This paper presents novel methods for creating human-centric illustrative maps for visualizing the movement dynamics in virtual 3D environments. The methods allow a viewer to gain rapid insight into traffic density and flow. The illustrative maps represent vehicle behavior as light threads. Light threads are a familiar visual metaphor caused by moving light sources producing streaks in a long-exposure photograph. A vehicle’s front and rear lights produce light threads that convey its direction of motion as well as its velocity and acceleration. The accumulation of light threads allows a viewer to quickly perceive traffic flow and density. The light-thread technique is a key element to effective visualization systems for analytic reasoning, exploration, and monitoring of geospatial processes.

To understand position and orientation of aggregated components of a CSG model, we need to realize its visible and occluded parts as a whole. Hence, transparency and enhanced outlines are key techniques to assist comprehension. We present a novel real-time rendering technique for visualizing design and spatial assembly of CSG models. As enabling technology we combine an image-space CSG rendering algorithm with blueprint rendering. Blueprint rendering applies depth peeling for extracting layers of ordered depth from polygonal models and then composes them in sorted order facilitating a clear insight of the models. We develop a solution for implementing depth peeling for CSG models considering their depth complexity. Capturing surface colors of each layer and later combining the results allows for generating order-independent transparency as one major rendering technique for CSG models. We further define visually important edges for CSG models and integrate an image-space edgeenhancement technique for detecting them in each layer. In this way, we extract visually important edges that are directly and not directly visible to outline a model’s layout. Combining edges with transparency rendering, finally, generates edge-enhanced depictions of image-based CSG models and allows us to realize their complex, spatial assembly.

T3 - Built environment city studies N2 - This book explores and debates the urban transformations that have taken place in Vienna over the past 30 years and their consequences in policy fields such as labour and housing, political and social participation and the environment. Historically, European cities have been characterised by a strong association between social cohesion, quality of life, economic ambition and a robust State. Vienna is an excellent example for that. In more recent years, however, cities were pressured to change policy principles and mechanisms in the context of demographic shifts, post-industrial transformations and welfare recalibration which have led to worsened social conditions in many cities. Each chapter in this volume discusses Vienna's responses to these pressures in key policy arenas, looking at outcomes from the context-specific local arrangements. Against a theoretical framework debating the European city as a model of inclusion and social justice, authors explore the local capacity to innovate urban policies and to address new social risks, while paying attention to potential trade-offs. The book questions and assesses the city's resilience using time series and an institutional analysis of four key dimensions that characterise the European city model within the context of post-industrial transition: redistribution, recognition, representation and sustainability. It offers a multiscalar perspective of urban governance through labour, housing, participatory and environmental policies, bringing together different levels and public policy types.

Recent developments, such as intensified economic investment and exposure to aggressive strategies of banks, hedge- funds and investors, and long- term processes of market- and state- led urban restructuration, have produced uneven urban geographies and new forms of exclusion and marginality. These strategies have no less transformed the governance of cities by subordinating urban social life to rationalities and practices of competition within and between cities, and they also heavily impact on city inhabitants’ experience of everyday life. Against the backdrop of recent austerity politics and a marketisation of cities, this volume discusses processes of urban neo- liberalisation with regard to democracy and citizenship, inclusion and exclusion, opportunities, and life- chances. It addresses pressing issues of commodification of housing and home, activation of civil society, vulnerability, and the right to the city.

Is there a new quality of relations between Jews and non-Jews, despite or precisely because of the Holocaust trauma? How is the memory of the extermination of 6 million European Jews reflected in memorial events and literature, film, drama, and visual arts media? To what degree do European Jews feel as integrated people, as Europeans per see, and as safe citizens? An interdisciplinary team of historians, cultural anthropologists, sociologists, and literary theorists answers these questions for Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Germany. They show that the Holocaust has become an enduring topic in public among Jews and non-Jews. However, Jews in Europe work self-confidently on their future on the "old continent," new alliances, and in cooperation with a broad network of civil forces. Non-Jewish interest in Jewish history and the present has significantly increased over decades, and networks combatting anti-Semitism have strengthened.

ETL workflows populate those systems with data from various data sources by specifying and executing a DAG of transformations. Over time, hundreds of individual workflows evolve as new sources and new requirements are integrated into the system. The maintenance and evolution of large-scale ETL systems requires much time and manual effort. A key problem is to understand the meaning of unfamiliar attribute labels in source and target databases and ETL transformations. Hard-to-understand attribute labels lead to frustration and time spent to develop and understand ETL workflows. We present a schema decryption technique to support ETL developers in understanding cryptic schemata of sources, targets, and ETL transformations. For a given ETL system, our recommender-like approach leverages the large number of mapped attribute labels in existing ETL workflows to produce good and meaningful decryptions. In this way we are able to decrypt attribute labels consisting of a number of unfamiliar few-letter abbreviations, such as UNP_PEN_INT, which we can decrypt to UNPAID_PENALTY_INTEREST. We evaluate our schema decryption approach on three real-world repositories of ETL workflows and show that our approach is able to suggest high-quality decryptions for cryptic attribute labels in a given schema. N2 - Extract-Transform-Load (ETL) Tools werden häufig beim Erstellen, der Wartung und der Weiterentwicklung von Data Warehouses, Data Marts und operationalen Datenbanken verwendet. ETL Workflows befüllen diese Systeme mit Daten aus vielen unterschiedlichen Quellsystemen. Ein ETL Workflow besteht aus mehreren Transformationsschritten, die einen DAG-strukturierter Graphen bilden. Mit der Zeit entstehen hunderte individueller ETL Workflows, da neue Datenquellen integriert oder neue Anforderungen umgesetzt werden müssen. Die Wartung und Weiterentwicklung von großen ETL Systemen benötigt viel Zeit und manuelle Arbeit. Ein zentrales Problem ist dabei das Verständnis unbekannter Attributnamen in Quell- und Zieldatenbanken und ETL Transformationen. Schwer verständliche Attributnamen führen zu Frustration und hohen Zeitaufwänden bei der Entwicklung und dem Verständnis von ETL Workflows. Wir präsentieren eine Schema Decryption Technik, die ETL Entwicklern das Verständnis kryptischer Schemata in Quell- und Zieldatenbanken und ETL Transformationen erleichtert. Unser Ansatz berücksichtigt für ein gegebenes ETL System die Vielzahl verknüpfter Attributnamen in den existierenden ETL Workflows. So werden gute und aussagekräftige "Decryptions" gefunden und wir sind in der Lage Attributnamen, die aus unbekannten Abkürzungen bestehen, zu "decrypten". So wird z.B. für den Attributenamen UNP_PEN_INT als Decryption UNPAIN_PENALTY_INTEREST vorgeschlagen. Unser Schema Decryption Ansatz wurde für drei ETL-Repositories evaluiert und es zeigte sich, dass unser Ansatz qualitativ hochwertige Decryptions für kryptische Attributnamen vorschlägt.

