    Description: Knowledge about horses and horse breeding is a cultural asset, which has evolved over centuries. At the same time, it is an essential economic commodity. The anthropological focus on knowledge of this study is on the current parameters of breeding the “Hannoveraner”, one of the world’s largest and also most popular horse breeds. The author conducts participatory observations on agricultural family farms that breed them and follows the development of individual horses from birth to successful athletes. The aim is to identify the genesis and exchange of the various stocks and forms of knowledge. The guiding questions of the analysis are: What is equine knowledge and how is it currently changing? Equine knowledge accumulates between breeders and horses and the diverse other actors and entities of this multispecies constellation in their shared everyday life. Videographic vignettes and photographs open up further access to the, primarily incorporated, knowledges and practices of horse breeding in agricultural environments, which are at the center of the ethnography.

    Description: The Goettingen University acquired in 1773 a private natural history collection from Christian Wilhelm Buettner, one of its professors. This collection became the core of the University’s Academic Museum. In addition to thousands of items of natural history (minerals, plants, zoological items) 66 Art Things were part of Buettner‘s collection. The publication investigates the question, if and how the emergence of scholarly disciplines was stimulated by processes of forming and working with specific collections, taking the development of the Ethnographic collection starting from the 66 Art Things (1773) to the foundation of the Institute and Collection of Völkerkunde (1935/36) and the emergence of Völkerkunde as a university discipline in Göttingen as an example.

    Description: The transformation towards a carbon-neutral society can only succeed in cooperation with citizens and not against them. This edited volume shows ways to achieve this goal. It presents the results of the interdisciplinary project “Experiencing Politics and Law, Shaping the Future” and the project itself. Citizens were at the centre of the project. Supported by experts in law and political science, they developed ideas on how to improve citizen participation in climate policies. In sum, the contributions form a dialogue between the citizens’ perspective, legal and political science analyses and the views of practitioners.

    Description: The present qualitative interview study has set itself the task of reappraising the developments from the emergence to the official ban of the German-speaking Islamic Circle (DIK) and the associated mosque. In order to approach the question of how it was possible for a radical Islamic mosque to emerge and establish itself in the middle of Hildesheim's Nordstadt, we use the "hotbed" approach1 as a basis for analysis. According to this approach, the geographic distribution of the places of origin of those who left to fight in IS territory is by no means evenly distributed; rather, certain places or neighborhoods stand out in which recurring factors that condition radicalization can be identified. To examine why the now-banned Hildesheim mosque association around the convicted "IS chief recruiter" in Germany, Ahmad A. alias "Abu Walaa," became a hotbed, we conducted a total of nine interviews in the spring and summer of 2021. We spoke with members of the local Muslim community and former visitors of the DIK mosque, non-Muslim persons living in the immediate vicinity of the mosque, as well as with representatives of authorities, institutions and civil society institutions. The empirical material is supplemented by an analysis of Abu Walaa's social media content, in particular his Telegram channels, as well as by recordings of various court hearings of the criminal trial against Abu Walaa that we attended.

    Description: Throughout the world, ‘3.11’ and ‘Fukushima’ are used as synonyms for catastrophe, despair and insecurity. In a search for sociocultural meaning in the catastrophic events of ‘3.11’, Wiebke Grimmig examines the role of contemporary Japanese artists in the process by which Japanese society has handled the effects of this triple disaster (earthquake, tsunami and atomic disaster) in Fukushima. She focuses on the emotional processing of these events by her respondents, including their biographical background, their economic concerns and the role of contemporary art in Japanese society. This anthropological research involves the analysis of in-depth interviews with contemporary artists from Tokyo, as well as from other locations along the east coast of Japan. This research was conducted over a 12-month period to elucidate the catastrophic events and effects of the ‘3.11’ disaster. In this work, Wiebke Grimmig examines how contemporary Japanese artists portray catastrophic events in terms of emotion, individuality, power, resilience, politics, economics and communication in their biographical narrative and their work. This doctoral thesis provides an important contribution to the socio-scientific field of disaster research.

    Description: Since 2019, the Research and Documentation Center for the Analysis of Political and Religious Extremisms in Lower Saxony (FoDEx) has been managing the estate of the right-wing extremist multifunctionalist Hans-Michael Fiedler. The processing and evaluation of the legacy makes it possible to make previously untapped sources accessible to research and the (specialist) public. The indexing of the material opens up new perspectives on a central actor of the radical right in Germany as well as its networks in order to better understand the political structures of right-wing radicalism in the long term. This study presents initial results by first focusing on Fiedler's political biographical development from the perspective of actor-centered right-wing extremism research. Using this radical right actor as an example, it analyzes the genesis of the radical right in southern Lower Saxony from the 1960s to the early 1990s.

    Description: Processes of individualization in Egypt, Iran, Lebanon, Senegal and Tunisia are central to current social dynamics and form the key theme of the present volume. The central question is how social transformations inform the field of the religious and how processes of religious change likewise have an impact on social change. The contributions in this volume focus in particular on the realities of life for women from urban middle-class milieus. They show how women’s efforts to shape one's individual life may run counter to established social and religious norms. While analyzing milieu-specific dynamics, particular attention is devoted to the question how processes of social and religious change become manifest in both gender and generational relations. Western ideals of modernity, globalized discourses and respective leisure/fashion-practices as well as expressions of individualized lifestyles have an impact on dynamics of social and religious change and are discussed in this volume in specific religious as well as non-religious social contexts.

