Turkish Migration Policy
TURKISH MIGRATION POLICY, edited by Ibrahim Sirkeci and Barbara Pusch, aims to shed light on changes in migration policy, determinants beneath these changes, and practical implications for movers and non-movers in Turkey. Nevertheless, one should note that Turkey has only recently faced mass immigration and the number of foreign born has more than doubled in less than five years. Such sudden change in population composition warrants policy adjustments and reviews. Policy shift from "exporting excess labour" in the 1960s and 1970s to immigrant integration today is a drastic but necessary one. Nevertheless, Turkish migration policy is still far from settled as several chapters in this book point out. Despite the exemplary humanitarian engagement in admitting Syrians, Turkey is still at the bottom of the league table of favourable integration policies with an overall score of 25 out of 100. Turkish migration policy is likely to be adjusted further in response to the continuing immigration.

Work in Transition
Work in Transition shows how migrants develop their cultural capital in order to enter the workforce, as well as how failure to leverage that capital can lead to permanent exclusion from professional positions.
Migration and Social Pathways
The landscape of European migration has changed considerably over the past decades, in particular after the fall of the iron curtain and again after the EU enlargement to the east. The author researches the phenomenon of highly qualified migration using the example of migration between the Czech Republic and Germany. The book reveals diverse strategies migrants use to respond to the possible de-valuation of their qualification, e.g. by making use of their language skills, starting new studies or using transnational knowledge.
Beyond Methodological Nationalism
Cross-border studies have become attractive for a number of fields, including international migration, studies of material and cultural globalization, and history. While cross-border studies have expanded, the critique on nation-centered research lens has also grown. This book revisits drawbacks of methodological nationalism in theory and methodological strategies. It summarizes research methodologies of the current studies on transnationalization and globalization, such as multi-scalar and transnational approaches, global and multi-sited ethnography, as well as the entangled history approach and the incorporating comparison approach. This collected volume goes beyond rhetorical criticism on methodological nationalism, which is mainly associated with the ignorance and naturalization of national categories. It proffers insights for the systematic implementation of novel research strategies within empirical studies deployed by young and senior scholars. The novelty lies in an interdisciplinary lens ranging from sociology, social anthropology and history.
Kulturelles Kapital in der Migration
Für Wissensgesellschaften, die vom Aufbau und der Verwertung kulturellen Kapitals abhängen, kann die Arbeitsmarktintegration von hochqualifizierten Migrant(inn)en eine Chance sein. Der vorliegende Band befasst sich mit verschiedenen Migrantengruppen, die ihre akademischen Bildungstitel in die Arbeitsmärkte von Deutschland, Kanada, Türkei und Großbritannien einbringen. Er rekonstruiert mit qualitativen Methoden die Bildungs- und Berufserfolge der Kinder von Migranten ebenso wie die Chancen und Risiken, mit denen Akademiker/innen konfrontiert sind, die z.B. aufgrund von Partnerschaften, Jobangeboten oder als Flüchtlinge in ein Land kommen. Die An- und Aberkennung von kulturellem Kapital, die Erfahrung von Diskriminierung, aber auch von sozialer Unterstützung gehen in den Lebensgeschichten der Migrant(inn)en komplexe Verbindungen ein, die über ihre erfolgreiche Arbeitsmarktintegration entscheiden.

Encyclopedia of Women & Islamic Cultures
Focuses on women and the civilizations and societies in which Islam has played a historic role. Surveys all facets of life (society, economy, politics, religion, the arts, popular culture, sports, health, science, medicine, environment, and so forth) of women in these societies.
The Headscarf as a Business Card
In her book, Juliane Kanitz not only examines the frequently asked question of why Muslim women wear a headscarf, but also concentrates on how it is worn. She is concerned with the cultural, aesthetic and fashionable preferences of women and not primarily with the religious motives that are otherwise often the focus of attention. In addition to a contribution to research on the Muslim headscarf, the author presents theoretical and empirical supplements to Islamic fashion and Islam in Germany as a whole. She also discusses the debate on Europeanization, in which arguments against Muslims are put forward, and develops some perspectives on the topic of the headscarf in Germany that have not yet been taken into account, made possible by the new perspective of fashion.