In the case of model-driven software engineering, employed versioning approaches also have to handle situations where different artifacts, that is, different models, are linked via automatic model transformations. In this report, we propose a technique for jointly handling the transformation of multiple versions of a source model into corresponding versions of a target model, which enables the use of a more compact representation that may afford improved execution time of both the transformation and further analysis operations. Our approach is based on the well-known formalism of triple graph grammars and a previously introduced encoding of model version histories called multi-version models. In addition to showing the correctness of our approach with respect to the standard semantics of triple graph grammars, we conduct an empirical evaluation that demonstrates the potential benefit regarding execution time performance. N2 - Ähnlich zu konventionellen Softwareprojekten erfordern Projekte im Bereich der modellgetriebenen Softwareentwicklung eine adäquate Verwaltung mehrerer Versionen von Entwicklungsartefakten. Eine solche Versionsverwaltung muss es insbesondere ermöglichen, zeitweise mit Inkonsistenzen zu leben. Im Fall der modellgetriebenen Softwareentwicklung muss ein verwendeter Ansatz zusätzlich mit Situationen umgehen können, in denen verschiedene Entwicklungsartefakte, das heißt verschiedene Modelle, durch automatische Modelltransformationen verknüpft sind. In diesem Bericht schlagen wir eine Technik für die integrierte Transformation mehrerer Versionen eines Quellmodells in entsprechende Versionen eines Zielmodells vor. Dies ermöglicht die Verwendung einer kompakteren Repräsentation der Modelle, was zu verbesserten Laufzeiteigenschaften der Transformation und weiterführender Operationen führen kann. Unser Ansatz basiert auf dem bekannten Formalismus der Tripel-Graph-Grammatiken und einer in früheren Arbeiten eingeführten Kodierung von Versionshistorien von Modellen. Neben einem Beweis der Korrektheit des Ansatzes in Bezug auf die standardmäßige Semantik von Tripel-Graph-Grammatiken führen wir eine empirische Evaluierung durch, die den potenziellen Performancevorteil der Technik demonstriert.

A1 - Hirschfeld, Robert T1 - Transmorphic T1 - Transmorphic BT - mapping direct manipulation to source code transformations BT - Abbilden von direkter Manipulation zu Transformationen im Programmtext N2 - Defining Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) through functional abstractions can reduce the complexity that arises from mutable abstractions. Recent examples, such as Facebook's React GUI framework have shown, how modelling the view as a functional projection from the application state to a visual representation can reduce the number of interacting objects and thus help to improve the reliabiliy of the system. This however comes at the price of a more rigid, functional framework where programmers are forced to express visual entities with functional abstractions, detached from the way one intuitively thinks about the physical world. In contrast to that, the GUI Framework Morphic allows interactions in the graphical domain, such as grabbing, dragging or resizing of elements to evolve an application at runtime, providing liveness and directness in the development workflow. Modelling each visual entity through mutable abstractions however makes it difficult to ensure correctness when GUIs start to grow more complex. Furthermore, by evolving morphs at runtime through direct manipulation we diverge more and more from the symbolic description that corresponds to the morph. Given that both of these approaches have their merits and problems, is there a way to combine them in a meaningful way that preserves their respective benefits? As a solution for this problem, we propose to lift Morphic's concept of direct manipulation from the mutation of state to the transformation of source code. In particular, we will explore the design, implementation and integration of a bidirectional mapping between the graphical representation and a functional and declarative symbolic description of a graphical user interface within a self hosted development environment. We will present Transmorphic, a functional take on the Morphic GUI Framework, where the visual and structural properties of morphs are defined in a purely functional, declarative fashion. In Transmorphic, the developer is able to assemble different morphs at runtime through direct manipulation which is automatically translated into changes in the code of the application. In this way, the comprehensiveness and predictability of direct manipulation can be used in the context of a purely functional GUI, while the effects of the manipulation are reflected in a medium that is always in reach for the programmer and can even be used to incorporate the source transformations into the source files of the application. N2 - Das Definieren von graphischen Benutzeroberflächen mittels funktionaler Abstraktionen, kann die Komplexität der Verwaltung des Zustandes der Anwendung erheblich reduzieren. Aktuelle Beispiele, wie Facebook's Framework *React*, zeigen auf, wie das modellieren der visuellen Schnittstelle als eine funktionale Projektion vom Zustand der Anwendung zur graphischen Repräsentation, die Anzahl der agierenden Objekte erheblich reduzieren und so die Verlässlichkeit des Systems erhöhen kann. Der Preis für die so erreichte Stabilität, ist eine relativ statische graphische Repräsentation, die sich zur Laufzeit nicht dynamisch anpassen lässt und in der jede visuelle Entität nur mittles funktionaler Abstraktionen beschrieben werden kann, was nicht unserem intuitiven Verständnis der Welt entspricht. Im Gegensatz dazu, erlaubt das Rahmenwerk Morphic mittles Interaktionen wie Ziehen, Greifen oder Skalieren von visuellen Elementen, die grahische Darstellung der Anwendung zur Laufzeit in einer unmittelbaren ("live") und direkten Art und Weise weiter zu entwickeln. Um diese Flexibilität zu erreichen, modelliert Morphic allerdings jedes graphische Objekt mittels veränderlichem Zustand, was das Garantieren der Fehlerfreiheit von graphischen Oberfläche, insbesondere bei sehr komplexen Schnittstellen, deutlich erschwehrt. Hinzu kommt, dass die dynamischen Anpassungen zur Laufzeit dazu führen, dass sich die Oberfläche mehr und mehr von ihrer ursprünglichen symbolischen Definition entfernt, da Morphic von selbst die Änderungen in der Laufzeit nicht im Quellcode reflektieren kann. Die Frage ist also ob es eine Kombination beider Ansätze gibt, welche es vermag die Vorteile zu erhalten und Nachteile wenn möglich auszugleichen. Als Lösung für dieses Problem schlagen wir vor das Konzept der direkten Manipulation aus Morphic auf Transformationen im Quellcode zu übertragen. Hierfür werden wir das Design, die Implementierung und Integration einer bidirektionalen Abbildung zwischen graphischer Darstellung und einer funktionalen, deklarativen symbolischen Beschreibung in einer selbsterhaltenden Entwicklungsumgebung erörtern. Wir werden Transmorphic vorstellen, eine funktionale Variante des Morphic Frameworks, in der visuelle und strukturelle Eigenschaften in einer strikt funktionalen und daher deklarativen Art und Weise definiert werden. Innerhalb von Transmorphic hat der Entwickler die Möglichkeit verschieden Morphs zur Laufzeit mittels direkter Manipulation zusammenzusetzen, was direkt zu Änderungen im Quellcode der Anwendung übersetzt wird. Auf diese Weise kann die verständliche und nachvollziehbare direkte Interaktion aus Morphic, im Kontext einer vollständig funktional beschriebenen graphischen Benutzeroberfläche verwendet werden.

