Download or read book Politik der Inklusion und Exklusion written by Ilker Ataç and published by V&R unipress GmbH. This book was released on 2013 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internal exclusion, rather than full democratic inclusion, characterizes European immigration societies. Migrants build a part of politics and society, yet they are structurally excluded from participation in certain segments of the life. This edited volume aims to contribute to the explanation of the unequal access to differentiated rights and resources by using the concept of inclusion and exclusion. It focuses on material and symbolic mechanisms and conditions, attitudes and discourses, which produce differentiated rights and belongings of migrants. The book includes both conceptual-theoretical and empirical contributions. The topics addressed include: how spatial and temporal criteria regulate the access to social and political rights, which conflicts and negotiation processes over citizenship are taking place, which political actors are involved in these processes, and how civil society protests against exclusion.

Download or read book Integration and Resettlement of Refugees and Forced Migrants written by Karen Jacobsen and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-02-13 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2017, the United States and Europe—among many other refugee-hosting countries—have made significant changes in their refugee policies. New visa restrictions, travel bans, and other regulations were imposed by national governments. At the local level, towns and cities responded in different ways: some resisted national policy by declaring themselves “sanctuary cities”, while others supported exclusionary policies. These different responses influenced refugees’ ability to settle and become integrated. The Refugees in Towns (RIT) project at Tufts University explores local urban integration experiences, drawing on the knowledge and perspectives of refugees and citizens in towns around the world. Since 2017, more than 30 RIT case studies have deepened our local knowledge about the factors that enable or obstruct integration, and the ways in which migrants and hosts co-exist, adapt, and struggle with integration. In this Special Issue, seven articles explore urban integration in towns in Europe (Frankfurt-Rödelheim, Germany; Newcastle, UK; Ambertois, France; Italy’s cities; and Belgrade, Serbia) and in North America: Bhutanese refugee-hosting US cities, and Antigonish, Canada. The papers explore how refugees and citizens interact; the role of officials and politicians in enabling or obstructing integration; the social, economic, and cultural impact of migration; and the ways—inclusive or exclusive—locals have responded.

