This paper examines the influence of Heiner Müller on Yoko Tawada’s work. Tawada submitted her master’s thesis „Eine Lesereise (mit) der Hamletmaschine“ on Müller’s „Hamletmaschine“ (1977) to the University of Hamburg in 1991. Müller’s „Hamletmaschine“ was interpreted until now as a gesture of despair that emerged from the East German government’s justice and the ideals of challenging the socialist state in postwar Germany. However, Tawada’s dissertation is entirely different in nature from those that measure their political influence in literature. Instead, Tawada demonstrates how „Hamletmaschine,“ as a post-modern literary text, bypasses historical value judgments based on its textual structure. At that time, Tawada pays particular attention to the problem of words and images in „Hamletmaschine“. Also, as an antithesis to this word, attention is directed to the problem of the non-visible (Nicht-Sehen), which reverts to the image instilling physicality. Further, the problem of reversion to this image appears to be an element that Tawada was greatly influenced by in her subsequent creations. This paper analyzes this effect from three corresponding keywords: machine, myth, and gender. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The new psychotherapists' law in Germany requires that future studies in psychotherapy enable students to evaluate the evidence base of psychotherapeutic methods based on established criteria. This article summarizes and applies the most important national and international criteria for evaluating the evidence base of psychodynamic psychotherapy including the criteria detailed in the Methods Paper of the Scientific Advisory Board Psychotherapy in Germany, the internationally influential criteria by Chambless et al. (1998) as well as the most recent criteria by Tolin et al. (2015). Criticism of the criteria for evidence assessment (e.g., the disorder-specific approach), current controversies (e.g., concerning the evidence base of long-term psychodynamic therapy and analytic psychotherapy, integrative psychotherapy frameworks versus specific treatment approaches), and the relevance of the participation of practicing psychodynamic psychotherapists in research projects are addressed. For the adequate assessment of the efficacy/effectiveness of psychodynamic psychotherapy, especially long-term psychodynamic therapy and analytic psychotherapy, it is necessary to include longer follow-up periods and also to assess changes in accordance with psychodynamic assumptions about therapeutic change processes.

Stereotypes, prejudices, hostile images and clichés are different forms of self-images and images of others. This paper establishes stereotypes as a scalable concept to distinguish them from other forms of fixed attributions. It features a comparison of national stereotypes about Germany, the Germans and the German language from a Dutch and Russian perspective and discusses the use of stereotypes in foreign language teaching, which are aimed at culturally reflective learning.

The present paper examines the impact of the COVID 19-pandemic on school exchanges between Germany and France. Furthermore, it investigates teachers’ and students’ experiences with distance learning during this period. We highlight that the pandemic has generated many exceptional challenges, especially for vulnerable students. However, the pandemic-induced constraints have also stimulated the development of new didactic approaches, tools and methods. Therefore, we can speak about the new opportunities in the domain of education, and most precisely, for school exchanges. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Über das letzte Jahrzehnt hat die politische Mobilisierung von Rechts in Deutschland und Europa zugenommen. Insbesondere die Migrationsbewegungen seit 2015 waren für Netzwerke wie Pegida Anlass auf die Straße zu gehen. Auf der anderen Seite haben sich diverse zivilgesellschaftliche Akteure von antifaschistischen Gruppen über Gewerkschaften bis hin zu Kirchen organisiert, um in Form von Gegendemonstrationen ein Zeichen gegen Rechts und für Weltoffenheit zu setzen. Diese Mobilisierungsdynamiken von Protest und Gegenprotest fanden im Zuge der Konflikte um staatliche Maßnahmen zur Eindämmung der Corona-Pandemie ihre Fortsetzung. Proteste und Gegenproteste können zum einen Ausdruck einer bestehenden Polarisierung der Gesellschaft sein und bergen zum anderen das Risiko einer weiteren Polarisierung auf der Straße. Am Beispiel der Interaktion zwischen Pegida und der NoPegida-Bewegung diskutiert dieser Beitrag die möglichen Folgen von Gegenmobilisierung. Die Analysen legen nahe, dass Gegenproteste nicht zu einer Demobilisierung der Gegenseite führen. Nichtsdestotrotz können sie einen Positionierungsdruck auf politische Entscheidungsträger*innen ausüben, mediale Aufmerksamkeit für gesellschaftliche Konflikte generieren und die Vernetzung progressiver zivilgesellschaftlicher Akteure fördern. Over the last decade, mobilization from the far-right has increased in Germany and Europe. In particular, the migration flows since 2015 sparked street protests by movements like Pegida. Nevertheless, diverse civil society coalitions, including actors from anti-fascist groups, trade unions, and churches, have taken to the streets to counter far-right mobilization. These mobilization dynamics continue during protests for and against government measures to contain the Covid-19 pandemic. On the one hand, protests and counterprotests can indicate increasing polarization of society and, on the other hand, they carry the risk of further polarization on the streets. Using the interaction between Pegida and the NoPegida movement as an example, this paper examines the potential consequences of counterprotests. The analyses suggest that countermobilization is unlikely to lead to demobilization of the opposing side. Nevertheless, it can force politicians and decision-makers to take a stand, generate media attention for existing societal conflicts, and facilitate networking among progressive civil society actors.

