Kapitalismus und umkämpfte Öffentlichkeit. Ein Gespräch mit Nancy Fraser
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…
When Twitter blocked Trump
In our text, we follow the traces of a (1) paradox, (2) an ambivalence and (3) a dialectic that constitute digitalized public spheres and discuss the resulting tensions in discourse-ethical and political-theoretical perspectives using the blocking of Donald J. Trump’s Twitter account as an example. Starting from this, we determine the conditions of constitution of the digital public sphere and locate the dynamics of its development in the dialect…
The proletarian public sphere revisited
In this contribution, we argue that critical theories of the public sphere (in Habermas, but also in Negt and Kluge as well as Fraser) leave out the socially central field of labour and labour-political disputes, and that a reactualization and refocusing becomes necessary: We define the dynamics of globalization, commodification and digitalization as sequences of a renewed structural transformation of both social self-understanding and gainful em…
The public sphere and democracy in transformation
All the aspects and dimensions that can be rightfully identified as playing essential parts within the current tragedy of democracy do share a common reference point: the public sphere. In the absence of a public sphere, no political change can take place democratically. This introduction to the special issue, which continues the debate about the public sphere from a broadly understood critical theory perspective, tries to substantiate the two in…
Theorising the effects of EU emigration for origin countries
Proletarische Öffentlichkeit revisited
Im Beitrag wird argumentiert, dass kritische Öffentlichkeitstheorien (bei Habermas, aber auch bei Negt und Kluge sowie Fraser) das gesellschaftlich-zentrale Feld der Arbeit und arbeitspolitischen Auseinandersetzungen aussparen und eine Reaktualisierung und Re-Fokussierung nötig wird: Wir bestimmen die Dynamiken von Globalisierung, Kommodifizierung und Digitalisierung als Sequenzen eines erneuten Strukturwandels sowohl gesellschaftlicher Selbstver…
The Influence of the Discursive Power of Unions in the Swift Re-regulation of Slaughterhouse Labour during the Covid-19 Crisis in Germany
The article analyses the re-regulation of labour in the German meat industry during the COVID-19 crisis. While working and employment conditions have long been criticised with only minor results, the massive coronavirus outbreaks in German slaughterhouses led to a rapid reform of work in the meat industry. We argue that unions were able to exert influence on policy-makers based on the discursive power that they accumulated prior to COVID-19, but …

Comparing different machine‐learning techniques to date Nile Delta sediments based on portable X‐ray fluorescence data
Geomorphology generally aims to describe and investigate the processes that lead to the formation of landscapes, while geochronology is needed to detect their timing and duration. Due to restrictions on exporting geological samples from Egypt, modern geoscientific studies in the Nile Delta lack the possibility of dating the investigated sediments and geological features by standard techniques such as OSL or AMS 14 C; therefore, this study aims to…
Does the European left have to choose between the nation-state and internationalism? Some considerations following Richard Rorty
By applying the concept of democracy and the state proposed by Richard Rorty, the article aims to make a theoretical contribution to understanding frames of political mobilization and solidarity. While Rorty’s conceptual instruments stem from the field of epistemology and moral philosophy and have, so far, not been widely applied to theorizing statehood in general and labour market policy in particular, his ideas can help to understand leftist po…
Critical problems and pragmatist solutions
In this special issue, we draw on pragmatist political and social theory and philosophy to illustrate the creative potential of this intellectual tradition for thinking about the numerous crises that haunt liberal democratic societies today. The introduction identifies five overlapping problem constellations (demise of public power, lasting consequences of inequality, pluralization of society, return of authoritarian practices and globalization o…
A New Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere? An Introduction
The political public sphere is important for democracy, and it is changing - this is how the quintessence of Jürgen Habermas's monumental study on The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere (1989) could be summarized in simple words. In the fields of political sociology and social theory, history, but also research on social movements, cultural studies, and media and communication studies, his conception of the public sphere as a sphere m…
Corporate Public Spheres between Refeudalization and Revitalization
The article critically analyses the gaps and the analytical potential in Jürgen Habermas's The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere concerning corporate discourses and debates. It is shown that Habermas only analyses the field of work in abstract terms, neglecting in particular corporate public spheres. In contrast, corporate public spheres are developed as an analytical concept, expressed by companies in the form of institutionalized c…
Reflections on the Contemporary Public Sphere
In this conversation, Berkeley-based philosopher Judith Butler offers insights into her understanding of the public sphere and its current transformations as a core dimension of political subjectivity. Beginning with her own understanding of Habermas' classic, the interview centers around its connection to other classical texts (e.g. of Hannah Arendt) and timely political debates