By combining theoretical and methodological analyses with individual case studies, this book offers readers conceptualizations and tools to systematically examine value change and explore the drivers and mechanisms of these processes. These case studies scrutinize value change in the foundational norms of the post-1945 order and in norms representing the rise of the international legal order post-1990. They cover diverse issues: the prohibition of torture, the protection of women’s rights, the prohibition of the use of force, the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, sustainability norms, and accountability for core international crimes. The challenges to each norm, the reactions by norm defenders, and the fate of each norm are also studied. Combined, the analyses show that while a few norms have remained surprisingly robust, several are changing, either in substance or in legal or social validity. The book concludes by integrating the conceptual and empirical insights from this interdisciplinary exchange to assess and explain the ambiguous nature of value change in international law beyond the extremes of mere progress or decline.

But supporting and developing primitive functions requires more effort than maintaining and using code in the hosted language since debugging is harder, and the turn-around times for VM parts are higher. Furthermore, source artifacts of primitive functions are seldom reused in new implementations of the same language. And if they are reused, the existing API usually is emulated, reducing the performance gains. Because of recent results in tracing dynamic compilation, the trade-off between performance and ease of implementation, reuse, and changeability might now be decided adversely. In this work, we investigate the trade-offs when creating primitives, and in particular how large a difference remains between primitive and hosted function run times in VMs with tracing just-in-time compiler. To that end, we implemented the algorithmic primitive BitBlt three times for RSqueak/VM. RSqueak/VM is a Smalltalk VM utilizing the PyPy RPython toolchain. We compare primitive implementations in C, RPython, and Smalltalk, showing that due to the tracing just-in-time compiler, the performance gap has lessened by one magnitude to one magnitude. N2 - Wenn man eine Programmiersprache als Virtuelle Maschine (VM) realisiert, dann wird Verhalten, das man als Teil der VM, also primitiv, implementiert normalerweise schneller ausgeführt, als vergleichbare Funktionen die in der implementierten Sprache verfasst wurden. Aber die Entwicklung und Wartung von primitiven Funktionen erfordert mehr Anstrengung als die Wartung und Benutzung von Funktionen der implementierten Sprache, da Fehlerbehebung schwerer ist, und die Entwicklungszyklen für VM-Teile länger sind. Im Gegensatz zu Programmen, die in der implementierten Programmiersprache geschrieben sind, wird Quelltext von Primitiven selten wiederverwendet. Und falls sie wiederverwendet werden, dann wird die Schnittstelle zur VM meist emuliert, was den Geschwindigkeitsvorteil reduziert. Aber aufgrund von neueren Resultaten der ablaufverfolgenden dynamischen Kompilierung, könnte die Abwägung zwischen Geschwindigkeit einerseits und Implementierungsaufwand, Wiederverwendbarkeit und Änderbarkeit andererseits nun zugunsten von letzteren ausfallen. In dieser Arbeit untersuchen wir, welche Abstriche bei der Implementierung von Verhalten als Primitive gemacht werden müssen, insbesondere wie hoch die Laufzeitunterschiede zwischen Primitiven und gehosteten Funktionen noch sind. Um das zu erreichen haben wir die algorithmische Primitive BitBlt drei mal für RSqueak/VM implementiert. RSqueak/VM ist eine Smalltalk VM, die die PyPy RPython-Toolkette verwendet. Wir vergleichen die Primitivenimplementierungen in C, RPython und Smalltalk, und zeigen, dass aufgrund eines ablaufverfolgenden just-in-time-Übersetzers der Geschwindigkeitsunterschied um eine Größenordnung auf eine Größenordnung gefallen ist.

The centre of this PKS issue’s attention is a particular form of tourism: Township tourism, i.e. guided tours to the residential areas of the black population. About 300,000 tourists per year visit the townships of Cape Town. The tours are also called Cultural, Social, or Reality Tours. The different aspects of township tourism in Cape Town were subject of a geographic field study, which was undertaken during a student research project of Potsdam University in 2007. The text at hand presents the empirical results of the field study, and demonstrates how townships are constructed as spaces of tourism. N2 - Seit dem Ende der Apartheid gewinnt in Südafrika der internationale Tourismus eine immer größere ökonomische Bedeutung. In diesem PKS-Heft steht eine besondere Form des Tourismus im Mittelpunkt, der Township Tourismus. Dabei handelt es sich um geführte Touren in die Wohngebiete der schwarzen Bevölkerung. Etwa 300.000 Touristen besuchen in Kapstadt jährlich die Townships. Die Touren werden auch als Cultural, Social oder Reality Tours bezeichnet. Im Jahr 2007 untersuchten Potsdamer Geographen/innen im Rahmen eines Studienprojektes die unterschiedlichen Aspekte des Township Tourismus in Kapstadt. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die empirischen Ergebnisse dieses Forschungsaufenthaltes vorgestellt. Es wird gezeigt, wie Townships als touristische Räume konstruiert werden.

