Veiling and unveiling: Identity formation in young Muslim women living in Germany
This qualitative study addresses the question of how a background of migration, nationalization, and globalization influences young Muslim women residing in Germany who form their identity and position themselves successfully in modern society. It includes 25 interviews with young Muslim women in the age group 18–25 years whose parents or grandparents migrated to Germany from Turkey. In terms of how their identity has evolved, the participants re…
On the Psychodynamics of Wearing a Headscarf Among Young Muslim Women Living in Germany-New Heterogeneous Poles of Subjectivity
The wearing of a headscarf and the veiling especially of the female face or the whole body is a universal phenomenon that occurs in different eras and in different regions and cultures. Today, wearing a headscarf has become a symbol of Islam, especially in Western countries, and is often met with Islamophobic rejection. In our study, using a qualitative interview, we questioned 25 young Muslim women of Turkish origin (between 18 and 25 years old,…
Racial discrimination, objectalisation and reactive disobjectalisation—Pathways of integration for young Muslims in Germany
This paper aims to investigate the relationship between contending objectalisation, reactive disobjectalisation and radicalization tendencies during the integration of 50 young Muslims in Germany. The largest group of people who have a history of migration in Germany are people of Turkish and Kurdish origin. During the summer and autumn of 2018, we interviewed 50 individuals from both genders aged from 18 to 25 years old. We saw that negative or …
The Inner and the Outer Foreign Territory— A Qualitative Study Measuring Ambiguity Tolerance Within Young Muslims Living in Germany
Against the backdrop of globalisation on the one hand and nationalisation on the other, the question of tolerance of ambiguity, i.e. of tolerating cultural ambiguity and vagueness, is of particular importance. This qualitative study investigates what tolerance of ambiguity means in a group of 50 young Turkish Muslims living in Germany. A high tolerance of ambiguity is mentioned much more frequently in the interviews than a low tolerance of ambigu…
Stop moving! Pain, body and trauma in pictures and narratives of patients, suffering with a somatoform disorder
Somatoform pain disorders are strongly associated with adverse, mostly traumatic childhood experiences. Little is known, however, about the psychodynamic background, for example, with regard to defence, affect regulation, and traumatic representations. As part of a qualitative study in which 13 patients with somatoform disorder were investigated, we compared the interviews and drawings by the two patients which featured the most pictorial codes f…
“Impossible objects” in a life‐threatening crisis: A study of patients suffering from adverse childhood experiences and myocardial infarction
Adverse childhood experiences (ACE) are considered as risk factors for myocardial infarction (MI). It is unknown how ACE affects the experience of MI patients. In a qualitative study, a total of 25 MI patients with and without ACE (ACE: n = 20, N‐ACE: n = 5) were asked about their biography and the heart attack. A content analysis was carried out. Inter‐rater reliability showed a good to complete agreement. ACE patients reported primarily on expe…
La partition musicale et chorégraphique: Un débat entre Bojana Cvejić, Marc Downie et Paul Kaiser, Benjamin Piekut, Frédéric Pouillaude et Edward C. Warburton, mené par Mark Franko et Kate van Orden
Parler de partitions musicales et chorégraphiques, qu’on les considère ensemble ou séparément, conduit inévitablement à soulever des questions sur les représentations textuelles très inégales, ayant évolué au cours du temps, qui tentent de saisir le son, la parole, le geste et le mouvement. En musique, la partition commence dès que sont notés des signes accompagnant le texte liturgique, représentant les gestes faits par les chanteurs d’un chœur p…
Democratisations in Africa: Attempts, hindrances and prospects
This article focuses on four sub-Saharan countries that offer different insights into postcolonial democratic experiences on the continent. Botswana has enjoyed decades of uninterrupted multiparty politics (but single-party rule) under a political system that mixes Western-style liberal democracy with traditional top-down structures. Benin has democratised rapidly and relatively successfully after a long period of dictatorial rule, providing a tr…
