What Are “The Boundaries of the Sayable”? A Social Theoretical Framework to Research the Boundaries of Public Speech
In this article we develop a social theoretical conception of the boundaries of public speech. There is a vivid debate concerning supposed shifts of these boundaries. Some argue that boundaries are contracting, causing formerly accepted conservative positions to be excluded as extremist. Others argue that boundaries are expanding and shifting to the right, causing formerly unspeakable far-right ideology to be normalized. Unfortunately, there is a…

A societal shift to the right or the political mobilisation of a shrinking minority
This paper discusses whether the swift rise and radicalisation of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) as the first electorally successful far-right party in Germany in decades was caused by a general societal shift to the right. It first operationalises the concept of a shift towards the (far) right with references to Norberto Bobbio and Cas Mudde. Then it discusses whether such a shift has taken place on four levels: public policy, political behav…

A great variety of transformations – and populisms
Hans-Jrgen Bieling makes a convincing case that there are valuable lessons to be learned from Karl Polanyi's analyses of the rise of authoritarianism in the 20 th century to understand the rise of right-wing populism today. However, in order to realize the full potential of this approach, some ideas at the margins of his argument should be expanded and reworked. As I argue in this paper, this is particularly true for three aspects: First, the eco…
Populism, religion, and distorted communication
Orientalismus und demokratische Öffentlichkeit
Seit Jahren wird in politischer Öffentlichkeit und Wissenschaft heftig darüber gestritten, welches Sprechen über den Islam als legitimer Teil demokratischer Debatten zu betrachten ist und welches nicht. Diese Konflikte nimmt Floris Biskamp als Ausgangspunkt für eine theoretische Diskussion von Aushandlungen kultureller Differenz in der demokratischen Öffentlichkeit. Er legt dar, unter welchen Verkürzungen die gängigen Konzepte von Islamophobie, I…