It reduces the risk of changing their software and allows them to manage different configurations and to collaborate with others more efficiently. This is amplified by code sharing platforms such as GitHub or Bitbucket. Most version control systems track files (e.g., Git, Mercurial, and Subversion do), but some programming environments do not operate on files, but on objects instead (many Smalltalk implementations do). Users of such environments want to use version control for their objects anyway. Specialized version control systems, such as the ones available for Smalltalk systems (e.g., ENVY/Developer and Monticello), focus on a small subset of objects that can be versioned. Most of these systems concentrate on the tracking of methods, classes, and configurations of these. Other user-defined and user-built objects are either not eligible for version control at all, tracking them involves complicated workarounds, or a fixed, domain-unspecific serialization format is used that does not equally suit all kinds of objects. Moreover, these version control systems that are specific to a programming environment require their own code sharing platforms; popular, well-established platforms for file-based version control systems cannot be used or adapter solutions need to be implemented and maintained. To improve the situation for version control of arbitrary objects, a framework for tracking, converting, and storing of objects is presented in this report. It allows editions of objects to be stored in an exchangeable, existing backend version control system. The platforms of the backend version control system can thus be reused. Users and objects have control over how objects are captured for the purpose of version control. Domain-specific requirements can be implemented. The storage format (i.e. the file format, when file-based backend version control systems are used) can also vary from one object to another. Different editions of objects can be compared and sets of changes can be applied to graphs of objects. A generic way for capturing and restoring that supports most kinds of objects is described. It models each object as a collection of slots. Thus, users can begin to track their objects without first having to implement version control supplements for their own kinds of objects. The proposed architecture is evaluated using a prototype implementation that can be used to track objects in Squeak/Smalltalk with Git. The prototype improves the suboptimal standing of user objects with respect to version control described above and also simplifies some version control tasks for classes and methods as well. It also raises new problems, which are discussed in this report as well. N2 - Versionsverwaltung ist unter Softwareentwicklern weit verbreitet. Sie verringert das Risiko beim Ändern der Software und erlaubt den Entwicklern verschiedene Konfigurationen zu verwalten und effizienter zusammenzuarbeiten. Dies wird durch Plattformen zum Teilen von Code wie GitHub oder Bitbucket zusätzlich unterstützt. Die meisten Versionsverwaltungssysteme verfolgen Dateien (z.B. Git, Mercurial und Subversion), aber manche Programmierumgebungen arbeiten nicht mit Dateien, sondern mit Objekten (viele Smalltalk-Implementierungen tun dies). Nutzer dieser Umgebungen möchten Versionsverwaltung für ihre Objekte dennoch einsetzen können. Spezialisierte Versionsverwaltungssysteme, wie die für Smalltalk verfügbaren (z.B. ENVY/Developer und Monticello), konzentrieren sich auf Methoden, Klassen und Konfigurationen selbiger. Andere von Benutzern definierte und konstruierte Objekte können damit oftmals gar nicht oder nur über komplizierte Umwege erfasst werden oder es wird ein fest vorgegebenes Format zur Serialisierung verwendet, das nicht für alle Arten von Objekten gleichermaßen geeignet ist. Desweiteren können beliebte, bereits existierende Plattformen für dateibasierte Versionsverwaltung von diesen Systemen nicht verwendet werden oder Adapterlösungen müssen implementiert und gepflegt werden. Um die Situation von Versionsverwaltung für beliebige Objekte zu verbessern, stellt diese Arbeit ein Framework zum Nachverfolgen, Konvertieren und Speichern von Objekten vor. Es erlaubt Editionen von Objekten in einem austauschbaren, bestehenden Backend-Versionsverwaltungssystem zu speichern. Plattformen für dieses System können daher weiterbenutzt werden. Nutzer und Objekte können beeinflussen, wie Objekte zur Versionsverwaltung erfasst werden. Domänenspezifische Anforderungen lassen sich umsetzen. Das Speicherformat (d.h. das Dateiformat, wenn ein dateibasiertes Backend benutzt wird) kann auch von Objekt zu Objekt anders sein. Verschiedene Editionen von Objekten können verglichen und Änderungen auf Objektgraphen übertragen werden. Ein allgemeiner Ansatz zum Erfassen und Wiederherstellen von Objekten wird beschrieben, welcher jedes Objekt als eine Ansammlung von Slots betrachtet. Dadurch können Nutzer sofort anfangen ihre Objekte zu versionieren, ohne dass sie ihre Objekte zunächst zur Versionsverwaltung erweitern müssen. Die vorgeschlagene Architektur wird anhand einer Prototyp-Implementierung evaluiert, die es erlaubt Objekte in Squeak/Smalltalk mit Git zu versionieren. Der Prototyp verbessert den oben beschriebenen benachteiligten Status von Benutzerobjekten im Bezug auf Versionsverwaltung und erleichtert auch manche Versionsverwaltungs-Operationen für Klassen und Methoden. Er fördert auch neue Probleme zutage, die ebenfalls in dieser Arbeit diskutiert werden. Insofern ist diese Arbeit als ein erster Schritt in Richtung vollumfänglicher Versionsverwaltung für beliebige Objekte zu betrachten.

A prerequisite to verify model transformations at the level of the model transformation specification is that an unambiguous formal semantics exists and that the employed implementation of the model transformation language adheres to this semantics. However, for existing relational model transformation approaches it is usually not really clear under which constraints particular implementations are really conform to the formal semantics. In this paper, we will bridge this gap for the formal semantics of triple graph grammars (TGG) and an existing efficient implementation. Whereas the formal semantics assumes backtracking and ignores non-determinism, practical implementations do not support backtracking, require rule sets that ensure determinism, and include further optimizations. Therefore, we capture how the considered TGG implementation realizes the transformation by means of operational rules, define required criteria and show conformance to the formal semantics if these criteria are fulfilled. We further outline how static analysis can be employed to guarantee these criteria.

BT - Poverty, Tourism, and Poverty Tourism in Windhoek, Namibia N2 - Guided sightseeing tours of the former township of Katutura have been offered in Windhoek since the mid-1990s. City tourism in the Namibian capital had thus become, at quite an early point in time, part of the trend towards utilising poor urban areas for purposes of tourism – a trend that set in at the beginning of the same decade. Frequently referred to as “slum tourism” or “poverty tourism”, the phenomenon of guided tours around places of poverty has not only been causing some media sensation and much public outrage since its emergence; in the past few years, it has developed into a vital field of scientific research, too. “Global Slumming” provides the grounds for a rethinking of the relationship between poverty and tourism in world society. This book is the outcome of a study project of the Institute of Geography at the School of Cultural Studies and Social Science of the University of Osnabrueck, Germany. It represents the first empirical case study on township tourism in Namibia. It focuses on four aspects: 1. Emergence, development and (market) structure of township tourism in Windhoek 2. Expectations/imaginations, representations as well as perceptions of the township and its inhabitants from the tourist’s perspective 3. Perception and assessment of township tourism from the residents’ perspective 4. Local economic effects and the poverty-alleviating impact of township tourism The aim is to make an empirical contribution to the discussion around the tourism-poverty nexus and to an understanding of the global phenomenon of urban poverty tourism.