    Description: What are the effects of internal migration controls on migrants without a regular residence permit – on “sans papiers”? The book gives an answer to this question with a comparative study of the United States and Germany. Based on expert interviews and in-depth interviews with forty sans papiers, police controls as well as controls in areas such as labor market, health care, housing, schooling and childcare are carefully analysed. The book discusses whether global economic, political or social processes have restricted the ability of advanced capitalist countries to control migration. It argues that migration policy in the OECD countries has become more similar, but this convergence only takes place at the level of policy goals and legal norms. At the level of implementation, national differences persist. The interviews show that sans papiers in the U.S. continue to have many possibilities to participate in society. In contrast, the comprehensive exclusion of sans papiers in Germany confi rms that there is no general “loss of control”.
    Description: Welche Auswirkungen haben interne Migrationskontrollen auf Migrantinnen und Migranten ohne regulären Aufenthaltsstatus - auf »Sans Papiers«? Dieser Frage geht das Buch mit einem Vergleich zwischen den Vereinigten Staaten und Deutschland nach. Anhand von Expertengesprächen und vierzig qualitativen Interviews mit Sans Papiers werden polizeiliche Kontrollen und Kontrollen in den Bereichen Arbeitsmarkt, Gesundheitsversorgung, Wohnen sowie Schule und Kinderbetreuung eingehend untersucht. Das Buch diskutiert, ob globale ökonomische, politische und soziale Prozesse die Fähigkeit von Nationalstaaten einschränken, Migration zu kontrollieren. Es wird gezeigt, dass sich die Migrationspolitik der OECDStaaten in den vergangenen Jahren zwar auf der Ebene der Leitlinien und Gesetze angeglichen hat. Bei der Implementation von Kontrollen bestehen aber nationale Unterschiede fort. Die Interviews belegen, dass Sans Papiers in den USA weiterhin vielfältige Möglichkeiten zur gesellschaftlichen Partizipation haben. Im Gegenzug zeigt das Beispiel Deutschland, dass angesichts der weitgehenden Exklusion von Sans Papiers keine Rede von einem »Kontrollverlust« sein kann.

    Description: Electricity generation from renewable sources of energy has had a long history in Germany and is highly topical. This paper deals with both aspects. A sociological analysis of technology shows how innovative technologies gradually emerged from the Utopian vision of 'velvet' energies, which became the basis of the rapidly growing regenerative electricity production. The second aspect of the paper is an analysis of the growing potential - as well as possible obstacles - of regenerative energies. The expansion of energy production from renewable sources and the tendency towards the concentration of such installations (e.g. large wind farms or solar parks) is increasingly met with opposition from the public. In addition, it is felt that considerable changes in the energy sector can only be successful if its promoters become more active.

    Description: In this qualitative study, familial mediation and appropriation processes are examined in a three-generation perspective, taking into account the in-family development of social development processes in two neighboring subregions. Attention is given not only to the continuity, but also to the adaptations and changes of the forms and content of family traditioning. The linking of a generational perspective with Halbwachs' considerations of collective memory opens up several comparison options. In addition to capturing familial, generational and regional similarities and differences, the dynamics of familial tradition can be worked out in this way.

    Description: In this cultural anthropological examination Frauke Johanna Ahrens enquires into the scientific significance of the herbarium sheets of the Herbarium Göttingen in the period from 1832 to 1852. Based on a historical, object-focused ethnography and praxeology she itemizes how during the establishing phase of the collection institutionalized in 1832 the scientific practices and epistemic interests mutually influenced one another and found expression in the botanical specimens themselves. Each of the five chapters is dedicated to one practice – opening up the collection, ascribing values, acquiring plant material, doing research on herbarium sheets and teaching with herbarium sheets. Together with detailed object descriptions, the analysis emphasizes the materiality of knowledge in this way.

    Description: Social perspective defines the human skill of changing between the point of view of oneself and the other. It takes meta-perspectives and applies them to the different (suspected) point of views. If one knows how the interaction-partner sees the world, one can assume the partner´s willingness to act and consider it for one´s own plan of action.

    Description: The name DGGTB (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie; German Society for the History and Philosophy of Biology) reflects recent history as well as German tradition. The Society is a relatively late addition to a series of German societies of science and medicine that began with the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte der Medizin und der Naturwissenschaften”, founded in 1910 by Leipzig University’s Karl Sudhoff (1853-1938), who wrote: “We want to establish a ‘German’ society in order to gather German-speaking historians together in our special disciplines so that they form the core of an international society…”. Yet Sudhoff, at this time of burgeoning academic internationalism, was “quite willing” to accommodate the wishes of a number of founding members and “drop the word German in the title of the Society and have it merge with an international society”. The founding and naming of the Society at that time derived from a specifi c set of historical circumstances, and the same was true some 80 years later when in 1991, in the wake of German reunification, the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie” was founded. From the start, the Society has been committed to bringing studies in the history and philosophy of biology to a wide audience, using for this purpose its Jahrbuch für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie. Parallel to the Jahrbuch, the Verhandlungen zur Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie has become the by now traditional medium for the publication of papers delivered at the Society’s annual meetings. In 2005 the Jahrbuch was renamed Annals of the History and Philosophy of Biology, refl ecting the Society’s internationalist aspirations in addressing comparative biology as a subject of historical and philosophical studies.