Der Aufsatz diskutiert die Rolle von Massenmedien und sozialen Medien für die politische Polarisierung in Deutschland. Dafür schlagen wir eine theoretisch-konzeptionelle Systematisierung vor, die eine Dimensionierung entlang der Mikro-, Meso- und Makro-Ebene mit der Differenzierung von themen- und gruppenspezifischer Polarisierung verbindet. Besonders auffällig ist die Leerstelle auf der Meso-Ebene. Die Mikro-Ebene ist besser abgedeckt, hier deutet sich ein Einfluss meinungskonformer Mediennutzung auf die Polarisierung an. Auf der Makro-Ebene dominiert die Forschung zur Parteiensystem-Polarisierung, bei der ein Medieneinfluss bisher jedoch nicht nachgewiesen werden konnte. Zukünftige Forschung auf der Mikro-Ebene sollte stärker die Wirkung konkreter Medieninhalte fokussieren, die einer Polarisierung entgegenwirken können. Auf der Meso-Ebene gilt es, zunächst zu explorieren, inwiefern Polarisierung hier zu Dysfunktionen beitragen kann. Auf der Makro-Ebene bedarf es eines international vergleichenden Vorgehens, wenn Medieneinflüsse auf Systemmerkmale in den Blick genommen werden sollen. This paper discusses the role of mass media and social media for political polarization in Germany. For this purpose, we propose a theoretical-conceptual systematization that combines dimensioning along the micro-, meso- and macro-levels with the differentiation of attitude and affective polarization. The blank space at the meso level is particularly striking. The micro level is better covered, suggesting here an influence of the exposure to like-minded messages on polarization. The macro level is dominated by research on party system polarization, but a media influence has not yet been demonstrated. Future research at the micro level should focus more on the effect of specific media content that can counteract polarization. At the meso level, it is important to explore the extent to which polarization can contribute to dysfunctions here. At the macro level, an international comparative approach is needed if media influences on system characteristics are to be considered. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Vor dreißig Jahren veröffentlichte Gerhard Schulze die Theorie der Erlebnisgesellschaft, der zufolge die Menschen in wohlhabenden Ländern zunehmend nach Erlebnissen streben, um ihr Projekt des schönen Lebens zu gestalten. Angesichts neuerer Gegenwartsdiagnosen, die insgesamt ein sehr krisenhaftes Bild der Spätmoderne zeichnen, erscheint diese Idee heute eigentümlich aus der Zeit gefallen. Vor diesem Hintergrund erörtern wir in diesem Beitrag zwei Fragen. Die erste, vor allem auf die zurückliegenden Jahre gerichtete Frage ist, ob der Erlebnisgesellschaft mit ihrer starken Innenorientierung tatsächlich nur eine kurze Blütezeit beschieden war und inzwischen die Außenorientierung der kompetitiven Gesellschaft wieder an Bedeutung gewonnen hat – oder ob sich die Erlebnisgesellschaft, gewissermaßen unter dem Radar des aktuellen Krisendiskurses, doch weiter entfaltet hat. Mit Daten des European Social Survey 2002–2018 für Deutschland zeigen wir, dass die Erlebnisorientierung in den letzten zwei Jahrzehnten auf hohem Niveau noch einmal zugenommen hat, während die Statusorientierung vorübergehend angestiegen war, um dann in den 2010er Jahren spürbar zurück zu gehen. Die zweite, stärker auf die kommenden Jahre gerichtete Frage ist, welche neuen existenziellen Problemdefinitionen jenseits des erfolgreichen und des schönen Lebens, die beide einer Steigerungslogik folgen, sich abzeichnen. Perspektivisch halten wir es für wahrscheinlich, dass begrenzungslogische Lebensmaximen in Gestalt des achtsamen Lebens und insbesondere des nachhaltigen Lebens wichtiger werden. Angesichts des hohen subjektiven Gratifikationspotenzials der postmodernen Konsumgesellschaft ist allerdings von einer starken Beharrungskraft der Steigerungslogik auszugehen – und damit auch der Erlebnisorientierung. Thirty years ago, Gerhard Schulze published his influential book "The Experience Society". This theory claimed that people in affluent societies increasingly strive for leading an enjoyable life, for which positive experiences are key. More recent theories, however, overwhelmingly paint a crisis-ridden picture of late modernity. Hence Schulze's theory appears rather outdated nowadays. In this context, the paper at hand raises two questions: First, with a retrospective view on Germany from the 1990s to the present, we discuss whether the experience society with its strong emphasis on experience seeking indeed has regressed to a competitive society in which status seeking regained importance – or, whether the experience society further unfolded, under the radar of the Sociologists' current crisis discourse. Using data from the European Social Survey 2002–2018, we provide evidence that the Germans' disposition for experience seeking has been at a high level throughout the time period covered (and even increased slightly), while status seeking intermediately increased, yet recently markedly decreased. Second, with a view ahead we discuss which life maxims other than the successful life and the enjoyable life—which both involve the idea that more is better and thus follow a logic of increase—are emerging. Life maxims such as living mindfully and, especially, living sustainably will presumably become more important, driven by the public discussion about climate change and sustainability policies. The common denominator of these emerging life maxims is the idea that less is more, following a logic of limitation. Considering the high subjective gratification potential of postmodern consumer society, however, a strong persistence of the logic of increase can be assumed – many people will continue to seek for pleasant experiences.