Mid- to late-Holocene sea-level evolution of the northeastern Aegean sea
We combined biostratigraphical analyses, archaeological surveys, and Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) models to provide new insights into the relative sea-level evolution in the northeastern Aegean Sea (eastern Mediterranean). In this area, characterized by a very complex tectonic pattern, we produced a new typology of sea-level index point, based on the foraminiferal associations found in transgressive marine facies. Our results agree with the…
A socialization paradox
The formulation of common political positions from the trade union movement at the European Union (EU) level mainly takes place at the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC). In the case of the Enforcement Directive of the Posting of Workers Directive, a central cleavage line runs between neither countries nor political parties, but between different vertical levels of the system of European labor relations-the sectoral and interprofessional l…
The transformation of Industrial Citizenship in the course of European integration
The question of the social dimension of European integration has so far remained unsettled. While on the European level, the civil and political dimension of citizenship has been strengthened, the evolution of economic and social rights are unclear, contradictory—and still under‐investigated. Our contribution applies citizenship as a central category of modernization theory to inquire into European integration. In particular, our focus is set on …

The environs of Elaia's ancient open harbour – a reconstruction based on microfaunal evidence
The Purpose and Age of Underwater Walls in the Bay of Elaia of Western Turkey
Pergamum (modern: Bergama) was operating an important harbour used by military forces and merchants at the city of Elaia during Hellenistic and Roman Imperial times. Harbour‐related facilities such as warehouses, breakwaters and wharfs document the importance of this harbour site not only for the Pergamenians. This paper focuses on the purpose and age of six submerged wall structures situated approximately 1 km south of the ancient closed harbour…

Countermovements in Europe? A Polanyian perspective
Recently, the developments of neoliberal globalization which have emerged since the early 1970s have been framed as a wave of disembedding of the market in the Polanyian sense (see, for instance, As expected according to Polanyian theory, the marketization of the "fictitious commodities" (Polanyi, 2001, 137) nature, labour and money has led to their degradation and thus the undermining of the very foundations of production and exchange: Today, on…
Why Do (Some) European Trade Unions Reject Minimum Wage Regulation
In the course of European integration, joint positions among trade unions from the different member states are not only becoming more and more necessary, but also increasingly difficult to establish. Against this background, trade unions in the EU have been discussing the implementation of a bottom limit for wages in the common market for more than a decade. While generally, trade unions from countries with weak collective bargaining can be expec…

Der Wandel von Economic Citizenship im Zuge der europäischen Integration
Die Frage nach dem sozialen Gehalt der europäischen Integration ist nach wie vor ungeklärt. Während auf europäischer Ebene die zivilen und politischen Dimensionen von „Citizenship“ gestärkt wurden, sind gerade hinsichtlich der ökonomischen und sozialen Rechte die Entwicklungen uneindeutig, widersprüchlich – und noch wenig erforscht. Der vorliegende Text überträgt Citizenship als zentrale Kategorie der Modernisierungstheorie auf die Erforschung de…

Deutscher Gangsta-Rap
Der Medienhype um Aggro Berlin, Sidos Beteiligung an der Casting-Show »Popstars« oder der Kinofilm »Zeiten ändern dich« des Bambi-Preisträgers Bushido zeigen: Gangsta-Rap ist auch in Deutschland zu einem zentralen Genre der Popkultur avanciert. Die Bildwelten der Gangsta-Rap-Kultur sind dabei nicht nur das Resultat von medienbasierten Glokalisierungsprozessen, sondern auch Bezugspunkte in einem Krisendiskurs um ethnisierte Jugendkriminalität oder…

Social Policy and Labor Regulation in the Course of European Integration
At least since the banking crisis of 2008 devolved into a demand-driven economic crisis and, later, a sovereign debt crisis (Scharpf 2011), the concept of crisis has significantly shaped the discourse on European integration. Thus, the rise in refugee immigration and the controversial debate over the responsibilities of individual EU member states has recently made the term refugee crisis o o parla e Pries 6 .

Transnationale Lohnkoordination zur Stabilisierung des Euro? Gab es nicht, gibt es nicht, wird es nicht geben
In Währungsunionen stehen Auf- und Abwertungen zur Korrektur heterogener Inflationsentwicklungen nicht mehr zur Verfügung. Zur Vermeidung von Leistungsbilanzungleichgewichten erfordert der Euro daher die transnationale Koordination von Lohnauftrieben. Seit den 1990er Jahren und verstärkt seit Einführung des Euros bekennen sich die Gewerkschaften zu dem Ziel einer solchen Koordination. Diese Bekenntnisse werden trotz des permanenten Scheiterns der…
