‘When things don’t work out, that’s business as usual’
Although experimental science is renowned for its discoveries, conducting research often involves dealing with problems and setbacks in the research process. Such research endeavors are often marked as failures, even though they have produced new knowledge. This paper explores researchers’ perspectives on these issues, shedding light on how they navigate setbacks in the research process. By conducting participant observation and qualitative inter…
Searching for gendered use of modality in grant proposals
Scientific communication is typically written in a moderate tone, and the written styles for grant proposals tend to use conventional rather than provocative rhetorical language. However, previous studies have rarely examined gender differences in grant writing, despite research showing that women tend to be more cautious than men in their (academic) writing. Against this background, our study primarily examines gender differences in the contrast…
Learning to manage emotions in research
This article explores how laboratory scientists manage their emotions when faced with problems and setbacks in their research process. Specifically, we asked what emotions arise in these situations and wondered how they are dealt with, building on Arlie Hochschild’s work on emotion management and feeling rules. We conducted participant observation in two research groups, one in optical physics and one in biochemistry, followed by interviews with …
(Fehlende) Anwesenheit bei Begutachtungsprozessen
Sozial ausgehandelte Interaktionsordnungen bestimmen wesentlich den Ablauf sozialer Situationen. Bei Begutachtungen mit Vor-Ort-Begehungen existieren unterschiedliche soziale Situationen, welche in ihrer Gesamtheit dazu beitragen, formal korrekte und vertretbare Entscheidungen zu produzieren. Doch wie gestalten sich die Interaktionen, wenn Begutachtungsverfahren in die Virtualität überführt werden? Welche Folgen ergeben sich für den Begutachtungs…
Inside regular lab meetings
Scheduled meetings are associated with standardization and understood as a bureaucratic form of coordination, control, and rule observation. In attending assemblies of a research team in optical physics for over a year, we found regular lab meetings are compulsory for all their members and are an avenue to announce and give information about new and changed institutional regulations, to supervise members' activities and their output. But more imp…
Random grant allocation from the researchers' perspective
Discussions about funding research grants by lottery have centered on weighing the pros and cons of peer review, but this focus does not fully account for how an idea comes across in the field of science to those researchers directly dependent on research funding. Not only do researchers have personal perspectives, but they are also shaped by their experiences and the positions they occupy in the field of science. Applying Bourdieu's field theory…
Getting more out of interviews. Understanding interviewees' accounts in relation to their frames of orientation
This paper contributes to an ongoing debate about the validity of interview data and the ways in which they are interpreted in the 'interview society'. We understand the need for an extensive reliance on interviews and, at the same time, recognise the serious limitations that exist regarding access to the interviewee's worldview, their motivations and orientations. A crucial problem in this regard and the main concern of our paper is how to inter…

Professorinnen und Professoren in der akademischen Selbstverwaltung. Eine Rekonstruktion handlungsleitender Orientierungsrahmen
Zu den zentralen Aufgaben einer Professur an deutschen Universitäten gehört neben Forschung und Lehre die Beteiligung an der akademischen Selbstverwaltung, wobei sich die Hochschulforschung vor allem auf die ersten beiden Berufsfelder konzentriert. Die wenigen Erkenntnisse zum Engagement in der Selbstverwaltung beziehen sich vorrangig auf veränderte organisationale Aspekte. Dieser Beitrag zeigt, wie mit Hilfe der praxeologischen Wissenssoziologie…
Unconventional ideas conventionally arranged
Exceptional research involves exceptional, rather than established, approaches, theories, methods and technologies. Nevertheless, to gain funding for such research, scientists are forced to outline unconventional ideas in ways that still relate to recognized concepts and findings, as well as adhering to the conventional requirements of relevant fields of research. Surprisingly, we know very little about the approaches scientists take to overcome …
The representation of street art on Flickr. Studying reception with visual content analysis
Street art is public art; it’s accessible; it’s of the people; it’s an urban voice; it’s on public view; it’s on-the-street. Nonetheless, the World Wide Web has been party responsible for street art becoming both recognised and popular. As a result, this study is investigating how street art is represented on the open photo-sharing platform, Flickr. It is a social network site offering a large portfolio of photographs showing a wide range of imag…

Defacing Election Posters
Even in this media-centric age of the Internet, newspapers, television, and social networking, election posters are a significant form of communication in political campaigns. They are strategically placed to promote candidates and convince voters. However, viewers are not just passive receivers; they can also reciprocate and “jam” an election poster. This article offers an explorative approach to such practices to study their creation and usage.…

Defining Visual Street Art
Street art has a variety of expressive forms and themes. This article presents findings about a particular medium of street art, stencil graffiti, and its makers in Leipzig. In three analytical procedures, stencil-makers' orientations and practices are investigated in order to explore visual street art. Based on interviews with street artists, actual stencil graffiti, and a cross-table analysis, my documentary interpretation reveals distinctive f…
Inhaltliche Ausrichtung und stabile Beschäftigungsverhältnisse
Weisungsgebundene Ressortforschungseinrichtungen haben den Auftrag, sich in erster Linie praxisorientierter Problemstellungen anzunehmen und dazu zu forschen. In der Folge haben die dort beschäftigten Wissenschaftler nur eingeschränkte Möglichkeiten, Grundlagenforschung zu betreiben und an der fachspezifischen Erkenntnisgenerierung teilzuhaben. Vor dem Hintergrund der wissenschaftlichen Habitualisierung solcher Erwartungen untersucht der Beitrag …
Visual protest material as empirical data
In recent years, various elaborate visual methods have been introduced for carrying out empirically controlled sociological studies. However, in contrast to other sociological sub-fields, research on protest events or social movements rarely employs visual analytic procedures. In this article, a research sample of visual protest material is taken to show how applied visual methods can increase the outcome of protest or social movement research. T…
Errichtung und Zurechnung von Ressortforschungseinrichtungen. Eine Frage des Bedarfs an wissenschaftlicher Expertise
The Constitution and Attribution of Government Research Agencies. A Matter of Need for Science‐generated Policy Knowledge? Government research agencies are a form of extra‐university research institutions. In contrast to other extra‐university research facilities they are subordinate to and financed by respective German governmental departments. As their mission they provide science‐generated information, services, and monitoring to support the g…
Widerstand denken
Die Allgegenwart der Foucault'schen Theorie einer Mikrophysik der Macht blockiert immer wieder Versuche, seine theoretischen Ansätze für eine Untersuchung von Widerstandspotenzialen fruchtbar zu machen. Das Buch greift die daraus resultierende Lücke auf und nähert sich Foucaults Werk aus verschiedenen Perspektiven an. Dabei werden nicht nur die Potenziale zur Analyse von Widerständigkeiten seines Werkes selbst identifiziert und ihre Grenzen aufge…
BSE, Vogelgrippe & Co
BSE, Vogelgrippe oder Gammelfleisch - diese Stichworte sind ein fester Bestandteil der massenmedialen Berichterstattung. Welchen Stellenwert haben aber solche Ereignisse für die Menschen im Alltag? Wie arrangieren sie sich mit der permanenten Skandalisierung? Welche Skandale lösen bei ihnen überhaupt noch Irritationen aus? Diese Fragen bilden die Grundlage für eine empirisch-soziologische Untersuchung des alltäglichen Umgangs mit Lebensmittelskan…