    Description: Pointing at ambivalences and inconsistencies, contradictory expectations, nationalistic and pragmatic points of view, this study shows parts of the becoming, being and remaining (or not) Danish in Germany. Using qualitative methods and a constructivist approach, Levke Bittlinger examines questions of minority- and nationhood with regard to actors and the main institutions within the Danish minority in the Southern Schleswig region. The research ranges from the backgrounds of people becoming Danish in the postwar time to today’s parents sending their children to Danish institutions for social and material matters. The study reaches from the analysis of the role of the Danish school system, the cultural association including their expectations on new Danish people concerning their integration into the minority to the importance of symbols, practices and historical myths for constructing a minority belonging.
    Description: Ambivalenzen und widersprüchliche Erwartungen, nationalistische und postnationale Standpunkte sind Teil eines Dänischwerdens, Dänischseins und Dänischbleibens (oder auch Nichtbleibens) im Landesteil Schleswig. Anhand von qualitativen Methoden und eines konstruktivistischen Ansatzes untersucht Levke Bittlinger Fragen des Minderheitsseins und der nationalen Zugehörigkeitsgefühle unter Akteur*innen und Institutionen der dänischen Minderheit. Die Studie beleuchtet Hintergründe für die Wahl einer dänischen (Teil-)Zugehörigkeit durch beispielsweise den Besuch einer dänischen Schule oder das Engagement im dänischen Kulturverein von der Nachkriegszeit bis heute. Es wird darüber hinaus die Bedeutung von Symbolen, Praxen und historischen Mythen für die Minderheitszugehörigkeit unter die Lupe genommen und analysiert, wie „Neudän*innen“ in Integrationskursen mit den an sie gestellten Erwartungen umgehen.

    Description: In the attic of the botanical institute of the Georg-August University of Göttingen, a pharmacognostic collection was stored for over sixty years, packed in about 50 boxes: a document of a discipline that was represented by the institute until 1938. The collection comprises about 8,000 samples and objects from of materia medica from the 19th and early 20th centuries; it is thus one of the few university collections to have been preserved in almost its entirety - a comparison with contemporary textbooks and pharmacopoeias shows that almost all common drugs are included in numerous variants. The preserved collection samples show that it is not only a scientific reference collection to this day, but that the collection has at the same time taken on important functions in research and teaching including education. Parallel to the cataloguing, the history of the collection was reconstructed in rudimentary form, and natural and cultural studies were carried out on some of the holdings. cultural studies were carried out on some of the holdings. In the process, it became increasingly clear that the potential of the collection as a source material and basis for a large number of studies in the history of science and the natural sciences is considerable; by presenting the collection and its history, we hope to stimulate such studies.

    Description: Auf dem Dachboden des botanischen Instituts der Georg-August Universität Göttingen lagerte über sechzig Jahre, in ca. 50 Kisten verpackt, eine pharmakognostische Sammlung: Dokument einer Fachrichtung, die bis 1938 vom Institut vertreten wurde. Die Sammlung umfasst etwa 8.000 Proben und Objekte aus allen Bereichen der Materia Medica des 19. und beginnenden 20. Jahrhunderts; sie gehört damit zu den wenigen Universitätssammlungen, die in nahezu vollem Umfang erhalten blieben – ein Vergleich mit zeitgenössischen Lehrbüchern und Pharmakopöen zeigt, dass nahezu alle gängigen Drogen in zahlreichen Varianten enthalten sind. Die erhaltenen Sammlungsmuster zeigen, dass es sich nicht nur um eine bis heute wissenschaftliche Referenzsammlung handelt, sondern dass die Sammlung zugleich wichtige Funktionen in Forschung und Lehre inclusive Ausbildung übernommen hat. Parallel zu der Katalogisierung wurde die Geschichte der Sammlung in Ansätzen rekonstruiert, und zu Teilbeständen wurden natur- und kulturwissenschaftliche Studien durchgeführt. Dabei wurde zunehmend deutlich, dass das Potential der Sammlung als Quellenbestand und Grundlage für eine Vielzahl wissenschaftshistorischer und naturwissenschaftlicher Studien erheblich ist; durch die Präsentation des Bestandes und seiner Geschichte hoffen wir, zu solchen Studien anzuregen.

    Description: Recent developments have caused important changes in the IT industry: while being considered comparatively resistant to international relocation of jobs for a long time, the IT industry's landscape has changed a lot in the course of the 1990s, when IT companies started to make use of low-wage destinations and integrated them in globally distributed workflows. According to many authors the internationalisation of the IT industry does not only put jobs in high-wage countries into jeopardy, but also formalizes and standardizes the working processes, thus significantly limiting the employees´ task discretion. Drawing upon case studies in the Indian subsidiaries of two transnationally operating IT companies, the presented study critically questions this prognosis. The results clearly show that the forms of work organisation and control in the IT industry do not develop homogeneously or uniformly in the course of internationalization. Instead, it is possible to identify specific modes of reorganization that are shaped by varying patterns of internationalization, on the one hand, and the institutional settings of the offshore destinations, on the other hand."

    Description: Social perspective defines the human skill of changing between the point of view of oneself and the other. It takes meta-perspectives and applies them to the different (suspected) point of views. If one knows how the interaction-partner sees the world, one can assume the partner´s willingness to act and consider it for one´s own plan of action.
    Description: Sozialperspektivität bezeichnet die menschliche Fähigkeit, zwischen der eigenen Sicht und dem Blick anderer zu wechseln, somit Metaperspektiven einzunehmen und die verschiedenen (vermuteten) Sichtweisen aufeinander zu beziehen. Die Einnahme von Metaperspektiven und die Perspektivenreflexion sind Voraussetzungen für sozial intelligentes Handeln. Wer weiß, wie sich die Welt in den Augen des Interaktionspartners darstellt, kann dessen Handlungsbereitschaften antizipieren und diese bei der eigenen Handlungsplanung strategisch berücksichtigen. Micha Strack stellt im vorliegenden Band den Diskussionsstand zur Sozialperspektivität in der aktuellen psychologischen Forschung vor, ergänzt diesen durch eigene empirische Studien und zeigt die Einsatzmöglichkeiten in der Wirtschafts- und Sozialpsychologie auf.