L. AustinTheatre has a remarkable capacity: it touches from a distance. The audience is affected, despite their physical separation from the stage. The spectators are moved, even though the fictional world presented to them will never come into direct touch with their real lives. Shakespeare is clearly one of the master practitioners of theatrical touch. As the study shows, his exceptional dramaturgic talent is intrinsically connected with being one of the great thinkers of touch. His plays fathom the complexity and power of a fascinating notion – touch as a productive proximity that is characterised by unbridgeable distance – which philosophers like Friedrich Nietzsche, Maurice Blanchot, Jacques Derrida, Luce Irigaray and Jean-Luc Nancy have written about, centuries later. By playing with touch and its metatheatrical implications, Shakespeare raises questions that make his theatrical art point towards modernity: how are communities to form when traditional institutions begin to crumble? What happens to selfhood when time speeds up, when oneness and timeless truth can no longer serve as reliable foundations? What is the role and the capacity of language in a world that has lost its seemingly unshakeable belief and trust in meaning? How are we to conceive of the unthinkable extremes of human existence – birth and death – when the religious orthodoxy slowly ceases to give satisfactory explanations? Shakespeare’s theatre not only prompts these questions, but provides us with answers. They are all related to touch, and they are all theatrical at their core: they are argued and performed by the striking experience of theatre’s capacities to touch – at a distance Y1 - 2023 SN - 978-1-4744-9784-8 SN - 978-1-4744-9785-5 SN - 978-1-4744-9782-4 U6 - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781474497848 PB - Edinburgh University Press CY - Edinburgh ER - TY - BOOK A1 - Klinke, Paula A1 - Verhoeven, Silvan A1 - Roth, Felix A1 - Hagemann, Linus A1 - Alnawa, Tarik A1 - Lincke, Jens A1 - Rein, Patrick A1 - Hirschfeld, Robert T1 - Tool support for collaborative creation of interactive storytelling media N2 - Scrollytellings are an innovative form of web content. Combining the benefits of books, images, movies, and video games, they are a tool to tell compelling stories and provide excellent learning opportunities. Due to their multi-modality, creating high-quality scrollytellings is not an easy task. Different professions, such as content designers, graphics designers, and developers, need to collaborate to get the best out of the possibilities the scrollytelling format provides. Collaboration unlocks great potential. However, content designers cannot create scrollytellings directly and always need to consult with developers to implement their vision. This can result in misunderstandings. Often, the resulting scrollytelling will not match the designer’s vision sufficiently, causing unnecessary iterations. Our project partner Typeshift specializes in the creation of individualized scrollytellings for their clients. Examined existing solutions for authoring interactive content are not optimally suited for creating highly customized scrollytellings while still being able to manipulate all their elements programmatically. Based on their experience and expertise, we developed an editor to author scrollytellings in the lively.next live-programming environment. In this environment, a graphical user interface for content design is combined with powerful possibilities for programming behavior with the morphic system. The editor allows content designers to take on large parts of the creation process of scrollytellings on their own, such as creating the visible elements, animating content, and fine-tuning the scrollytelling. Hence, developers can focus on interactive elements such as simulations and games. Together with Typeshift, we evaluated the tool by recreating an existing scrollytelling and identified possible future enhancements. Our editor streamlines the creation process of scrollytellings. Content designers and developers can now both work on the same scrollytelling. Due to the editor inside of the lively.next environment, they can both work with a set of tools familiar to them and their traits. Thus, we mitigate unnecessary iterations and misunderstandings by enabling content designers to realize large parts of their vision of a scrollytelling on their own. Developers can add advanced and individual behavior. Thus, developers and content designers benefit from a clearer distribution of tasks while keeping the benefits of collaboration. N2 - Scrollytellings sind innovative Webinhalte. Indem sie die Vorteile von Büchern, Bildern, Filmen und Videospielen vereinen, sind sie ein Werkzeug um Geschichten fesselnd zu erzählen und Lehrinhalte besonders effektiv zu vermitteln. Die Erstellung von Scrollytellings ist aufgrund ihrer Multimodalität keine einfache Aufgabe. Verschiedene Berufszweige wie Content-Designer:innen, Grafikdesigner:innen und Entwickler:innen müssen zusammenarbeiten, um das volle Potential des Scrollytelingformats auszuschöpfen. Jedoch können ContentDesigner:innen Scrollytellings nicht direkt selbst erstellen, sondern müssen ihre Vision stets gemeinsam mit Entwickler:innen umsetzen. Dabei können unnötige Iterationen über das Scrollytelling auftreten, wenn dieses den Visionen der Content-Designer:innen noch nicht entspricht. Außerdem können Missverständnisse entstehen. Unser Projektpartner Typeshift hat sich auf die Erstellung von, für seine Kund:innen individualisierten, Scrollytellings spezialisiert. Aufbauend auf Typeshifts Erfahrungen und Expertise haben wir einen Editor entwickelt, um Scrollytellings in der Live-Programmierumgebung lively.next zu erstellen. In lively.next wird eine graphische Oberfläche für die Erstellung von Inhalten mit weitreichenden Möglichkeiten zur Programmierung von Verhalten durch das Morphic-System kombiniert. Der Editor erlaubt es Content-Designer:innen eigenständig große Teile des Erstellungsprozesses von Scrollytellings durchzuführen, zum Beispiel das Erzeugen visueller Elemente, deren Animation sowie die Feinjustierung des gesamten Scrollytellings. So können Entwickler:innen sich auf die Erstellung von komplexen interaktiven Elementen, wie Simulationen oder Spiele, konzentrieren. Zusammen mit Typeshift haben wir die Nutzbarkeit unseres Editors durch die Nachbildung eines bereits existierenden Scrollytellings evaluiert und mögliche Verbesserungen identifiziert. Unser Editor vereinfacht den Erstellungsprozess von Scrollytellings. Content Designer:innen und Entwickler:innen können jetzt beide an demselben Scrollytelling arbeiten. Durch den Editor, der in lively.next integriert ist, können beide Parteien mit den ihnen bekannten und vertrauten Werkzeugen arbeiten. Durch den Editor verringern wir unnötige Iterationen und Missverständnisse und erlauben Content-Designer:innen große Teile ihrer Vision eines Scrollytellings eigenständig umzusetzen. Entwickler:innen können zusätzliches, individuelles Verhalten hinzufügen. So profitieren Entwickler:innen und Content-Designer:innen von einer besseren Aufgabenteilung, während die Vorteile von Zusammenarbeit bestehen bleiben.

This dataset is the oldest corpus of Georgian chants from which the time synchronous F0-trajectories for all three voices have been reliably determined (Müller et al. 2017). It is therefore of outstanding importance for the understanding of the tuning principles of traditional Georgian vocal music. The aim of the present study is to use various computational methods to analyze what these recordings can contribute to the ongoing scientific dispute about traditional Georgian tuning systems. Starting point for the present analysis is the re-release of the original audio data together with estimated fundamental frequency (F0) trajectories for each of the three voices, beat annotations, and digital scores (Rosenzweig et al. 2020). We present synoptic models for the pitch and the harmonic interval distributions, which are the first of such models for which the complete Erkomaishvili dataset was used. We show that these distributions can be very compactly be expressed as Gaussian mixture models, anchored on discrete sets of pitch or interval values for the pitch and interval distributions, respectively. As part of our study we demonstrate that these pitch values, which we refer to as scale pitches, and which are determined as the mean values of the Gaussian mixture elements, define the scale degrees of the melodic sound scales which build the skeleton of Artem Erkomaishvili’s intonation. The observation of consistent pitch bending of notes in melodic phrases, which appear in identical form in a group of chants, as well as the observation of harmonically driven intonation adjustments, which are clearly documented for all pure harmonic intervals, demonstrate that Artem Erkomaishvili intentionally deviates from the scale pitch skeleton quite freely. As a central result of our study, we proof that this melodic freedom is always constrained by the attracting influence of the scale pitches. Deviations of the F0-values of individual note events from the scale pitches at one instance of time are compensated for in the subsequent melodic steps. This suggests a deviation-compensation mechanism at the core of Artem Erkomaishvili’s melody generation, which clearly honors the scales but still allows for a large degree of melodic flexibility. This model, which summarizes all partial aspects of our analysis, is consistent with the melodic scale models derived from the observed pitch distributions, as well as with the melodic and harmonic interval distributions. In addition to the tangible results of our work, we believe that our work has general implications for the determination of tuning models from audio data, in particular for non-tempered music.