This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2017 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Politik, Majoritäten, Minoritäten, Note: 1,0, Universität Bielefeld, Veranstaltung: Einführung in die Soziologie des politischen Systems, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese wissenschaftliche Hausarbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, in wie fern die Gesellschaft zu Zeiten des nationalsozialistischen Regimes als ausdifferenziert betrachtet werden kann. Die Annahmen und Auswertungen beziehen sich auf Niklas Luhmanns gesellschaftstheoretischen Ansatz zur Ausdifferenzierung der Gesellschaft. Die theoretischen Annahmen Luhmanns werden auf die Gesellschaftsstrukturen des dritten Reichs angewendet. Das Euthanasieprogramm der Nationalsozialisten im Rahmen der Aktion T4 dient hier als praktischer Bezugsrahmen.
Download or read book The Politicisation of Migration written by Wouter van der Brug and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-27 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are migration policies sometimes heavily contested and high on the political agenda? And why do they, at other moments and in other countries, hardly lead to much public debate? The entrance and settlement of migrants in Western Europe has prompted various political reactions. In some countries anti-immigration parties have gained substantial public support while in others migration policies have been hardly controversial. The Politicisation of Migration examines the differences between seven Western European countries by developing a conceptual framework to empirically explain patterns of politicisation and de-politicisation. The analyses show that over the past decade immigration has been increasingly defined in socio-cultural terms and that it has been receiving less political attention since the economic crisis started in 2007. This book also looks at the role of mainstream parties and political actors in the process of politicisation, and demonstrates how the role of ‘challengers’ is more limited than often assumed. Contributing to literatures on migration, party politics and agenda-setting, the book will be of interest to students and scholars in the fields of politics and migration studies.
Download or read book Protest Movements in Asylum and Deportation written by Sieglinde Rosenberger and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-18 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book deals with contestations “from below” of legal policies and implementation practices in asylum and deportation. Consequently, it covers three types of mobilization: solidarity protests against the deportation of refused asylum seekers, refugee activism campaigning for residence rights and inclusion, and restrictive protests against the reception of asylum seekers. By applying both a longitudinal analysis of protest events and a series of in-depth case studies in three immigration countries, this edited volume provides comparative insights into these three types of movement in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland over a time span of twenty-five years. Embedded in concepts of political change, limited state sovereignty, and migration control, the findings shed light on actors, repertoires, and the effects of protest activities. The contributions illustrate how local contexts, national political settings, issue specifics, and social ties lead to distinctly different forms of protest emergence, dynamics, and strategies. Additionally, they give a profound understanding of the mechanisms and constellations that contribute to protest success, both in terms of preventing deportations of individuals as well as changing policies. In sum, this book constitutes a major contribution to empirically informed theoretical reflections on collective contestation in the fields of refugee studies and social protest movements.
Download or read book Religion and Migration written by Andrea Bieler and published by Evangelische Verlagsanstalt. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores religious discourses and practices of hospitality in the context of migration. It articulates the implied ambivalences and even contradictions as well as the potential to contribute to a more just world through social interconnection with others. The book features contributors from diverse national, denominational, cultural, and racial backgrounds. Their essays reveal a dichotomy of hospitality between guest and host, while tackling the meaning of home or the loss of it, interrogating both the peril and promise of the relationship between religion, chiefly Christianity, and hospitality, and focusing on the role of migrants' vulnerability and agency, by drawing from empirical, theological, sociological and anthropological insights emerged from postcolonial migration contexts. With contributions by Andrea Bieler, Jione Havea, Claudia Hoffmann, HyeRan Kim-Cragg, Claudia Jahnel, Isolde Karle, Buhle Mpofu, Armin Nassehi, Ilona Nord, Henrietta Nyamnjoh, Regina Polak, Ludger Pries, Thomas Reynolds, Harsha Walia, Jula Well, and Birgit Weyel. [Religion und Migration] Dieser Band beschäftigt sich mit religiösen Diskursen und religiöser Praxis, die Gastfreundschaft im Kontext von Migration thematisieren. Dabei werden sowohl Potenziale identifiziert, die in Richtung größerer Gerechtigkeit und sozialer Verbundenheit weisen, als auch Ambivalenzen und Widersprüche. Das Buch präsentiert Beiträge, die verschiedene nationale, konfessionelle, kulturelle und ethnische Kontexte reflektieren. Dabei kommen die problematischen sowie die verheißungsvollen Dimensionen der Dichotomie von Gast- und Gastgebersein in den Blick, die der Fokus auf Gastfreundschaft insbesondere im Christentum impliziert. Die Frage nach dem Zusammenhang von Verletzbarkeit und Handlungsmacht von Migrantinnen und Migranten wird aus empirischer, theologischer, soziologischer sowie anthropologischer Perspektive beleuchtet.
Download or read book Politics of Dis Integration written by Sophie Hinger and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-16 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book explores how contemporary integration policies and practices are not just about migrants and minority groups becoming part of society but often also reflect deliberate attempts to undermine their inclusion or participation. This affects individual lives as well as social cohesion. The book highlights the variety of ways in which integration and disintegration are related to, and often depend on each other. By analysing how (dis)integration works within a wide range of legal and institutional settings, this book contributes to the literature on integration by considering (dis)integration as a highly stratified process. Through featuring a fertile combination of comparative policy analyses and ethnographic research based on original material from six European and two non-European countries, this book will be a great resource for students, academics and policy makers in migration and integration studies. Book Presentation: On April 22, 2021, the University of Sheffield hosted the book presentation on “Politics of (Dis)Integration”. During this event, the editors, Sophie Hinger and Reinhard Schweitzer, discussed the book. The event was chaired by Aneta Piekut and Jean-Marie Lafleur was the discussant.