    Description: The term "social capital" has become a buzzword with a huge, already diffuse spectrum of application. This should give reason for conceptual and theoretical vigilance. What – in concrete - is the object when "social capital" is mentioned? This question has not been systematically dealt with and even less responsed in a satisfactory degree, although there are many contributions to the discussion of the term. The problem is labelled in the social sciences, but has not been resolved in the context of the specific social-scientific framework. This book takes the neglected metalinguistic perspective. Thus it advances the scientific maturity of the "social capital" debate and contributes to the establishment of a well-founded system in social science terms. It brings up social capital by combining an epistemological and ontological analysis and thus finally develops clarification of the concept.

    Description: Global climate change, the extinction of species, animal pests and natural catastrophes dominate debates on the future of the earth. Often these phenomena are considered as something new, which they are not, and many of today's discussions have their roots in the past. Therefore, to cope with our problems, forward-looking thinking has to be combined with understanding for the political, economic, social, and ecological background of our present situation. In their various contributions the authors discuss the importance of the history of ecology. The book comprises the results of a workshop on "History of Ecology and the Future of Ecology" held at the DFG Graduate College in Göttingen in July, 2008.

    Description: Die Debatte um Sozialkapital ist seit geraumer Zeit in Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft und Politik in Mode. Schaut man sich Untersuchungen dazu an, so scheint Sozialkapital für nahezu alles gut zu sein: sei es die Erhöhung des persönlichen Wohlbefindens, die Revitalisierung benachteiligter Stadtquartiere oder die Stärkung der Volkswirtschaft im globalisierten Standortwettbewerb - je mehr Sozialkapital, desto besser! Doch gerade die behauptete enorme Wirkungsbreite sollte zu begrifflicher und theoretischer Wachsamkeit anhalten. Was dient Wissenschaftlern als Gegenstand ihrer Erkenntnisbemühungen, wenn von »Sozialkapital« die Rede ist? Diese Frage klingt banal, ist aber bisher nicht systematisch bearbeitet oder gar in befriedigendem Maße beantwortet worden, obwohl doch zahlreiche Beiträge zur Begriffsdebatte vorliegen. So ist zwar das Problem in den Sozialwissenschaften benannt, doch im Kontext des speziellen sozialwissenschaftlichen Reflexionsrahmens nicht eingelöst worden. Das vorliegende Buch nimmt die bisher vernachlässigte metasprachliche Perspektive ein. Es erhöht damit den wissenschaftlichen Reifegrades der »Sozialkapital«-Debatte und trägt zur Etablierung eines wohlfundierten Systems sozialwissenschaftlicher Begriffe bei. Es bringt Sozialkapital zur Sprache, indem es über eine Kombination einer erkenntnistheoretischen und ontologischen Analyse eine Präzisierung des Objektbereiches erarbeitet.

    Description: For the people in the Early Modern Age, famines were regularly recurring phenomena. So not less than eight of these crises happened in the areas of Lower Saxony between 1690 and 1750, which had a lasting impact on various aspects of life for the contemporaries. Therefore topics of different historical subdisciplines like economic, social, cultural and environmental history are dealt with in this dissertation. Thus, this thesis aims to bridge the gap between climatically and socially determined patterns of hunger. With the help of the concept of vulnerability it is shown that hunger crises can neither be ascribed to natural processes nor human operations exclusively. In fact they were the outcome of a chain of human-nature-interactions and were perceived as such by the contemporaries. A further emphasis of this book is put on the examination of contemporary coping strategies. The hereby worked out explanatory and interpretive models proved to be determining how the contemporaries tried to cope with hunger on a personal and joint level. Regarding the latter it is shown that famines played a decisive role in the consolidation of leadership in the Early Modern Age. Because of their regular recurrence they worked as focal points of the negotiation of sovereignity between authorities and subjects more than any other crisis situation in this process.

    Description: Increasing mechanization is profoundly changing our social areas of life as well as cultural orders and knowledge systems. Concepts of health and illness are also permeated by such technology. A variety of communication techniques are used in the medicalized everyday life: new biotechnologies are combining with home and life techniques; for a long time, a digital self-measurement market has been developed by application techniques; such as, Smartphones, data glasses and Smartwatches. In the meantime, it is easier and faster to operate medical devices and systems. In addition, the data obtained can be exchanged and analyzed faster and faster. A so-called assisted health technology and new information and communication options make the interface between human and machine blurred. The anthology addresses fundamental social, cultural and ethical questions of human-technology interaction and, from a cultural and social scientific research perspective, addresses the question of how technology alters everyday life, cultural orders and knowledge systems.
    Description: Die zunehmende Technisierung verändert weitreichend gesellschaftliche Lebens- und Arbeitsbereiche sowie kulturelle Ordnungen und Wissenssysteme. Konzepte von Gesundheit und Krankheit werden dabei von dieser Technisierung durchdrungen. Eine Vielzahl von Kommunikationstechniken finden mittlerweile ihren Einsatz in medikalisierten Alltagen: neue Biotechnologien verbinden sich mit Techniken des häuslichen Alltags, es hat sich längst ein digitaler Selbstvermessungsmarkt durch Anwendungstechniken wie z.B. Smartphones, Datenbrillen und SmartWatches entwickelt. Es lassen sich medizinische Geräte und Systeme immer einfacher bedienen, die gewonnenen Daten können dabei immer schneller ausgetauscht und ausgewertet werden. Sogenannte assistierte Gesundheitstechnologien, neue Informations- und Kommunikationsmöglichkeiten lassen die Schnittstelle zwischen Mensch und Maschine unscharf werden. Der Sammelband thematisiert grundlegende soziale, kulturelle und ethische Fragen der Mensch-Technik-Interaktion und widmet sich aus kultur- und sozialwissenschaftlicher Forschungsperspektive der Frage, inwieweit Technik den Alltag, kulturelle Ordnungen und Wissenssysteme verändert. Methodisch vereint der Band historisch wie gegenwartsbezogene Beiträge, die unterschiedliche, empirische Quellen in den Blick nehmen: So reicht die Bandbreite von (Ego-)Dokumente über Medienquellen bis hin zu akteurszentrierten Fallbeispielen.