Fanselow and Meinunger deal with verb second (V2) movement in German main clauses. Fanselow argues that head movement of the substitution type follows the standard minimalist conceptions of Merge and Move and is therefore not subject to the same objections as head movement as head adjunction which violates Chomsky's minimalist extension condition, operates countercyclically, and fails to let the moved head c-command its trace. Fanselow argues for V2 movement as head movement of the substitution type. Meinunger discusses a restriction on V2 movement imposed by phrases like "mehr als" ('more than'), as in "Der Wert hat sich weit mehr als verdreifacht" ('the value has far more than tripled') where V2 movement is ruled out (cf. *"Der Wert verdreifachte sich mehr als"). Meinunger claims that this restriction is best analysed in phonological terms: the preposition/complementiser "als" acts as a prefixal clitic to its host, the finite verb, which therefore may not move without it. With respect to the V2 debate, Meinunger argues for an interface perspective. He shows that V2 is restricted from both the conceptual and the phonological interface. Vogel, finally, discusses the syntax of clause-final verbal complexes and their dialectal variation in German. He compares three different syntactic analyses, a minimalist head movement analysis, a minimalist XP movement analysis, and an Optimality theoretic PF movement analysis. The three accounts are evaluated relative to the additional assumptions they have to make, the complications they face and how they fit the observations. Vogel argues in favour of the phonologically oriented OT analysis because of its ability to create a direct link between the coming about of a particular word order pattern and its basically phonological trigger. Each of the three papers recognises the relevance of surface forms in the analysis of German verb movement. They differ, however in the extent to which phonological aspects take part in the explanations they offer.

Multiple economic and political strategies, employed by a variety of individual and collective actors, on a number of scales, constitute cities as contested spaces that hold opportunities as well as restrictions for their inhabitants. While cities and urban spaces have long been of central concern for the social sciences, today, classical sociological questions about the city acquire new meaning: Can cities be spaces of emancipation, or does life in the modern city entail a corrosion of citizenship rights? Is the city the focus of societal transformation processes, or do urban environments lose importance in shaping social reality and economic relationships? Furthermore, new questions urgently need to be asked: What is the impact of different historical phenomena such as neo-liberal restructuring, financial and economic crises, or migration flows, as well as their respective counter-movements, on the structure of contemporary cities and on the citizenship rights of city inhabitants? The three volumes address such crucial questions thereby opening up new spaces of debate on both the city and new developments of urbanism. The contributions to Theories and Concepts offer new theoretical reflections on the city in a philosophical and historical perspective as well as fresh empirical analyses of social life in urban contexts. Chapters not only critically revisit classical and modern philosophical considerations about the nature of cities but no less discuss normative philosophical reflections of urban life and the role of religion in historical processes of the emergence of cities. Composed around the question whether there can be such a thing as a ‘successful city’, this volume addresses issues of urban political subjectivities by considering the city’s role in historical processes of emancipation, the fight for citizenship rights, and today’s challenges and opportunities with regard to promoting social justice, integration, and diversity. Consequentially, theory-driven empirical analyses offer new insight into ways of solving problems in urban contexts and a genuine approach to analyse the Social Quality in cities.

The paper explores the key question of how the PBC/PBF’s mandate has been translated into operational practice in the field. It concludes that though the overall impact has been mainly positive and welcomed by the country, translating the general mandate into concrete activities remains a real challenge at the country level.

Debate, however, has focused primarily on whether it was a true 'system' of government, or rather a collection of ad-hoc measures undertaken to stabilise the empire after the troubled period of the 3rd century CE. The papers collected here aim to go beyond this question and to present an innovative approach to a fascinating period of Roman history by understanding the Tetrarchy not as a system of government, but primarily as a political language. Their focus thus lies on the language and ideology of the imperial college and court, on the performance of power in imperial ceremonies, the representation of the emperors and their enemies in the provinces of the Roman world, as well as on the afterlife of Tetrarchic power in the Constantinian period.

The socialistic systems were not able to fulfill the necessary functions in providing a certain degree of redistribution and social security, which are inevitable for social oriented market economies. Increasing income and wage differentiation is one of the most important prerequisites for a market oriented ability to pay tax system. But in the transformation period, numerous quasi-legal or even illegal property transactions have taken place, thus leading to wealth concentrations on the one hand while as consequence of the bankruptcy of socialism, enormous poverty problems have arisen on the other. For the political acceptance of the transformation process it is of utmost importance that an efficient and fair tax system is implemented and social security is organised by the state on a level which secures at least the physical minimum of subsistence or – if economically possible – even a social-cultural minimum. Whether the state should go further in providing compulsory social insurance systems has been a hotly debated topic for decades even in the welfare and social states of the Western type. Whereas the basic security systems have to be financed by general tax revenue, for a compulsory social insurance system – due to the insurance character – special earmarked social security contribution are held necessary. Both public goods and services as well as at least basic security have to be financed by total tax revenue. For the acceptance and fairness of the whole system the total redistributive effect of both sides of the budget – the tax system as well as the expenditure system – are decisive. In this paper we will concentrate on the revenue side, e.g. on the taxes as well as on the social security contributions. Adam Smith had already formulated some very simple tax norms which have been transformed in modern tax theory. The equivalence as well as the ability-topay principle are basic yardsticks for every tax system in a democratic oriented market system, not to forget tax fairness. In the historical development process equity-oriented measures have often produced an enormous complexity of the single taxes as well as of the whole tax system. Therefore, reconsidering the Smithian principles of simplicity and of minimum compliance costs for the tax payer would even press many Western European tax systems to undergo serious reform processes which often are delayed because of intense interest group influence. Hence, a modern tax system is a simple one which consists only of a few single taxes which are easy to administer. Such a system consists of two main taxes, the income and the value added tax. Consequently in all countries of transition both taxes have been implemented, while the implementation was fostered by the fact that both also constitute the typical components of the EU member states systems. Therefore such a harmonising tax reform is the most important prerequisite to become a membership candidate. Bulgaria also tried to follow this general pattern in reforming the income tax system starting in 1992 and replacing the old socialistic turnover tax and excise duty system by the value added tax (VAT) in 1994. Especially with regard to the income tax system the demand for simplicity has not been met yet. Complex rules to define the tax base as well as a steeply progressive tax schedule have led to behavioral adaptations which are even strengthened by the effects of a high social contribution burden which is predominantly laid on the employers. In the following some concise descriptions of the tax and social contribution system are given; the paper closes with a summary, in which the impacts of the system are evaluated and some political recommendations for further reforms are presented.

