Book excerpt: English summary: The proportion of young people in the total population of Turkey is three times as high as in Germany. A quarter of the young people in Germany have an immigrant background. What stories are hidden behind these numbers? How are young people and their concerns represented in the media and in politics? The papers in this volume address the issue of young people in a Turkish-German context in different ways. They take into account the recent protests in Turkey as well as self-representation and representation in young people's use of language, in films, documentaries and books for adolescents, as well as their status with regard to integration policy.

Book Coming of Age

    Book Details:
  • Author : Martin Kalb
  • Publisher : Berghahn Books
  • Release : 2016-05-01
  • ISBN : 178533154X
  • Pages : 285 pages

Download or read book Coming of Age written by Martin Kalb and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the lean and anxious years following World War II, Munich society became obsessed with the moral condition of its youth. Initially born of the economic and social disruption of the war years, a preoccupation with juvenile delinquency progressed into a full-blown panic over the hypothetical threat that young men and women posed to postwar stability. As Martin Kalb shows in this fascinating study, constructs like the rowdy young boy and the sexually deviant girl served as proxies for the diffuse fears of adult society, while allowing authorities ranging from local institutions to the U.S. military government to strengthen forms of social control.

Book History by Generations

  • Author : Hartmut Berghoff
  • Publisher : Wallstein Verlag
  • Release : 2013-08-05
  • ISBN : 3835322907
  • Pages : 304 pages

Download or read book History by Generations written by Hartmut Berghoff and published by Wallstein Verlag. This book was released on 2013-08-05 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Beiträge des vorliegenden Bandes gehen aus einer gemeinsamen Tagung des Graduiertenkollegs "Generationengeschichte" der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen und des Deutschen Historischen Instituts in Washington hervor. Verschiedene Generationenkonzepte standen sich hier gegenüber: die europäische Idee von "Jugendgenerationen" und "politischen Generationen" und die eher pragmatische amerikanische Lesart von den "demographischen Generationen" oder den "Konsumgenerationen". Immer, so scheint es, wird die generationelle Logik überlagert von nationalen Vorstellungen der Dazugehörigkeit. Sehr deutlich arbeiten die Beiträge aus Europa und den USA heraus, dass die historische Zeit wohl in Generationen gelesen wird, doch wird Geschichte nicht von Generationen gemacht.

Book Modern Japanese society   edited by Josef Kreiner  Ulrich Hohwald and Hans Dieter Olschleger

Download or read book Modern Japanese society edited by Josef Kreiner Ulrich Hohwald and Hans Dieter Olschleger written by Josef Kreiner and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2004 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Japanese society essentially different from other modern industrialized societies, or not? This survey work with contributions from the leading scholars in this complicated field, presents a full overview of the most important aspects of Japanese society which may lead the reader to find an answer to these two often-asked questions. Japanese society, defined as those institutions shaping the life of individuals and groups, as well as being responsible for the dynamics of social development, is shown to be as modern as any other industrialized society; definitely distinct, though, are the ways in which institutions are defined and organised as a result of different social and historical roots of the process of modernization.

Book Challenging Ethnic Citizenship

Download or read book Challenging Ethnic Citizenship written by Daniel Levy and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to most other countries, both Germany and Israel have descent-based concepts of nationhood and have granted members of their nation (ethnic Germans and Jews) who wish to immigrate automatic access to their respective citizenship privileges. Therefore these two countries lend themselves well to comparative analysis of the integration process of immigrant groups, who are formally part of the collective "self" but increasingly transformed into "others." The book examines the integration of these 'privileged' immigrants in relation to the experiences of other minority groups (e.g. labor migrants, Palestinians). This volume offers rich empirical and theoretical material involving historical developments, demographic changes, sociological problems, anthropological insights, and political implications. Focusing on the three dimensions of citizenship: sovereignty and control, the allocation of social and political rights, and questions of national self-understanding, the essays bring to light the elements that are distinctive for either society but also point to similarities that owe as much to nation-specific characteristics as to evolving patterns of global migration.

Book Love Ya Hate Ya

Download or read book Love Ya Hate Ya written by J. Normann Jørgensen and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-22 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume shows the formidable range of variation in youth language. Youth language is analyzed as a phenomenon in negotiations of identities and social relations. The contributions particularly concentrate on youth language in late modern urban societies. This is an area of study which has been gaining increasing attention in sociolinguistics over the past few years. One observation that is almost inevitable is that there is a string of similarities to be found between youths in quite different circumstances, ranging from university students in Argentina, to juvenile delinquents in Greece and to skaters in Greenland. A wide range of language situations are covered, from Danish, Cypriot Greek, Turkish, to Spanish, Greenlandic, Norwegian, Catalan, and of course English. The articles in this anthology document and analyze linguistic youth styles and behaviors as well as attitudes. In their totality they present a picture of youth language as functional, socially valuable, and flexible, with a special emphasis on identity negotiations.

Book Applying the Actor Network Theory in Media Studies

Download or read book Applying the Actor Network Theory in Media Studies written by Spöhrer, Markus and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2016-08-24 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Actor-Network Theory (ANT), originally a social theory, seeks to organize objects and non-human entities into social networks. Its most innovative claim approaches these networks outside the anthropocentric view, including both humans and non-human objects as active participants in a social context; because of this, the theory has applications in a myriad of domains, not merely in the social sciences. Applying the Actor-Network Theory in Media Studies applies this novel approach to media studies. This publication responds to the current trends in international media studies by presenting ANT as the new theoretical paradigm through which meaningful discussion and analysis of the media, its production, and its social and cultural effects. Featuring both case studies and theoretical and methodical meditations, this timely publication thoroughly considers the possibilities of these disparate, yet divergent fields. This book is intended for use by researchers, students, sociologists, and media analysts concerned with contemporary media studies.

Book Society of Singularities

Download or read book Society of Singularities written by Andreas Reckwitz and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-04-21 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our contemporary societies place more and more emphasis on the singular and the unique. The industrial societies of the early 20th century produced standardized products, cities, subjects and organizations which tended to look the same, but in our late-modern societies, we value the exceptional - unique objects, experiences, places, individuals, events and communities which are beyond the ordinary and which claim a certain authenticity. Industrial society’s logic of the general has been replaced by late modernity’s logic of the particular. In this major new book, Andreas Reckwitz examines the causes, structures and consequences of the society of singularities in which we now live. The transformation from industrial to cultural capitalism, the rise of digital technologies and their ‘culture machine’ and the emergence of an educated, urban new middle class form a powerful engine for the singularization of the social. In late modernity, what is singular is valorized and stirs the emotions, while what is general has to remain in the background, and this has profound social consequences. The society of singularities systematically produces devaluation and inequality: winner-takes-all markets, job polarization, the neglect of rural regions and the alienation of the traditional middle class. The emergence of populism and the rise of aggressive forms of nationalism which emphasize the cultural authenticity of one’s own people thus turn out to be the other side of singularization. This prize-winning book offers a new perspective on how modern societies have changed in recent decades and it will be of great value to anyone interested in the forces that are shaping our world today.
