Um diese (Selbst-)Darstellungen angemessen analysieren zu k{\"o}nnen, wird zuerst eine analytische Herangehensweise entworfen, die davon ausgeht, dass bestehende soziologische Konzepte, die in erster Linie in Auseinandersetzung mit einem spezifischen (west-europ{\"a}ischen) Kontext entstanden sind, nicht unhinterfragt auf andere Kontexte {\"u}bertragen werden k{\"o}nnen. Das erschwert die Verwendung von Begrifflichkeiten wie „Zivilgesellschaft", „Entwicklung" oder auch der scheinbar klaren Dichotomie von Moderne und Tradition. Eisenstadt machte diese Problematik in der von ihm begonnenen Debatte um „Multiple Modernities" deutlich. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird an diese Diskussion mit handlungstheoretischen Argumenten angekn{\"u}pft, um auch Akteursperspektiven angemessen analysieren zu k{\"o}nnen. Nachdem der theoretische Rahmen und die methodische Grundlage der Arbeit erl{\"a}utert wurden, wird Kontextwissen erarbeitet, um die Analyse der Interviews einzubetten. Es werden Diskurse um Kaste und den Status von Frauen sowie Aspekte der aktuellen politischen Situation Tamil Nadus betrachtet. Die (Selbst-)Darstellungen lassen sich dann anhand der im Titel angedeuteten Dreiteilung aufschl{\"u}sseln: Die Gr{\"u}nder_innen setzen sich zum ersten mit der eigenen Rolle auseinander. Sie beschreiben sich als „social worker" und greifen in den Selbstbeschreibungen zum Teil auf populistische Elemente des politischen Umfeldes zur{\"u}ck. Zum zweiten beschreiben sie die eigene Position gegen{\"u}ber ihren „Zielgruppen". Dabei wird deutlich, dass die Beziehungen zwischen NGO und „community" zwischen Partizipation und Paternalismus schwanken. Zum dritten formulieren sie Zielsetzungen in Abgrenzung zu anderen (lokalen) politischen Akteuren: Sie grenzen sich zum Beispiel von einem ihrem Verst{\"a}ndnis nach „westlichen" Begriff von Entwicklung ab und formulieren demgegen{\"u}ber „eigene" Ziele. Sie reflektieren {\"u}ber lokale Kooperationen, z.B. mit politischen Pers{\"o}nlichkeiten, Kastenassoziationen, aber auch {\"u}ber Abgrenzungen oder Zusammenst{\"o}ße, die sich dabei ergeben. Insgesamt wird deutlich, dass die (Selbst-)Darstellungen der Gr{\"u}nder_innen sich spannungsgeladen und ambivalent auf unterschiedliche Diskurse, Ideen und soziale Praktiken beziehen. Sie lassen sich insbesondere nicht in eine Perspektive von „Entwicklung" einordnen, welche auf der Dichotomie von Moderne und Tradition aufbaut.}, language = {de} } @misc{TurnerContrerasVejar2019, author = {Turner, Bryan S. and Contreras-Vejar, Yuri}, title = {Introduction}, series = {Regimes of happiness : comparative and historical studies}, journal = {Regimes of happiness : comparative and historical studies}, publisher = {Anthem Press}, address = {London}, isbn = {978-1-78308-886-7}, pages = {1 -- 8}, year = {2019}, abstract = {This book started as a conversation about successful societies and human development. It was originally based on a simple idea— it would be unusual if, in a society that might be reasonably deemed as successful, its citizens were deeply unhappy. This combination— successful societies and happy citizens— raised immediate and obvious problems. How might one define "success" when dealing, for example, with a society as large and as complex as the United States? We ran into equally major problems when trying to understand "happiness." Yet one constantly hears political analysts talking about the success or failure of various democratic institutions. In ordinary conversations one constantly hears people talking about being happy or unhappy. In the everyday world, conversations about living in a successful society or about being happy do not appear to cause bewilderment or confusion. "Ordinary people" do not appear to find questions like— is your school successful or are you happily married?— meaningless or absurd. Yet, in the social sciences, both "successful societies" and "happy lives" are seen to be troublesome. As our research into happiness and success unfolded, the conundrums we discussed were threefold: societal conditions, measurements and concepts. What are the key social factors that are indispensable for the social and political stability of any given society? Is it possible to develop precise measures of social success that would give us reliable data? There are a range of economic indicators that might be associated with success, such as labor productivity, economic growth rates, low inflation and a robust GDP. Are there equally reliable political and social measures of a successful society and human happiness? For example, rule of law and the absence of large- scale corruption might be relevant to the assessment of societal happiness. These questions about success led us inexorably to what seems to be a futile notion: happiness. Economic variables such as income or psychological measures of well- being in terms of mental health could be easily analyzed; however, happiness is a dimension that has been elusive to the social sciences. In our unfolding conversation, there was also another stream of thought, namely that the social sciences appeared to be more open to the study of human unhappiness rather than happiness.}, language = {en} } @misc{SturzbecherSchmittRumpRaeuber2002, author = {Sturzbecher, Dietmar and Schmitt, Michael and Rump-R{\"a}uber, Michael}, title = {Extrem rechts in Deutschland}, series = {Wochenschau f{\"u}r politische Erziehung, Sozial- und Gemeinschaftskunde : Ausg.