Sensory Spaces in Emergencies. Sense Perception and Space Usage in Early Modern Town Fires. Fire was an omnipresent element of premodern daily life, yet also an existential threat for urban communities. Drawing on a wide range of sources from contemporary eyewitness accounts to urban regulations from early modern Germany, this paper analyses town fires as multisensory events. It argues that urban dwellers' senses were used to monitor the city space for potential outbreaks, alert the population to a fire, and move within a burning city. In connection with this, it discusses in which way urban spaces were constituted differently in an emergency situation. The contribution shows how positioning and movement shaped sensory perception and how perception, in turn, influenced the ways people perceived and used space. Town fires were not simply a time of disorder and sensory overload but situations when sensory and spatial ordering was tested and negotiated within political and social hierarchies.

Ice Cream and Automobile Horns. Sensory Knowledge and Practices in Urban Spaces (1900-1930). This contribution examines the senses of taste and hearing in relation to space in Germany between 1900 and 1930. It considers the consumption of ice cream in public space an activity that com prises a potential reorganization of a spatial order. In this respect, it builds upon Henri Lefebvre's concept of space. The paper explores the scientific design of automobile horns and its impact on pedestrians and road users during the 1920s and early 1930s, connecting it with notions of space. Thus it provides insights into the formation of expert knowledge of how the phonotope of urban traffic as a spatial context and the impact of noise is imagined, organized, disciplined, and appropriated.

The article describes the development of the tourism management and organizational structure in the Sudetenland. At first, the development is briefly outlined from the beginning of the Habsburg monarchy, when locally operating so-called foreign associations (Fremdenverkehrsverein) began to arise, then through the period of interwar Czechoslovakia, which retained the current federal structure, until the Sudetenland joined Nazi Germany. The main core of the article is the transformation in tourism management after the annexation of the Sudetenland by Germany. Paper describes dissettlement of the existing associations as well as the introduction of the tourism management structure based on the German model. Also, particular specifics of individual areas are pointed out. The Sudetenland was to some extent exceptional in its interconnectedness with the Czech lands, but at the same time it was oriented towards Reich tourists. The paper is based mainly on archive sources stored in the Czech, Moravian, Austrian and German archives additionally supported by periodical literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It is the purpose of this paper to review the research literature on Russian language learning and teaching published in Germany between 2008 and 2018. These studies include research in multilingualism, teacher education, subjective theories and aspects of heritage language education. The review shows that research in Russian language teaching rests on the shoulders of only a few researchers. As a natural consequence, many interesting research topics in the field such as intercultural learning, teaching of literature and content and language integrated learning, remain unexplored. In addition to sketching avenues for future research, the paper recommends closer cooperation with researchers working on different target languages and from neighbouring fields of research.

In the study presented in this paper the use of a specific linguistic non-standard feature of German by 100 speakers representing three generations was analysed. The speakers originate from 25 different locations within the Middle Franconian dialect formation covering the middle-western parts of Germany. The feature analysed is the realisation of the Standard German phoneme /r/ as a voiceless velar or uvular fricative [x, χ] when following a short vowel and preceding a coronal obstruent. The comparison of how frequently the speakers use [χ] in different communicative contexts results in the observation of three types of speakers (i. e., [χ] users): The first type are dialect speakers mostly of the older generation (60 years and above) who use the variant in a traditional manner, namely when aiming at producing their best way to pronounce Standard German. According to these speakers [χ] forms part of the Standard German pronunciation norm. The second type is mainly represented by middle aged speakers (45-55 years) who use the feature in nearly all communicative contexts except when they have a dialect competency and are asked to produce their "strongest dialect". Finally, the third type of speakers are mainly young people (17-23 years) who do not have any dialect competence. These speakers only use [χ] when they are asked to produce their "strongest dialect" and/or when they are talking to friends. On the basis of these results it is argued that, between these types of speakers and the generations they represent, a re-evaluation of the feature has taken place that may be classified as enregisterment, because speakers of the third type seem to use [χ] indexically in order to signal familiarity with their interlocutors on a interpersonal-social level.