Understanding the causes, forms, and consequences of aggression and violence is critical for dealing with these harmful forms of social behavior. Addressing a range of sub-topics, the firstpart deals with the definition and measurement of aggression, presents major theories, examines the development of aggression and discusses individual and gender differences in aggressive behaviour. It covers the role of situational factors in eliciting aggression and the impact of exposure to violence in the media. The second part examines specific forms and manifestations of aggression, including chapters on aggression in everyday contexts and in the family, sexual aggression, intergroup aggression, and terrorism. The new edition also includes additional coverage of gender differences, gun violence, and terrorism, to reflect the latest research developments in the field. Alsodiscussing strategies for reducing and preventing aggression, this bookis essential reading for students and researchers in psychology and related disciplines, as well as practitioners andpolicy makers.

Potsdam CY - Potsdam ER - TY - BOOK A1 - Figari Layús, Rosario T1 - The role of transitional justice in the midst of ongoing armed conflicts BT - the case of Colombia T3 - Potsdamer Studien zu Staat, Recht und Politik N2 - Between 2002 and 2006 the Colombian government of Álvaro Uribe counted with great international support to hand a demobilization process of right-wing paramilitary groups, along with the implementation of transitional justice policies such as penal prosecutions and the creation of a National Commission for Reparation and Reconciliation (NCRR) to address justice, truth and reparation for victims of paramilitary violence. The demobilization process began when in 2002 the United Self Defence Forces of Colombia (Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia, AUC) agreed to participate in a government-sponsored demobilization process. Paramilitary groups were responsible for the vast majority of human rights violations for a period of over 30 years. The government designed a special legal framework that envisaged great leniency for paramilitaries who committed serious crimes and reparations for victims of paramilitary violence. More than 30,000 paramilitaries have demobilized under this process between January 2003 and August 2006. Law 975, also known as the “Justice and Peace Law”, and Decree 128 have served as the legal framework for the demobilization and prosecutions of paramilitaries. It has offered the prospect of reduced sentences to demobilized paramilitaries who committed crimes against humanity in exchange for full confessions of crimes, restitution for illegally obtained assets, the release of child soldiers, the release of kidnapped victims and has also provided reparations for victims of paramilitary violence. The Colombian demobilization process presents an atypical case of transitional justice. Many observers have even questioned whether Colombia can be considered a case of transitional justice. Transitional justice measures are often taken up after the change of an authoritarian regime or at a post-conflict stage. However, the particularity of the Colombian case is that transitional justice policies were introduced while the conflict still raged. In this sense, the Colombian case expresses one of the key elements to be addressed which is the tension between offering incentives to perpetrators to disarm and demobilize to prevent future crimes and providing an adequate response to the human rights violations perpetrated throughout the course of an internal conflict. In particular, disarmament, demobilization and reintegration processes require a fine balance between the immunity guarantees offered to ex-combatants and the sought of accountability for their crimes. International law provides the legal framework defining the rights to justice, truth and reparations for victims and the corresponding obligations of the State, but the peace negotiations and conflicted political structures do not always allow for the fulfillment of those rights. Thus, the aim of this article is to analyze what kind of transition may be occurring in Colombia by focusing on the role that transitional justice mechanisms may play in political negotiations between the Colombian government and paramilitary groups. In particular, it seeks to address to what extent such processes contribute to or hinder the achievement of the balance between peacebuilding and accountability, and thus facilitate a real transitional process. N2 - Zwischen 2002 und 2006 hat die kolumbianische Regierung von Álvaro Uribe einen Demobilisierungsprozess von paramilitärischen Gruppen und der Implementierung von Transitional Justice-Mechanismen durchgeführt als einem politischen Versuch, Frieden in Kolumbien durchzusetzen. Der Demobilisierungsprozess wurde durch einen sondergesetzlichen Rahmen geregelt: durch das Gesetz 782, das Dekret 128 und das Gesetz 975. Insbesondere das Gesetz 975 aus dem Jahr 2005, auch bekannt als das „Gesetz für Gerechtigkeit und Frieden“ (Ley de Justicia y Paz), bietet Strafmilderung für angeklagte Mitglieder illegaler Gruppen, die Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit und Mord begangen haben. Um diese Strafmilderung in Anspruch nehmen zu können, sind die angeklagten Ex-Kombattanten im Gegenzug aufgefordert, Informationen über ihre ehemalige Gruppe zu erteilen und illegal angeeignete Güter auszuhändigen. Um den Demobilisierungsprozess im Einklang mit Transitional Justice-Prinzipien umzusetzen, wurden eine Vielzahl von Institutionen eingerichtet: acht Sondergerichtskammern, eine Sondereinheit der Staatsanwaltschaft (Unidad Nacional de Fiscalia para la Justicia y la Paz), ein staatlicher Fonds für Entschädigung (Fondo de Reparación) und eine Nationale Kommission für Wiedergutmachung und Versöhnung (Comisión Nacional de Reparación und Reconciliación). In Kolumbien herrscht seit mehr als 40 Jahren ein bewaffneter Konflikt. Es ist der längste bewaffnete Konflikt in der westlichen Welt. An diesem Konflikt sind der Staat, die rechtsgerichteten Paramilitärs und linksgerichtete Guerillagruppen beteiligt. Bis heute hat der Staat in weiten Teilen des Landes de facto kein Gewaltmonopol über einige Gebiete, die stattdessen von der Guerilla oder den Paramilitärs beherrscht werden. Die paramilitarischen Gruppen sind für die überwiegende Zahl von Menschenrechtsverletzungen seit mehr als 30 Jahren verantwortlich. Als Folge wurden tausende Bauernfamilien von ihrem Land vertrieben. Kolumbien steht mit drei Millionen Binnenvertriebenen nach dem Sudan weltweit an zweiter Stelle. Neben Bauern sind auch andere Gruppen Opfer des Konflikts, vor allem Afro-Kolumbianer, Frauen, Gewerkschaftsfunktionäre, Menschenrechtsverteidiger und Journalisten. Vor diesem Hintergrund ist eine wesentliche Voraussetzungen für einen Übergang von Konflikt- zu Frieden, dass der Staat die Garantie der Nicht-Wiederholung der vorausgegangenen Verbrechen und die Stärkung der demokratischen Bürgerrechte sicherstellt. In diesem Zusammenhang sind Transitional Justice-Instrumente, wie u. a. Strafverfolgungen und Amnestie, Wahrheits- und Versöhnungskommissionen, Wiedergutmachungen und Demobilisierungsprozesse zu sehen, die im Rahmen von Übergangsprozessen eingesetzt werden. Sie verfolgen das Ziel, die Vergangenheit eines gewaltsamen Konfliktes oder Regimes aufzuarbeiten, um so den Übergang zu einer nachhaltig friedlichen demokratischen Gesellschaftsordnung zu ermöglichen. Einerseits wird mit Hilfe von Transitional Justice-Instrumenten versucht, Gerechtigkeit und Entschädigung für die Opfer herzustellen. Andererseits sollen die angeklagten Täter mit Hilfe von Amnestie und Wiedereingliederungsprogrammen in die Gesellschaft reintegriert werden. So steht die Anwendung dieser Instrumente einem Dilemma zwischen Frieden und Gerechtigkeit, Verantwortlichkeit und Straflosigkeit, Strafe und Vergeben gegenüber. Diese Arbeit evaluiert die Umsetzung des Demobilisierungsprozesses, die gerichtlichen Prozesse und die Wiedergutmachungspolitik. Wichtig ist es zu analysieren, ob der Demobilisierungsprozess der paramilitärischen Gruppen einen Übergang von Krieg zu Frieden zum Ergebnis hat. Ein Übergang sollte die Erfüllung der oben erwähnten Bedingungen – Ausübung des legitimen Gewaltmonopols durch den Staat, Garantie der Nicht-Wiederholung von Gewaltverbrechen und die Stärkung von Bürgerrechten – bedeuten.