    Description: W National Park lies in the border triangle of Benin, Burkina Faso and Niger in West Africa. Established under French colonial rule in 1927, it was designated as the first African transborder biosphere reserve in 2002. Although the Benin part of the reserve was given a participatory management approach in 2002, illegal hunting, logging, transborder mobile herding and cash cropping continue to pose important threats to the reserve. The whole area, especially the buffer zone, is a source of conflicts between the different adjacent communities and between communities and park administration. The book analyses how the surveillance teams operate in this context. It describes encounters between park surveillance staff and local stakeholders in three different arenas: the park’s core area, adjacent villages and public political forums. It shows how, in a setting dominated largely by cash crop production, the abstract idea „national park“ is being translated by park staff and how in the process local meanings of the idea emerge. Drawing on 14 months of ethnographic research between 2008 and 2010, this book contributes to the current state of research on participatory natural resources management. Moreover, it provides insights into the working of state administration in a context of contradictory policies of conservation and rural development.

    Description: What are the effects of internal migration controls on migrants without a regular residence permit – on “sans papiers”? The book gives an answer to this question with a comparative study of the United States and Germany. Based on expert interviews and in-depth interviews with forty sans papiers, police controls as well as controls in areas such as labor market, health care, housing, schooling and childcare are carefully analysed. The book discusses whether global economic, political or social processes have restricted the ability of advanced capitalist countries to control migration. It argues that migration policy in the OECD countries has become more similar, but this convergence only takes place at the level of policy goals and legal norms. At the level of implementation, national differences persist. The interviews show that sans papiers in the U.S. continue to have many possibilities to participate in society. In contrast, the comprehensive exclusion of sans papiers in Germany confi rms that there is no general “loss of control”.

    Description: Project ‚Integration‘. Berlin District Mothers and the negociation of integration policies The topic of integration is fiercely disputed and influenced by various racisms. This is manifested in social debates as well as the implementation of policies. In her ethnographic case study, Sulamith Hamra examines the complex dimensions of urban integration policies using the example of four so-called district mothers projects in Berlin. The study focuses on negotiation processes relating to the actual implementation of those projects as well as their importance for the policy of integration and representation. It follows and describes the Berlin district mothers projects over the course of more than ten years and reveals their logics and inconsistencies. The study thereby highlights the issues caused by a lack of access to the labour market as well as the significance of the way integration policies are represented in politics and the media.

    Description: The name DGGTB (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie; German Society for the History and Theory of Biology) reflects recent history as well as German tradition. The Society is a relatively late addition to a series of German societies of science and medicine that began with the »Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte der Medizin und der Naturwissenschaften«, founded in 1910 by Leipzig University's Karl Sudhoff (1853-1938), who wrote: »We want to establish a ,German' society in order to gather German-speaking historians together in our special disciplines so that they form the core of an international society...«. Yet Sudhoff, at this time of burgeoning academic internationalism, was »quite willing« to accommodate the wishes of a number of founding members and »drop the word German in the title of the Society and have it merge with an international society«. The founding and naming of the Society at that time derived from a specific set of historical circumstances, and the same was true some 80 years later when in 1991, in the wake of German reunification, the »Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie« was founded. From the start, the Society has been committed to bringing studies in the history and philosophy of biology to a wide audience, using for this purpose its Jahrbuch für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie. Parallel to the Jahrbuch, the Verhandlungen zur Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie has become the by now traditional medium for the publication of papers delivered at the Society's annual meetings. In 2005 the Jahrbuch was renamed Annals of the History and Philosophy of Biology, reflecting the Society's internationalist aspirations in addressing comparative biology as a subject of historical and philosophical studies.

    Description: In the Federal Republic of Germany the number of asylum seekers has fallen considerably in recent years. The recognition rate lies at around one percent. What has happened to the refugees? Are there no longer any reasons to apply for asylum? In order to find asylum seekers, one must look in the new EU member states on the external borders, and to the countries immediately beyond the borders: because of regulations about jurisdiction, more and more refugees become stranded on the edges of the EU and can only reach other European target countries by irregular means. The study shows, using Germany and Poland as examples, how the significance of asylum law has changed over the last 20 years, how this change can be explained, and how it relates to migrants’ strategies. Inthis manner the study offers new insight into the field of asylum policy in three respects: on the one hand, asylum policy is analysed in the context of category construction related to migration policy. In this way the significance of the categorization and hierarchization of ‘desirable and ‘undesirable’ migrants as a central component of ‘migration management’ is revealed. On the other hand, the two studies of individual countries provide an extensive picture of asylum policy in Germany and Poland. By embedding the two case studies in developments at EU level, and relating them to each other, the study offers a new and comprehensive insight into the dynamics which have determined the changes in the European asylum regime in the last two decades.