Download or read book Democratic and Authoritarian Political Systems in 21st Century World Society written by Anna L. Ahlers and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2021-03-31 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the radical novelty of modern polities in a functionally differentiated world society. Premodern states were at the apex of a stratified, hierarchical society. They dominated society and all its groups and strata. Modern polities have to be understood through the ecology of relations among different function systems. They have to find and incessantly redefine their place in society. They produce decisions that are collectively binding, but in preparing these decisions experience constraints and knowledge deficiencies that are related to the complexity of a functionally differentiated society. The book concentrates on six analytical perspectives that reflect how modern polities are embedded into 21st century society. These perspectives are: the concept of inclusion and the inclusion revolution constitutive of modern polities; the internal differentiation of polities that endows them with an unprecedented complexity; the fact that polities do not know anything about society and the ways in which they compensate for this; representation and responsiveness as strategies to reconnect with society; the self-restriction of some polities that brings about ever new autonomous expert organizations; the symmetrical rise of autocracies and democracies as the two modern variants of political regimes.
Download or read book Refugees Welcome written by Jan-Jonathan Bock and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arrival in 2015 and 2016 of over one million asylum seekers and refugees in Germany had major social consequences and gave rise to extensive debates about the nature of cultural diversity and collective life. This volume examines the responses and implications of what was widely seen as the most significant and contested social change since German reunification in 1990. It combines in-depth studies based on anthropological fieldwork with analyses of the longer trajectories of migration and social change. Its original conclusions have significance not only for Germany but also for the understanding of diversity and difference more widely.

Download or read book The Crisis of Representation written by Kurt Appel and published by V&R unipress GmbH. This book was released on 2019-01-21 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term “Crisis of Representation” rose to fame through Michel Foucault. The crisis, in the context of this issue, has not only a political and economic dimension, but a cultural, aesthetic and religious one as well. Thus, a serious inquiry into this complex and multidimensional phenomenon requires an interdisciplinary approach. The issue targets the phenomena at hand through 15 contributions – all with unique and innovative approaches to the topic. One common aim that holds the issue together is the analysis of the nature of the crisis, which helps to find suitable theoretical frameworks. On the other hand, the term itself functions as a tool that enables the analysis of specific societal developments. Contributing authors brought with them expertise from their respective fields including philosophy, political sciences, theology, Islamic studies and religious studies. This allowed for a cross-disciplinary approach on the phenomenon with special foci on politics, religions, societies and finance, as well as theoretical developments on current philosophical and post-colonial discourses.

Book excerpt: Essay aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Politik, Majoritäten, Minoritäten, Note: 1,8, Universität Leipzig (Institut für Politikwissenschaften), Veranstaltung: Identität und Repräsentation - Nation und Ethnizität, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Menschen sind verschieden. Auf diese Diversität muss Schule als Institution und zentrale Bildungsinstanz reagieren sowie damit umgehen. Inwiefern jedoch erfolgt eine Reaktionen auf diese individuelle Varianz? Wie werden Kinder mit ausländischen Wurzeln integriert? Erfolgt nicht etwa eine offene oder verdeckte Exklusion durch die zuständigen Institutionen und somit eine Diskriminierung? Werden die Heranwachsenden durch gesellschaftlich verankerte Prozesse vielleicht sogar immer wieder auf ihr Anderssein festgelegt und wird damit ihre Integration behindert?
Download or read book Migrants and Refugees from the 1960s until Today written by Wolfgang Mueller and published by V&R Unipress. This book was released on 2022-10-10 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the oldest phenomena in the history of mankind is migration, whether peaceful or violent, voluntary or forced, barely noticeable outfl ow or mass movements. In the 19th century, regional migration to frontier territories, as for example in the Russian Empire or the United States of America, was a natural object of research. In the 1960s there was renewed interest in migration history in Western Europe due to the increase of immigration. With the collapse of the Soviet Union and the so-called Eastern Bloc, the history of borders came again into focus, leading to a new generation in migration history. This development was reinforced by the "summer of migration" of 2015. The history of migration to Austria, especially during the Second Republic, has long been a topic overlooked by historians, but received increased attention since the 1980s. The present volume presents research currently being done on the history of migration to or through Austria.
Download or read book Inklusion und Grenzen written by Kathrin Blaha and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2024-04-30 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inklusion ist ein mehrdeutiger sozialer, politischer und pädagogischer Begriff, der von einer Vielzahl an Disziplinen zunehmend auch als analytische Kategorie gefasst wird. Die Beiträger*innen erweitern diesen theoretisierenden Zugang und setzen dabei den Fokus auf das Verhältnis von Inklusion und Grenzen. Aus interdisziplinärer Perspektive zeigen sie, dass Grenzen und Grenzziehungen nicht nur dem Gegenstand Inklusion immanent sind, sondern Inklusion selbst die Logiken und Grenzen disziplinärer Diskurse verschiebt - was einen neuen Blick auf politische Partizipationsfragen, wechselseitige Zu- und Anerkennungsverhältnisse und pädagogische Imperative zulässt.
