For the German Christians the main motives of their agitation were the creation of a 'volkisch' belief system based on race, Christianity and 'dejudaization' (of Christianity).
Based on the theoretical considerations of spaces, boundaries and exclusion, the article uses the example of the German Christians to show under which conditions individuals are denied entry into an imaginary religious space. 'Exclusivist border crossings,' as this phenomena is named here on the theoretical perspective, can explain how religious arguments exclude people from entering a religious space such as salvation when the access criteria are linked to birth-related conditions.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Madoerin2022, author = {Mad{\"o}rin, Anouk}, title = {Postcolonial surveillance}, series = {Challenging Migration Studies}, journal = {Challenging Migration Studies}, publisher = {Rowman \& Littlefield}, address = {London}, isbn = {978-1-5381-6503-4}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {xix, 167}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Postcolonial Surveillance investigates the long history of the European border regime, focusing on the colonial forerunners of today's border technologies. The book takes a longue dur{\´e}e perspective to uncover how Europe's colonial history continues to shape the high-tech political present and has morphed into EU border migration policies, border security, and surveillance apparatuses. It exposes the racial hierarchies and power relations that form these systems and highlights key moments when the past and present interact and collide, such as in panoptic surveillance, biopolitical registers, biometric sorting, and deterrent media infrastructure. The technological genealogies assembled in this book reveal the unacknowledged histories that had to be rejected for the seemingly clean, unbiased, and neutral technologies to emerge as such.}, language = {en} }