    Description: Kann Eigentum an Kultur sinnvoll sein? Das Interesse, Cultural Property dem Markt zuzuführen oder dies zu verhindern und hierdurch kollektiven oder individuellen, ideologischen oder ökonomischen Gewinn zu schaffen, gestaltet sich unter den stark divergierenden Bedingungen, die Akteure in einer postkolonialen, spätmodernen Welt vorfinden. Die interdisziplinäre DFG-Forschergruppe zur Konstituierung von Cultural Property beleuchtet diese seit einigen Jahren in der Öffentlichkeit mit wachsender Brisanz verhandelte Frage. Die Forschergruppe fragt nach der Konstituierung von Cultural Property im Spannungsfeld von kulturellen, wirtschaftlichen, juristischen und hiermit auch gesellschaftspolitischen Diskursen. Dies bedingt auch die in dieser fokussierten Form neue Zusammenarbeit von Fachwissenschaftler/innen aus Kultur- und Sozialwissenschaften sowie Rechts-und Wirtschaftswissenschaften. Die Unterschiedlichkeit des disziplinären Zugriffs auf einen Forschungsbereich zeigt sich in den in diesem Band vermittelten ersten Ergebnissen aus der laufenden Forschung genauso deutlich wie die Notwendigkeit, disziplinäre Standpunkte in gemeinsamer Arbeit zusammenzuführen, um den Konstituierungsprozess von Cultural Property zu verstehen.

    Description: Integration ist ein umkämpftes und von vielfältigen Rassismen geprägtes Thema. Dies zeigt sich sowohl in gesellschaftlichen Debatten als auch in der Umsetzung politischer Maßnahmen. In ihrer ethnografischen Fallstudie untersucht Sulamith Hamra die komplexen Dimensionen städtischer Integrationspolitik am konkreten Beispiel von vier sogenannten Stadtteilmütterprojekten in Berlin. Im Fokus der Beobachtung liegen Aushandlungsprozesse um die praktische Realisierung dieser Projekte und deren integrationspolitische und repräsentative Bedeutung. Berliner Stadtteilmütterprojekte und ihre Umsetzungen werden über mehr als zehn Jahre beobachtet und in ihren Logiken und Widersprüchlichkeiten sichtbar gemacht. Die Problematiken fehlender Arbeitsmarktzugänge und die Rolle politischer und medialer Darstellungen von integrationspolitischen Maßnahmen in Deutschland werden dabei in ihrer interaktiven Verschränkung deutlich.

    Description: Gottfried Dietrich Wilhelm Berthold (1854-1937) was one the foremost botanists and phycologists at the end of the 19th century. Born and educated in Westphalia, he enrolled at the Georgia Augusta to study plant sciences and focused on algae. After research stays at the Zoological Station at Naples he succeeded his mentor Johannes Reinke on his chair at the Institute of Plant Physiology at the Georgia Augusta Göttingen until 1923. In this study we focus on the biography of Berthold, his private and scientific life, interaction with J. Reinke and other topics related to the life of Berthold. In a second part we highlight his research on algae at the Gulf of Naples. We conclude with an evaluation of his scientific work in the light of the different phases in his life including a full bibliography of his scientific publications. Our study contributes to history of science at the Georgia Augusta.

    Description: Recent developments have caused important changes in the IT industry: while being considered comparatively resistant to international relocation of jobs for a long time, the IT industry's landscape has changed a lot in the course of the 1990s, when IT companies started to make use of low-wage destinations and integrated them in globally distributed workflows. According to many authors the internationalisation of the IT industry does not only put jobs in high-wage countries into jeopardy, but also formalizes and standardizes the working processes, thus significantly limiting the employees´ task discretion. Drawing upon case studies in the Indian subsidiaries of two transnationally operating IT companies, the presented study critically questions this prognosis. The results clearly show that the forms of work organisation and control in the IT industry do not develop homogeneously or uniformly in the course of internationalization. Instead, it is possible to identify specific modes of reorganization that are shaped by varying patterns of internationalization, on the one hand, and the institutional settings of the offshore destinations, on the other hand."
    Description: Arbeit in den Bereichen Softwareentwicklung und IT-Dienstleistungen galt lange Zeit als weitgehend resistent gegen die internationale Verlagerung. Doch spätestens seit Mitte der 1990er Jahre hat sich das Bild grundsätzlich gewandelt und auch in diesem Bereich der Wirtschaft begannen Unternehmen, ihre Produktion zunehmend zu internationalisieren. Der Internationalisierung wird in der Folge zugeschrieben, die Formen der Arbeitsorganisation und -kontrolle in dieser Branche grundsätzlich zu verändern, da die globale Verlagerung von Arbeitsprozessen deren zunehmende Standardisierung und Formalisierung nach sich ziehe und damit die Arbeit der IT-Beschäftigten in wesentlich direkterer Form der Kontrolle durch das Management unterwerfe. Entgegen dieser Prognose zeigt die vorliegende Arbeit unter Rückgriff auf zwei Fallstudien in transnational operierenden IT-Unternehmen, dass sich in der IT-Industrie im Zuge der Internationalisierung weniger einheitliche Tendenzen der Arbeitsorganisation und -kontrolle durchsetzen. Vielmehr setzen sich unterschiedliche Reorganisationsmodi von Arbeit durch, die mit unterschiedlichen Folgen für die Arbeitssituation der Beschäftigten einhergehen und von dem dynamischen Wechselspiel zwischen variierenden Internationalisierungswegen innerhalb der IT-Industrie und den institutionellen Gegebenheiten der Offshore-Standorte geprägt sind.

    Description: The main reason why Latin America is a cultural diverse region is because of the indigenous peoples who inhabit it. That is why indigenous peoples' interests on their cultural property have to be taken into account when this matter is to be legally regulated in Latin American countries. In order to ascertain whether that has occurred, the book explores relevant legal instruments at the international and regional levels and compares national norms in some Latin American countries, particularly those concerning ownership. It concludes that recognition of indigenous interests in Latin American law on cultural property is still a pending task.
    Description: Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Frage: Wie ist der Schutz von Kulturgütern in Lateinamerika rechtlich geregelt, und in welcher Weise werden indigene Kulturgüter innerhalb solcher Regelungen berücksichtigt? Die Frage besteht aus zwei Teilen. Der erste Teil betrifft eine vergleichende Analyse der geltenden Regelungen über den Schutz materieller Kulturgüter Lateinamerikas. Unterstrichen wird dabei ein Aspekt des Rechtsschutzes von Kulturgütern, nämlich die Regelung des Eigentums. Der zweite Teil der Frage, der sich auf die Berücksichtigung der materiellen Kulturgüter der indigenen Völker bezieht , wird bei der Untersuchung der verschiedenen Rechtsinstrumente beachtet. Dabei geht die Arbeit von der Annahme aus, dass die indigenen Völker ein Interesse an der Kontrolle der mit ihrer Kultur verbundenen Güter haben, welches von den Rechtsnormen in der Regel nicht in Betracht gezogen wird.

