anlass, Fragen nach der politischen Dimension nicht nur von Kindheit, sondern auch der Kindheitsforschung zu stellen. Der Sammelband beleuchtet systematisch die vielfältigen Beziehungen zwischen Kindheit und Politik und macht auch neuere Diskussionen im Feld der sozialwissenschaftlichen Kindheitsforschung sichtbar. Im Mittelpunkt des Interesses stehen Fragen nach den differenten Modi und Zielen der Inanspruchnahme von Kindern und Kindheit in und durch Politik, nach den (nicht-)intendierten Konsequenzen politischer Prozesse auf Kinder und Kindheit, nach zentralen Paradoxien im Bezug von politischen Akteur:innen auf Kinder und Kindheit, aber auch grundsätzlich der Ent-/Politisierung von Kindern und durch Kinder.

    Keywords: social innovation ; impact ; valuation ; value ; dissonance ; rural areas ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: Social innovation (SI) has been credited with fostering novel solutions to the socio-economic challenges many rural areas face. The quest for a substantiated understanding of its potential for regional development has spawned a rich literature on SI impact assessments. Yet, having been instrumental, these assessments harbour several ambiguities as they seek to unveil objective impacts in a results-oriented manner. First, SI processes take diverse directionalities, questioning the idea of them being ‘straightforward facts’ and giving leeway to a more constructivist understanding. Second, a results-oriented perspective tends to obscure social processes that initially contribute to the emergence of impacts. In response to such concerns, we suggest a valuation perspective that explores how SI impacts are constructed iteratively throughout the innovation process. To do so, we operationalise the notion of dissonance as a critical factor embedded in innovative activities in three instances: impulses, turning points, and lock-ins. This perspective allows us to study how value is experienced, assigned, and strategically attracted while shedding light on how SI processes and their impacts are co-constructed in valuation processes. The article uses empirical vignettes from selected case studies with SI initiatives in Northern Germany.

    Keywords: Asylbewerberleistungsgesetz ; Bezahlkarte ; Teilhabe ; Integration ; Geflüchtete ; Fluchtmigration ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: (1) Die Bezahlkarte für Geflüchtete soll Geldleistungen nach dem Asylbewerberleistungsgesetz ersetzen. Dies betrifft überwiegend Asylbe­werber­innen und -bewerber während der Asylverfahren und Personen, deren Anträge auf Schutz abgelehnt wurden, nicht aber Geflüchtete mit einem anerkannten Schutzstatus oder ukrainische Staatsangehörige, die seit Beginn des russischen Angriffskriegs am 24.02.2022 nach Deutschland geflohen sind. (2) Die Ausgestaltung der Bezahlkarte, insbesondere inwieweit die sächliche und räumliche Verwendung der Transferleistungen eingeschränkt wird und in welchem Umfang Bargeld abgehoben werden kann, ist noch offen. (3) Die Bezahlkarte kann die soziale und kulturelle Teilhabe, die Wahrnehmung von Integrationsangeboten und die Integration in den Arbeitsmarkt behindern. Die Wirkungen werden wesentlich von der Aus­ge­staltung der Bezahlkarte abhängen. Je ähnlicher sie einem allgemeinen Zahlungsmittel ist, desto geringer sind die negativen Wirkungen. (4) Mit der Bezahlkarte sind direkte und indirekte Kosten verbunden. Die direkten Kosten ergeben sich aus den Gebühren für die Finanz­dienst­leister und dem zusätzlichen Verwaltungsaufwand. Zusätzlich können aber auch indirekte Kosten für die Betroffenen und weitere fiskalische Kosten entstehen, wenn die Integration durch die Bezahlkarte beeinträchtigt wird. (5) Es ist unwahrscheinlich, dass die Bezahlkarte einen spürbaren Einfluss auf den Umfang der Fluchtmigration hat. Das Volumen der Rücküberweis­ungen an die Hauptasylherkunftsländer ist vergleichsweise gering und der überwiegende Teil dieser Rücküberweisungen dürfte von erwerbs­tät­igen Personen stammen. Auch sind die Leistungssätze zu gering, als dass unter realistischen Annahmen aus den Leistungen nach dem Asylbe­werberleistungsgesetz die Flucht von Familienangehörigen oder Freunden finanziert werden kann.

    Keywords: pro-environmental behavior (PEB) ; intentions ; socioeconomic status (SES) ; vegetarianism ; population-based sampling ; gender ; Sozialwissenschaften
    Abstract: Pro-environmental behaviors (PEBs) such as climate-friendly mobility and eating habits hold great promise in terms of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and, thus, are important goals for addressing climate change from a population perspective. Yet, sociodemographic correlates and differences in PEB intentions have to be considered in designing messages and behavior change interventions. This study implemented a quota-sampling survey (N = 979, 511 women, 468 men, age M = 50.4, SD = 17.2) of the German population and found that, overall, participants exhibit strong intentions to engage in various PEBs, with the exception of cycling and adopting a vegetarian diet. Moreover, women displayed higher intentions to engage in PEBs compared to men, particularly in adopting a vegetarian diet. The relationships between socioeconomic status (SES) and PEB intentions, as well as the combined effects of gender and SES, were inconsistent for different PEB intentions. We conclude that on a population level, intention-building interventions are necessary for vegetarianism and cycling, while for the other PEBs, interventions may focus on closing the intention–behavior gap. There is a need to further research the interplay of different PEBs in diverse groups and for interventional studies targeting the discrepancy in eating habits across genders.

    Abstract: In Peki, an Ewe town in the Ghanaian Volta Region, death is a matter of public concern. By means of funeral banners printed with synthetic ink on PVC, public lyings in state, cemented graves and wreaths made from plastic, death occupies a prominent place in the world of the living. Rest in Plastic gives an insight into local entanglements of death, synthetic materials and power in Ewe community. It shows how different materials and things that come to shape power relations, exist in a delicate balance between state and local governance, kin and outsiders, death and life, the invisible and the visible, movement and containment.

    Abstract: We investigate how loneliness develops over the marital dissolution process in older age (i.e., transition at or after age 50) while paying close attention to heterogeneities by the dissolution pathway—widowhood and separation—and gender. Using data from over 8,000 Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia survey respondents, we assess the association of interest using fixed effects regressions. Findings indicate that loneliness increased in the year before widowhood or separation among both women and men. Levels spiked in the year of dissolution, particularly for widowhood but less for separation. Widowed men were substantially more affected than widowed women, and gender differences were negligible for separation. Although loneliness levels gradually declined, widowed men remained vulnerable for remarkably long periods. Such chronic loneliness might be linked to other health disadvantages. These findings highlight the importance of long-term and gender-specific approaches to social support and integration after marital dissolution.
