The history of travel has long been constructed and described almost exclusively as a history of "European", male mobility, without, however, explicitly making the gender and whiteness of the travellers a topic. The anthology takes this as an occasion to focus on journeys to Europe that gave "non-Europeans" the opportunity to glance at "Europe" and to draw a picture of it by themselves. So far, little attention has been paid to the questions with which attributes these travellers endowed "Europe" and its people, which similarities and differences they observed and which idea(s) of "Europe" they produced. The focus is once again on "Europe", but not as the starting point for conquests or journeys. From a postcolonial and gender historical view, the anthology's contributions rather juxtapose (self-)representations of "Europe" with perspectives that move in a field of tension between agreement, contradiction and oscillation.
Children and youth belong to one of the most vulnerable groups in societies. This was the case even before the current humanitarian crises around the world which led millions of people and families to flee from wars, terror, poverty and exploitation. Minors have been denied human rights such as access to education, food and health services. They have been kidnapped, sold, manipulated, mutilated, killed, and injured. This has been and continues to be the case in both developed and developing countries, and it does not look as if the situation will improve in the near future. Rather, current geopolitical developments, political and economic uncertainties and instabilities seem to be increasing the vulnerability of minors, especially in the wars and armed conflicts currently being waged not only in Europe, but on almost every continent. How can risks children and youth are exposed to in times of transition be reduced? Which role do state agencies, non-governmental organisations, as well as children’s coping strategies play in mitigating the vulnerabilities of minors? This volume addresses risks to which children and young people are exposed, especially in times of transition. The focus is on different groups of children in the European wartime and post-war societies of the Second World War, 'occupation children' in Germany, teenage National Socialist collaborators in Norway, and more recent cases such as child soldiers, refugee children, and children of European “Islamic State” fighters. The contributions come from international scholars and different academic disciplines (educational and social sciences, humanities, law, and international peace and conflict studies) and are based on historical, quantitative, and/or qualitative analyses.
In diesem ersten Band der Reihe Revisited - Relekturen aus den Gender und Queer Studies werden die Werke Ruckkehr nach Reims und Gesellschaft als Urteil von Didier Eribon als Ausgangspunkt fur Diskussionen um soziale Ungleichheit und Bildungsprozesse genommen. Forscher*innen aus den Erziehungs- und Sozialwissenschaften, den Literatur-, Kultur- und Medienwissenschaften fuhren die Auseinandersetzung mit Eribons Texten mit unterschiedlichen theoretischen und methodischen Zugangen und fragen danach, wie sie sich zu anderen massgebenden Texten der sozialen Ungleichheits- und Bildungsforschung verhalten. Was haben die Texte Eribons hier zu bieten? Was eroeffnen sie? Was scheint zu verschwinden? Was liesse sich anders relationieren? Als inter- und transdisziplinares, kollaboratives Projekt fuhrt dieser Band Beitrage von Autor*innen zusammen, die mit geschlechterhistorischen, rassismuskritischen, de/postkolonialen, gender- und queertheoretischen sowie intersektionalen Ansatzen arbeiten und diese in unterschiedlichen Konstellationen miteinander ins Gesprach bringen. Mit Beitragen von Gudrun Hentges, Karolin Kalmbach, Elke Kleinau, Bettina Kleiner, Christian Loemke, Julia Reuter, Thomas Viola Rieske, Dirk Schulz, Andrea Seier, Vanessa E. Thompson, Stephan Trinkaus und Susanne Voelker. Alle Beitrage dieses Bandes wurden sowohl von den Herausgeber*innen als auch extern begutachtet.