    Description: How is the handling of contested “objects” from the German colonial era shaped in ethnological Museums in Germany and Cameroon? This ethnographic study connects, for the first time, approaches from ethnology, (international) law, (art) history and museology which constitute the multidisciplinary field of “return” to deal with this question. Two current return claims of things from Cameroon at ethnological museums in Munich and Berlin take centre stage: Tange/Schiffschnabel and Ngonnso’/Schalenträgerfigur. The reconstruction of the cultural biographies of the contested items documents their part as points of intersection in complex networks of relations and stakeholders from the 19th century to this day. These networks connect people and institutions in Cameroon and Germany and their diverse conceptions and claims on these things in a versatile manner. Return claims, according to the thesis, appear as a magnifying lens which discloses diverging conceptions of things and ontologies.
    Description: Wie gestaltet sich der Umgang mit umstrittenen „Objekten“ aus der deutschen Kolonialzeit in ethnologischen Museen Deutschlands und in Kamerun? Mit dieser Frage beschäftigt sich diese ethnografische Studie, die erstmals ethnologische, (völker)rechtliche, (kunst)historische und museologische Zugänge zum interdisziplinären Feld des Themas „Rückgabe“ verknüpft. Zwei aktuelle Rückgabeforderungen von Dingen aus Kamerun an ethnologische Museen in München und Berlin stehen dabei im Mittelpunkt: Tange/Schiffschnabel und Ngonnso‘/Schalenträgerfigur. Die Rekonstruktion der kulturellen Biographien der umstrittenen Dinge vom 19. Jahrhundert bis heute belegt ihre Rolle als Knotenpunkte in komplexen Beziehungs- und Akteursnetzen. Diese Netzwerke verbinden auf vielfältige Weise Menschen und Institutionen in Kamerun und Deutschland sowie deren unterschiedliche Vorstellungen und Ansprüche auf diese Dinge. Rückgabeforderungen wirken, so die These, wie ein Vergrößerungsglas, welches divergierende Dingverständnisse und Ontologien zutage treten lässt.

    Description: The scientific and public discussions over the last 200 years were shaped by findings from the field of evolutionary biology. Back in 1877, when Ernst Haeckel asked for the inclusion of evolutionary biology into class, he was met with fierce resistance (see Hoßfeld, 2010, p. 56). As Lässig (2010, p. 199) argues, knowledge is socially shaped. The aim of this study is to reveal the development of the significance as well as presentation of evolutionary biological contents in biology class within the SOZ/GDR and to embed it into the context of the respective prevailing political and social developments. Relevant curricula and schoolbooks as the most precise codification of the curricula fixed contents (see Neuner, 1989, p. 411) were used as raw material. For most subjects the history of schoolbooks is barely studied (see Pöggeler, 2003, p. 37). Therefore, as basis for this study, only one primary descriptive thesis about evolutionary biology in class (Rommel, 2006) could be used. Based thereupon an analytical framework will be introduced which follows a multidimensional approach of research by containing aspects of the three reference systems design, subject didactics and subject discipline. Product oriented separate and group analyses were used to evaluate the sources. This was carried out under the primacy of interdisciplinarity via analysis by content. The feedback of sociocultural changes on school books will be clarified in the concluding discussion. It will be shown that evolutionary contents occupied a significant position in biology classes within the SOZ/GDR and that the expression of those contents followed divergent approaches and preferences. The classification of teaching and learning material as an informational, pedagogical and political issue (see Stein, 1991) is taking place in the same context.
    Description: Erkenntnisse aus den Bereichen der Evolutionsbiologie prägten wissenschaftliche und öffentliche Debatten der letzten 200 Jahre. Bereits 1877 forderte Ernst Haeckel ihre Einbindung in den Schulunterricht und stieß damit auf heftigen Widerstand (vgl. Hoßfeld, 2010, S. 56). Wie Lässig (2010, S. 199) darlegt, wird Wissen gesellschaftlich vorstrukturiert. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, die Genese von Stellenwert und Darstellung evolutionsbiologischer Inhalte im Biologieunterricht der SBZ/DDR aufzuzeigen sowie diese in den jeweils herrschenden Kontext politisch-gesellschaftlicher Entwicklungen einzubetten. Ausgangsmaterialien sind relevante Lehrpläne sowie Schullehrbücher als „konkreteste Kodifizierung des in den Lehrplänen fixierten Inhalts“ (Neuner, 1989, S. 411). Eine primär deskriptive Examensarbeit dient der Untersuchung als Grundlage, da die Geschichte des Schülerbuches bisher nur in wenigen Fachbereichen gründlich erforscht ist (vgl. Rommel, 2006; vgl. Pöggeler, 2003, S. 37). Darauf aufbauend wird ein Analyseraster vorgestellt, welches einem multidimensionalen Forschungsansatz folgend, Aspekte der Bezugssysteme Design, Fachdidaktik und Fachwissenschaft Biologie beinhaltet. Die Auswertung der Quellen erfolgt produktorientiert in Einzel- und vertikalen Gruppenanalysen unter dem Primat der Interdisziplinarität mittels inhaltsanalytischer Methoden. Bei der abschließenden Diskussion der Ergebnisse wird die Rückwirkung soziokultureller Veränderungen auf die Schulbücher verdeutlicht. Es wird gezeigt, dass evolutionsbiologischen Inhalten im Biologieunterricht der SBZ/DDR eine exponierte Stellung zukam, deren Darstellung divergenten Ansätzen und Präferenzen folgte. In diesem Zusammenhang erfolgt die Einordnung der Lehr- und Lernmaterialien als Informatorium, Pädagogikum und Politikum (vgl. Stein, 1991).

