Flucht- und Flüchtlingsforschung: Handbuch für Wissenschaft und Studium
Research on flight and refugees has been experiencing a boom in the German-speaking regions since about 2015. This handbook opens up the field in all its breadth and at the same time critically reflects the state of research. Part I of the volume discusses on a theoretical level the historical development of the field, its (trans-)disciplinary approaches, and questions of research ethics. Part II offers a discussion of important core terms and co…
Gewaltschutz in Geflüchtetenunterkünften: Theorie, Empirie und Praxis
Die kollektive Unterbringung von Asylsuchenden ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil der flüchtlingspolitischen Verwaltungspraxis in Deutschland. Bei aller Varianz der Art solcher Sammelunterkünfte sind damit stets auch prinzipielle Herausforderungen verbunden. Denn mit einem zentralen Raum zum Umgang mit Flucht und Ankunft werden zugleich Gefahren und Konflikte örtlich konzentriert. Parallel zur Entwicklung von Konzepten zur Bewältigung dieser Herausfor…
Demokratieförderung zwischen Staat und Zivilgesellschaft: Zur Entwicklung des Bundesprogramms „Demokratie leben!“
Die Bundesregierung hat mit der Förderung von Programmen für Demokratie immer wieder auf extremistische und anti-demokratische sozio-politische Herausforderungen reagiert. Neben der institutionalisierten politischen Bildung wurden so seit Anfang der 1990er Jahre – in Reaktion auf rechtsextreme Ereignisse und gesellschaftliche Forderungen nach Gegenmaßnahmen – zunehmend zivilgesellschaftliche Projekte durch Sonderprogramme gefördert. Aus der Zivil…
Political science and the history of migration: Entretien avec Susanne Lachenicht
Olaf Kleist points out how political scientists use historical analysis in migration studies in three ways: tracing developments, comparing cases, and analyzing the political use of migration history. Problems arise from the eclectic use of historical contexts and data, the ignorance of migration phenomena prior to 1648 and how political scientists tend to ignore complex historical developments. Kleist argues for better comparisons between the an…
Political Memories and Migration: Belonging, Society, and Australia Day
This book explores the relationship between political memories of migration and the politics of migration, following over two hundred years of commemorating Australia Day. References to Europeans’ ori
The History of Refugee Protection: Conceptual and Methodological Challenges
Forced migration has always existed and yet societies and policy makers are regularly surprised by the arrival of refugees. Similarly, refugee studies is caught between the assertion that displacement and refugee protection are a constant phenomenon of our history and the presentness of its current policy relevance. Neither being wrong, both viewpoints run the risk of arguing a-historically, ignoring either precedents or transformations. The mult…
A political body of civic and communal belonging: Political memories in the creation of the Australian immigrant society
Any notion of political belonging is highly contested. Ultimately though, the political body of a society is shaped by contestation of two modes of belonging: civic and communal. In Australia, the relationship between these two modes of belonging has been negotiated through political conflicts, not least in reference to immigration, since the early years of European settlement. This article traces the trajectory of these conflicts by analysing po…
Remembering for Refugees in Australia: Political Memories and Concepts of Democracy in Refugee Advocacy Post-Tampa
Democratic politics involves a constant negotiation about the belonging and sovereignty of its polity. In Australia, this is particularly apparent in debates about asylum seekers arriving by boat. After a drastic shift in refugee policies in the 2001 Tampa affaire, refugee advocates challenged with various protests the status quo of refugee policies and inadvertently, dominant perceptions of political belonging and sovereignty. Crucially, I argue…
