  • Epistemic choices, struggles and inequalities in scientific publishing

    Open AccessShizuku Sunagawa, Nelius Boshoff et al.ARTICLEQuantitative Science Studies2026

    In recent years, scientific communities across disciplines have called for addressing the inequalities that structure their respective fields. Their calls are supported by a growing body of studies concerned with geographical and gender-related inequalities in scientific publishing. However, a persistent disconnect remains between quantitative and qualitative analyses, preventing an understanding of how authorship patterns relate to researchers’ …

  • Agency and luck in scientific career narratives

    Open AccessSusanne Koch, Olena Strelnyk et al.ARTICLEScience and Public Policy2025

    This study examines how scholars narrate agency and luck in scientific careers, focusing on geographic space and gender as structuring dimensions. Drawing on interviews with forest governance researchers, we analyze how they discursively construct professional trajectories. European scholars often frame their academic trajectories as outcomes of epistemic interests and agentic choices, while African scholars tend to narrate their careers through …

  • Reproducing Inequality

    Open AccessSusanne Koch, Camilla Tetley et al.ARTICLEMinerva2025Referências: 5

    Despite shifts in science policy and funding modalities, international research collaborations continue to be shaped by inequalities that structure global science. These include a skewed division of tasks and unequal scientific authority in North-South partnerships. Existing scholarship highlights scholars’ experiences of such inequalities, but offers little explanation of how they are reproduced and affect joint knowledge production. We address …

  • Narratives of research collaboration for sustainability at the global science-policy interface

    Open AccessCamilla Tetley, Susanne KochARTICLEEnvironmental Science & Policy2024Citada por: 2Referências: 8

    Collaborative science has become a ‘gold standard’ in sustainability science, to address increasingly complex socio-environmental challenges and knowledge divides. Inequalities shaping research collaborations (RCs) however remain unexplored in the science-policy interface. To address this gap, we carry out a critical discourse analysis of texts by international policy and research actors engaged in the global discourse on science for sustainabili…

  • Science as a field of struggle

    Open AccessOlena Strelnyk, Susanne Koch et al.ARTICLEForest Policy and Economics2024Referências: 22

    Building on scholarship addressing gender inequality in forestry, this paper investigates how African scholars experience gendered struggles in doing forest governance research. Employing Bourdieu's theoretical lens of science as a (gendered) social field of struggle, we consider scholars' participation in academia as shaped by dispositions related to gender, locality and other social dimensions of difference. Based on interviews with twenty fema…

  • Geographical inequalities in global forest science

    Open AccessNelius Boshoff, Similo Ngwenya et al.ARTICLEForest Policy and Economics2024Citada por: 1Referências: 10

    This bibliometric study is situated in the context of increasing awareness of inequalities in forest science. It was led by a single, core question: What geographical inequalities structure global forest science and how do they align with the natural geographical distribution of forest areas? Bourdieu's field theory was used to investigate the inequalities, focusing on three types of capital considered important for participation in global scienc…

  • All that Matters are Forests and Seas? Practising Relevance in Interdisciplinary Environment-Focused Social Science Fields

    Open AccessSusanne Koch, Judit VargaARTICLEMinerva2024Citada por: 1Referências: 12

    Policy increasingly requires societally relevant and interdisciplinary science, which prompts questions about science’s orientation to diverse academic and non-academic actors. This paper examines how relevance is practised and negotiated in two evolving interdisciplinary social science fields: marine social sciences and forest policy research. Both fields investigate human relations with specific environments: how people use, manage and govern, …

  • What ‘counts’ in international forest policy research? A conference ethnography of valuation practice and habitus in an interdisciplinary social science field

    Open AccessSusanne Koch, Camilla TetleyARTICLEForest Policy and Economics2023Citada por: 1Referências: 9

    In this paper, we examine implicit values, norms and orientations that guide international forest policy research (FPR). We link Bourdieu's praxeological theory and valuography to empirically grasp disciplinary habitus manifesting in valuation practice at International Forest Policy Meetings. Conferences provide spaces where scholars negotiate ‘what counts’. In presenting and discussing research, they enact values of ‘good’ scholarship that refle…