T1 - The Right to Research BT - historical Narratives by Refugee and Global South Researchers T3 - McGill-Queen's Refugee and Forced Migration Studies N2 - Refugees and displaced people rarely figure as historical actors, and almost never as historical narrators. We often assume a person residing in a refugee camp, lacking funding, training, social networks, and other material resources that enable the research and writing of academic history, cannot be a historian because a historian cannot be a person residing in a refugee camp. The Right to Research disrupts this tautology by featuring nine works by refugee and host-community researchers from across Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. Identifying the intrinsic challenges of making space for diverse voices within a research framework and infrastructure that is inherently unequal, this edited volume offers a critical reflection on what history means, who narrates it, and what happens when those long excluded from authorship bring their knowledge and perspectives to bear. Chapters address topics such as education in Kakuma Refugee Camp, the political power of hip-hop in Rwanda, women migrants to Yemen, and the development of photojournalism in Kurdistan. Exploring what it means to become a researcher, The Right to Research understands historical scholarship as an ongoing conversation - one in which we all have a right to participate.

The second principle is concerned with the social and economic conditions in a just society. The first principle, however, has largely been neglected. It claims, that all people in society should have equal basic liberties. In this paper Rawls's first principle is characterised in a freedom of choice framework. The analysis reveals conceptual problems of the Rawlsian approach to justice.

In the European Union, there has been a latest trend of initiatives aiming for combating illegal content online under the self-regulatory regime. Yet, concerns of this trend were that transparency cannot be ensured properly to safeguard the freedom of expression, and that the private intermediaries are not able to carry out effective regulation under the non-binding regulatory process. Due to these issues, Germany has legislated the Network Enforcement Act in 2017. This thesis used Mixed Methods within a Case Study Research, in order to identify the PPP type of the NetzDG, and to understand its link on transparency and effectiveness, as well as the relationship of these two dimensions. By taking an Exploratory Sequential Design, the German internet content regulation under the NetzDG was explored to understand its co-regulatory regime and to develop an instrument to measure the aspects of transparency and effectiveness. Then, the three big social media platforms, YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook, were examined according to the developed indicators. This thesis concluded as follow: First, the enactment of the NetzDG brought the shift of the regulatory paradigm from the self-regulatory to the co-regulatory. Yet, the actor-inclusive institutional arrangement of the NetzDG did not successfully result in the actual inclusion of actors in decision-making, but only improved the result transparency in the disclosure of take-down actions. Second, the level of effective regulation was not consistent across the three social media platforms under this regime. Despite these limitations, this study showed that the transparency and the effectiveness of the social media platforms’ implementation gradually improved together, instead of having a negative correlation to one another.

Jedoch besteht die Sorge, dass weder Transparenz richtig gewährleistet werden kann, um die Meinungsfreiheit zu schützen, noch dass es für Social Media Plattformen nicht möglich ist, die Regulierungen in einem unverbindlichen Selbstregulierungssystems effektiv durchzusetzen. Aufgrund dieser Probleme verabschiedete Deutschland 2017 das Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz (NetzDG). Diese Masterarbeit nutzt einen Mixed Methods-Ansatz im Rahmen einer Fallstudie, um die Art von Public-Private Partnerships des NetzDG zu bestimmen und um ihre Verbindung zu Transparenz und Effektivität sowie deren Beziehung untereinander zu verstehen. Durch ein exploratives sequentielles Forschungsdesign wurde die deutsche Regulierung von Internetinhalten unter dem NetzDG untersucht, um das ko-regulierende System zu verstehen und um Instrumente zur Messung von Transparenz- und Effektivitätsaspekten zu entwickeln. Dabei wurden die drei großen Social Media Plattformen (YouTube, Twitter und Facebook) in Bezug auf die entwickelten Indikatoren analysiert. Basierend auf den Ergebnissen kommt diese Masterarbeit zu folgenden Schlüssen: Erstens, brachte das Inkrafttreten des NetzDGs einen Wandel des Regulierungsregimes von der Selbstregulierung zur Ko-Regulierung. Die akteurs-übergreifende institutionelle Ausgestaltung des NetzDG führte zwar zu keiner tatsächlichen Einbeziehung der Akteure in die Entscheidungsfindung, sondern hat lediglich die Ergebnistransparenz bei der Offenlegung von Take-down Handlungen verbessert. Zweitens war in den verglichenen drei Social Media Plattformen das Niveau der effektiven Regulierung nicht einheitlich. Trotz dieser Einschränkungen zeigt diese Studie, dass sich die Transparenz und die Effektivität der Umsetzung des NetzDGs durch die Social Media Plattformen gemeinsam sukzessive verbessert haben, statt in einem Trade-off Verhältnis zueinander zu stehen.

Theoretically, Simone Wegmann brings legislatures into focus as the main body representing both winners and losers of democratic elections. Empirically, Wegmann shows that the degree of policy-making power of opposition players varies considerably between countries. Using survey data from the CSES, the ESS, and the LAPOP and systematically analyzing more than 50 legislatures across the world and the specific rights they grant to opposition players during the policy-making process, Wegmann demonstrates that neglecting the curial role of the legislature in a democratic setting can only lead to an incomplete assessment of the importance of institutions for democratic consolidation. The Power of Opposition will be of great interest to scholars of comparative politics, especially those working on questions related to legislative organization, democratic consolidation, and/or public opinion.