    Description: In this dissertation, Paul Christensen examines the significant roles played by spirits in Cambodian society. In particular, he focuses on the handling of the traumatic past, the religious identification of Cambodians, the political empowerment of elites through spiritual legitimation strategies, and the living ritual practice of spirit mediums in Cambodia. Based on 13 months of ethnographic field research and an innovative methodology utilizing actor-network theory, the research provides an emic understanding of these religious phenomena in terms of a ‘(re-)enchanted modernity’ that is manifesting itself across Southeast Asia. The dissertation makes a seminal contribution to the scholarly understanding of spirits. It is compelling not only because of the novel connections provided by its methodology; its ethnographic descriptions of social topics such as power, existence, religion, healing, love or mourning provide new insights into religious life in a rapidly changing country.

    Description: This book examines the contribution of the German biologist Herbert Bach (1926 – 1996) to physical anthropology and human genetics in Eastern Germany. It highlights his scientific achievements and publications, his work as director (1960 – 1993) and lecturer at the Institute of Anthropology in Jena (Germany). In order to trace his contributions, this work outlines the previous historical development of the Institute of Anthropology under Hans Friedrich Karl Günther (1930 – 1935) and Bernhard Struck (1936 – 1960). Bach fostered the cooperation between anthropology and genetics by examining anthropological data within a genetic framework. His major accomplishments included the prehistoric anthropology of former populations in central Germany and the implementation of genetic counseling services in Eastern Germany. As director of the Institute of Anthropology, he advanced anthropometrie and prehistoric anthropology and expanded teaching in content and scope. He elaborated new anthropological curricula of biologists, teachers and physicians. In addition Bach re-built the anthropological institute, shifting its focus from ethnology to genetics and expanding the scope of research and teaching. He also integrated the institute into a network of genetic counseling services.
    Description: Das Buch befasst sich mit dem Beitrag Herbert Bachs (1926 – 1996) zur Anthropologie und Humangenetik. Untersucht wurden seine wissenschaftlichen Leistungen auf diesen Gebieten, seine wissenschaftsorganisatorischen Aktivitäten, vor allem als Institutsdirektor, sein Wirken als Hochschullehrer und sein publizistisches Werk. Ausgehend von seinen Vorgängern im Institutsdirektorat, Hans Friedrich Karl Günther (1930 – 1935) und Bernhard Struck (1936 – 1960) wird der Erneuerung der Anthropologie in Jena nachgegangen. Hierbei zeigte sich, dass Bach immer vom Grundsatz der engen Verflechtung von Anthropologie und Humangenetik, insbesondere von der Möglichkeit der Kausalanalyse anthropologischer Befunde mit Hilfe der Genetik ausging. Innerhalb des Instituts legte er die anthropologischen Schwerpunkte auf die Entwicklungs- und die Prähistorische Anthropologie, während er die Humangenetik auf Weiterentwicklung und Anwendung der Labordiagnostik sowie auf die humangenetische Beratung konzentrierte. Seine persönlichen Arbeitsgebiete waren die Prähistorische Anthropologie sowie die humangenetische Beratung und deren Grundlagen. Die Lehre weitete er sowohl hinsichtlich des Inhalts als auch Adressatenkreises erheblich aus, wobei er sich unter anderem für die Integration anthropologischer und humangenetischer Lehrgebiete in das Medizinstudium engagierte. Als Direktor wandelte Bach das anthropologisch-völkerkundliche Institut in eine moderne anthropologisch-humangenetische Lehr- und Forschungsstätte um und prägte zugleich den Aufbau des humangenetischen Beratungsdienstes der DDR wesentlich.

    Description: How is the handling of contested “objects” from the German colonial era shaped in ethnological Museums in Germany and Cameroon? This ethnographic study connects, for the first time, approaches from ethnology, (international) law, (art) history and museology which constitute the multidisciplinary field of “return” to deal with this question. Two current return claims of things from Cameroon at ethnological museums in Munich and Berlin take centre stage: Tange/Schiffschnabel and Ngonnso’/Schalenträgerfigur. The reconstruction of the cultural biographies of the contested items documents their part as points of intersection in complex networks of relations and stakeholders from the 19th century to this day. These networks connect people and institutions in Cameroon and Germany and their diverse conceptions and claims on these things in a versatile manner. Return claims, according to the thesis, appear as a magnifying lens which discloses diverging conceptions of things and ontologies.

    Description: How does a cultural landscape come into being? And how is this process connected to the valorization of objects, sites and spaces as cultural heritage? Based on the example of the Czech-German Ore Mountains the ethnographic study investigates the relationship between practices of inheriting culture and the producton of space. With reference to anthropological heritage and policy studies, the research focuses on national and international heritage governances, particularly those of the UNESCO world heritage prorgram. How are they related to local memory discourses and practices? How do they assist in the promotion of regional tourism and other economic endeavors? What role do EU-policies on European integration play? The Czech-German Ore Mountains region is marked by post-war forced migration and resettlement. Against the background of this complex history, the study shows how collective claims on cultural property are formulated and how a shared, transboundary heritage is negotiated.