Its main aim is threefold. First, we spell out the very distinct Durkheimian legacy in Bourdieu's thinking and the way he applies it in researching economic phenomena. Without this background, much of what is actually part of how Bourdieu analysed economic aspects of social life would be overlooked or reduced to mere economic sociology. Second, we sketch the main theoretical concepts and heuristics used to analyse economic life from a field perspective. Third, we focus on practical methodological issues of field-analytical research into economic phenomena. We conclude with a short summary of the basic characteristics of this approach and discuss the main insights provided by the contributions to this special issue.}, language = {en} } @misc{NeubauerWankoSchaubetal.2017, author = {Neubauer, Kai and Wanko, Philipp and Schaub, Torsten H. and Haubelt, Christian}, title = {Enhancing symbolic system synthesis through ASPmT with partial assignment evaluation}, series = {Proceedings of the Design, Automation \& Test in Europe Conference \& Exhibition (DATE), 2017}, journal = {Proceedings of the Design, Automation \& Test in Europe Conference \& Exhibition (DATE), 2017}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York}, isbn = {978-3-9815370-9-3}, issn = {1530-1591}, doi = {10.23919/DATE.2017.7927005}, pages = {306 -- 309}, year = {2017}, abstract = {The design of embedded systems is becoming continuously more complex such that efficient system-level design methods are becoming crucial.

In the paper at hand, we propose a novel ASP modulo Theories (ASPmT) system synthesis approach, which (i) supports more sophisticated system models, (ii) tightly integrates the QF-IDL solving into the ASP solving, and (iii) makes use of partial assignment checking. As a result, more realistic systems are considered and an early exclusion of infeasible solutions improves the entire system synthesis.}, language = {en} } @misc{Kraemer2011, author = {Kr{\"a}mer, Raimund}, title = {Res Publica : eine Einf{\"u}hrung in die Politikwisenschaft}, series = {WeltTrends-Lehrtexte}, volume = {18}, journal = {WeltTrends-Lehrtexte}, publisher = {WeltTrends}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-941880-29-0}, issn = {1861-5139}, pages = {229 S.}, year = {2011}, language = {de} } @misc{HoltmannWeissHirselandetal.2012, author = {Holtmann, Dieter and Weiß, Katharina and Hirseland, Aline-Sophia and Weber, Magdalene and R{\"o}pcke, Julian and Bosse, Jana and Erdmann, Melinda and Thessel, Friederike and G{\"o}rl, Tilo and Klebig, Katja and Wolff, Christina and Goni, Daniela and Grella, Catrina and Nguyen, Thu and Schuster, Anne and Scholze, Nicole}, title = {Die Wohlfahrt der Nationen: 40 L{\"a}nder-Fallstudien zu den Institutionen und ihrer Performanz}, publisher = {Shaker}, address = {Aachen}, isbn = {978-3-8440-1234-7}, issn = {0945-0998}, pages = {424 S.}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @misc{HoltmannHoltmannGoerl2002, author = {Holtmann, Dieter and Holtmann, Elisabeth and G{\"o}rl, Tilo}, title = {Bestandsaufnahme zur kommunalen Pr{\"a}vention von Kriminalit{\"a}t, Gewalt und Fremdenfeindlichkeit im Land Brandenburg}, year = {2002}, language = {de} } @misc{HlepasKerstingKuhlmannetal.2018, author = {Hlepas, Nikos and Kersting, Norbert and Kuhlmann, Sabine and Swianiewicz, Pawel and Teles, Filipe}, title = {Introduction: Decentralization beyond the municipal tier}, series = {Sub-Municipal Governance in Europe}, journal = {Sub-Municipal Governance in Europe}, publisher = {Palgrave}, address = {Basingstoke}, isbn = {978-3-319-64725-8}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-64725-8_1}, pages = {1 -- 24}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In Europe, different countries developed a rich variety of sub-municipal institutions.

It identifies four development phases of the field, which are characterized by three recurrent topics of debate: (1) what is democracy, (2) what is a good measure of democracy, and (3) do our measurements of democracy register real-world developments? As the answers to those questions have been changing over time, the field of democracy measurement has adapted and reached higher levels of theoretical and methodological sophistication. In effect, the challenges facing contemporary social scientists are not only limited to the challenge of constructing a sound index of democracy. Today, they also need a profound understanding of the differences between various measures of democracy and their implications for empirical applications.

At the height of the popularity of structuralism, Jacques Lacan deemed the unconscious to be "structured like a language." Starting in the early 1990s, however, a deep shift occurred in the way the body was interpreted. A new movement cast tremendous doubt on the hegemony of language and instead advocated a performative, pictorial, and affective approach — the so-called material turn — which encompassed all of these. In the words of Karen Barad, this turn inquired as to why meaning, history, and truth are assigned to language only, whereas the movements of materiality are given less prominence: "How did language come to be more trustworthy than matter? Why are language and culture granted their own agency and historicity while matter is figured as passive and immutable?" With this shift toward the material, bodies began to be seen in a different light and their materiality understood as something that follows its own laws and movements, which cannot be understood exclusively in terms of social-cultural codes. Instead, these laws and movements call into question the very dichotomies of nature/culture and body/spirit.}, language = {en} } @misc{OPUS4-11905, title = {Public Management : Grundlagen, Wirkungen, Kritik ; Festschrift f{\"u}r Christoph Reichard zum 65.