  • Patterns of inequality in global forest science conferences

  • “The Local Consultant Will Not Be Credible”

    Susanne KochARTICLESocial Epistemology2020

    This paper uses the concept of epistemic injustice to shed light on the discriminatory treatment of experts in and by development aid. While the literature on epistemic justice is largely based on philosophical reasoning, I provide an empirical case study which substantiates theoretical claims with findings from social science research. Drawing on expert interviews conducted in South Africa and Tanzania, I reveal how epistemic injustice is experi…

  • Responsible research, inequality in science and epistemic injustice

    Open AccessSusanne KochARTICLEJournal of Responsible Innovation2020

    Inclusiveness is a key theme in scholarship on Responsible Innovation (RI) and Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI). RI/RRI researchers make a strong case for involving stakeholders into science and innovation processes. What they hitherto do not discuss is how to make science internally more inclusive and tackle barriers that prevent marginalised scholars from participating in knowledge production and societal meaning-making. With this Pers…

  • Reform der Hinzuverdienstregeln im SGB II

    Martin Timóteo Dietz, Martin Dietz et al.ARTICLESozialer Fortschritt2011

    Im September 2009 gab es in Deutschland knapp 1,4 Millionen erwerbstätige Hilfebedürftige, die gleichzeitig ein Erwerbseinkommen und Leistungen der Grundsicherung nach dem Sozialgesetzbuch II (SGB II) beziehen. Aktuell wird im politischen Raum diskutiert, ob man durch eine Veränderung der Hinzuverdienstregeln im SGB II Anreize für eine Arbeitsaufnahme erhöhen und damit eine stärkere Arbeitsmarktintegration erreichen kann. Der vorliegende Beitrag …

  • Aktivierung, Erwerbstätigkeit und Teilhabe

    Open AccessSusanne Koch, Peter Kupka et al.BOOKIab-Bibliothek 3152009

    Mit der Einführung des SGB II im Jahr 2005 wurden Arbeitslosen- und Sozialhilfe zur Grundsicherung für erwerbsfähige Hilfsbedürftige zusammengelegt. Ziel der Arbeitsmarktreformen war es auch, Leistungsempfänger zu aktivieren und möglichst schnell zu integrieren. Damit hat sich die Arbeitsmarktpolitik von einem bloßen Versorgungssystem entfernt und die Betreuung einerseits sowie die Zumutungen andererseits verstärkt. Die Diskussion über die Folgen…

  • Zur Bedeutung von öffentlicher Arbeitsvermittlung und Beratung in der Arbeitsmarktkrise

    Susanne Koch, G Krug et al.ARTICLESozialer Fortschritt2009Citada por: 1Referências: 9

    Aufgabe der öffentlichen Arbeitsvermittlung ist es vor allem, durch individuelle Beratung und Betreuung beider Arbeitsmarktseiten die Stellenbesetzungsprozesse zu unterstützen und so zum Arbeitsmarktausgleich beizutragen. Der Beitrag geht auf Basis aktueller wissenschaftlicher Befunde zunächst der Frage nach, ob und durch welche Aktivitäten die Arbeitsvermittlung diesem Anspruch gerecht wird. Anschließend wird gezeigt, welche Erkenntnisse auf das…

  • Was muten sich Arbeitslose zu? Lohnkonzessionen von ALG II-Empfängern

    Stefan Bender, Susanne Koch et al.ARTICLESozialer Fortschritt2008Citada por: 4Referências: 2

    Der Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit den Lohnansprüchen von Empfängern des ALG II und knüpft dabei an frühere Arbeiten von Christensen an, der die Lohnansprüche von Arbeitslosen untersucht hat. Jedoch stützt er sich nicht auf Daten des Soziooekonomischen Panels (SOEP), sondern auf Angaben der Querschnittserhebung des IAB “Lebenssituation und Soziale Sicherung“, die ALG II-Empfänger in der frühen Phase nach der Reform von Arbeitslosen- und Sozialhilfe…
