Militarization and Democracy in West Germany's Border Police, 1951-2005
"A social history of West Germany's Bundesgrenzschutz (BGS, Federal Border Police) that complicates the telling of the country's history as a straightforward success story. The 2020 murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officers shows that police violence is still a problem in Western democracies. Floyd's murder prompted some critics to hail the German police as a model of democratic policing that should be emulated. After 1945, Germany's police forces had supposedly shed the militarization and authoritarian impulses still prevalent in other nations' forces. These uncritical appraisals, however, deserve closer analysis. This book is a social history of West Germany's Bundesgrenzschutz...

Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: Zum Frauentag, dem 08.03.2008, erschien in der Märkischen Zeitung ein Artikel mit dem Titel ‘Wir setzen uns selbst unter Druck’.

Polizei, Gewalt und Staat im 20. Jahrhundert
Die Polizei repräsentiert wie kaum eine andere Institution das staatliche Gewaltmonopol. Doch was ist damit konkret gemeint? Die historische Erkundung zeigt, dass auch in der neuesten Zeit „Polizei“, „Gewaltmonopol“ und „Staat“ sehr unterschiedlich verstanden werden. Entscheidend für das Profil staatlicher Autorität und Durchsetzungsmacht sind dabei weniger abstrakte Strukturen und gesichtslose Apparate, als die sozialen Praktiken der Akteure: der Polizei, anderer Institutionen, aber auch des Publikums. Umstritten bleiben zumal die Formen der Androhung und des Einsatzes polizeilicher Gewalt. Die Beiträge des Bandes widmen sich in exemplarischen Fallstudien unterschiedlichen Praktiken wie Deutungen des Polizierens im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert.
Sonntags 20:15 Uhr – »Tatort«
Watching television plays an important role in our daily lives. Especially serial narratives like the popular German police procedural Tatort (FRG, since 1970) bear great potential to catch and keep their viewer’s interest. Analysing the integration of the long running TV series Tatort into its viewers’ weekly routines, this study investigates movements in the realm of what is called ‘social positioning’. In online fora, in discussions or while watching the latest episode, television audiences share their impressions. They compare inspectors and crime sites and express their views upon socio-political debates. At the same time watching series for many is a deeply social activity. The...

Hidden Multilingualism in 19th-Century European Literature
The disparagement of multilingualism is a European development of the 18th and 19th centuries in which one national language and national literature were advocated, established and institutionalised. Multilingual writers made use of the creative potential of several languages even then. However, they often adapted to an increasingly monolingual book market, which made their individual multilingualism invisible. This is evident in literary historiography which established a monolingual national canon. Researching hidden multilingualism is often difficult: since multilingual texts by multilingual writers were often not published or were published in a monolingual version, sources are scarce. L...
