Limited provenance differentiation and trait-dependent site effects revealed in a European beech provenance trial
Strong site effects observed for specific leaf area • Little variation between sites for stomatal density • Confirmation of potentially adaptive SNPs Heat and drought are increasingly affecting forest ecosystems. Also, European beech ( Fagus sylvatica L.) showed growth decline in large parts of its distribution area. Therefore, a better understanding of drought-related traits as well as the identification of suitable provenances for future enviro…
Migration policies addressing irregularity: A typology of responses
In the political as well as the academic debate, it often appears as if regularisation or return are the only instruments that states use to address the presence of irregular migrants. Yet in reality, states possess a repertoire of responses to irregularity and select from this repertoire in a situation- and group-specific manner. This article systematically maps out the range of policy responses to the presence of irregular migrants on state ter…
Three Visions of the Realm in Southern Song Debates on the Spatial Order of Antiquity
This article traces the Southern Song discourse on the size and the basic organizational principles of the realm under the ancient sage kings. It shows how scholars reconciled different spatial concepts outlined in the Confucian Classics, and how they interpreted the various specifications of size, of spatial hierarchies, and of borders. We can distinguish three visions of the realm in their writings: a confined realm of comparatively small expan…
Powerful Arguments: Standards of Validity in Late Imperial China
The essays in Powerful Arguments reconstruct the standards of validity underlying argumentative practices in a wide array of late imperial Chinese discourses, from the Song through the Qing dynasties. The fourteen case studies analyze concrete arguments defended or contested in areas ranging from historiography, philosophy, law, and religion to natural studies, literature, and the civil examination system. By examining uses of evidence, habits of…
The Research Agenda of Zhu Qiqian: A Reframing of Traditional Chinese Craftsmanship
As a researcher, Zhu Qiqian 朱啟鈐 (1872-1964) is commonly known as the founding father of Chinese architectural history. Consequently, his work has been analyzed predominantly by architectural historians and in the context of architectural history. However, this lopsided perception distorts and obscures Zhu’s comprehensive research objectives and his contribution to a variety of fields, in particular his attempt to reframe and thoroughly investigat…
Remembrance of Revolutions Past—A Democratic Resource? 1989—Space of Remembrance in the “Hero Cities” of Leipzig and Timişoara
Almost twenty-five years after the mass protest of 1989 against the socialist regimes, the relationship between individual and official memory has reached a crucial point. The question of what narrative or interpretation of past events is memorialized in the urban landscape—in cities where the actual protest and dissent took place—should be determined at both the national and local level. Do the protesters of the 1980s feel that their political a…
Innovative Concepts for Alternative Migration Policies: Ten Innovative Approaches to the Challenges of Migration in the 21st Century
IMISCOE is a European Commission-funded Network of Excellence of more than 350 scientists from various research institutes that specialise in migration and integration issues in Europe. These researchers, who come from all branches of the economic and social sciences, the humanities and law, implement an integrated, multidisciplinary and internationally comparative research programme that focuses on Europe's migration and integration challenges
Human Smuggling as a Transnational Service Industry: Evidence from Austria
This paper presents a new approach to the understanding of human smuggling processes. Based on insights gained through in-depth interviews with smuggled migrants in Austria as well as a broad range of other sources, the authors explain how the phenomenon of human smuggling can be understood as a transnational service industry linking service providers (human smugglers) with their clients (smuggled migrants). The paper explores how certain aspects…
