The consumption of media violence and aggressive behavior were assessed three times in a sample of N=1,052 German adolescents with and without migration background over a period of two years with 12-month intervals. The adolescents in the two groups, who were in grades 7 and 8 at T1, were matched by gender, age, type of school, and academic achievement. Students in the migrant group reported higher consumption of violent media. At T3, they showed more physical but less relational aggression than their peers of German background. Cross-lagged panel analyses showed parallel associations between media violence use and aggression in both groups: Media violence consumption at T1 and T2 predicted physical aggression at T2 and T3 independent of ethnic background. The reverse path from physical aggression to media violence consumption was nonsignificant. No link was found between media violence use and relational aggression over time.
Historical narratives play an important role in constructing contemporary notions of citizenship. They are sites on which ideas of the nation are not only reaffirmed but also contested and reframed. In contemporary Germany, dominant narratives of the country's modern history habitually focus on the legacy of the Third Reich and tend to marginalize the country's rich and highly complex histories of immigration. The article addresses this commemorative void in relation to Berlin's urban landscape. It explores how the city's multilayered architecture provides locations for the articulation of marginal memoriesand hence sites of urban citizenshipthat are often denied to immigrant communities on a national scale. Through a detailed examination of a small celebration in 1965 that marked the anniversary of the founding of the modern Turkish republic, the article engages with the layers of history that coalesce around such sites in Berlin.
There Is No Return To Egypt
(2013)
Who are those Polish Jews, who in the wake of the Antizionist Campaign of the year 1968 left their home country and migrated to Israel? How do they, 40 years after these traumatic events, look back at their own history? Which development have they made in the Jewish State, a society torn by wars and inner political tensions? How do they live in Israel at the beginning of the 21st century? In the documentary There Is No Return To Egypt seven members of the Polish-Jewish migration cohort of the late 1960s, early 1970s and there todays environment are represented. These people, while being on camera in their mid-fifties till late seventies of age, allow an intimate view into their Israeli-Polish daily-life and into their world of memories. Interestingly, having survived the atrocities of the Shoah and being forced out of Poland some twenty years later, the older interviewees draw their very own conclusions for their further lives in Israel. In contrast, the younger interviewees deal very differently with the loss of their home and the break in their career life caused by the Antizionist Campaign. The personalities presented in this documentary have various professions: There is a successful musician, a former employee at the Israeli broadcasting service, and there are skilled workers. Their religious identities widely vary: from Jewish orthodox and national-religious to atheist to Judeo-Christian. The protagonists in There Is No Return To Egypt do also represent the political spectrum of Israel: from members of the chauvinist-militarist camp through to members of the peace movement. At the same time, the shooting locations in the documentary are important stages of life for the seven 1968ers: the home being decorated for Shabbat or for Israels national holiday Yom ha-atzmaut, the working place, an army museum, a Jewish settlement in the Palestinian Westbank, a Shoah memorial event at the university campus, a pop concert and a peace demonstration.
Exil oder Heimat?
(2013)
Die Volksrepublik Polen befand sich Ende der 1960er Jahre in einer wirtschaftlichen und innenpolitischen Krise. Das Regime in Warschau nahm den Sechs-Tage-Krieg zwischen Israel und den arabischen Staaten des Jahres 1967 zum Anlass, ein Exempel an den wenigen Zehntausend nach der Schoah im Land verbliebenen Juden zu statuieren und sie als politische Sündenböcke zu brandmarken. Über 3000 polnische Juden wählten in Folge der offiziell lancierten „Antizionistischen Kampagne“ Israel als neues Heimatland. Dort trafen sie auf eine Gesellschaft, die in zahllose Konflikte verstrickt war: den Krieg gegen die benachbarten arabischen Staaten, der Okkupation der Palästinensergebiete und den innenpolitischen Spannungen zwischen europäischen und orientalischen, religiösen und säkularen Juden. Neben einer historischen Einordnung der Migration nimmt der Autor auch deren Analyse unter migrationspsychologischen Aspekten vor. Die beschriebenen Erfahrungen werden im beiliegenden Dokumentarfilm „There Is No Return To Egypt“ veranschaulicht, in dem Zeitzeugen dieser sogenannten 1968er-Migration in ihrem heutigen Lebensumfeld in Israel zu Wort kommen.
In articolul cu titlul "Identități hibride în comunitatea imigranților români" sunt prezentate rezultate parțiale precum și anumite analize a citatelor vorbitorilor din proiectul meu de doctorat cu titlul Sprachkontakt, Migration und Variation: Die frankophone Integration von Rumänen in Paris nach 1989. Lingvistica migratoare observă mișcările migranților români după căderea cortinei de fier. Aceștia au fost nevoiți să suporte consecințele managementului eronat al sistemului comunist. Între 1989 și 2012 mii de români au pǎrǎsit țara. Începând de atunci numărul imigranților români în Paris a crescut în mod significant. Scopul acestei contribuții este ilustrarea identității sociale a comunității migrante. În centrul lucrării se află descrierea procesului cultural și integrării lingvistice prin observarea dezvoltării a noi identități hibride.
