Working with Young People
"It is common to refer to the dynamism and vitality of young people as a source of change, creation, and innovation, but they are often also considered a problem that we do not know how to respond to. Young people can make adults feel uncomfortable because they are neither children who can be told what to do nor adults to be treated as equals. From the perspective of adults, their status is socially and culturally ambiguous"--
Praying the Word
Scripture brings the Word of God to us when we read and welcome it in faith as the Word which comes from God and leads to God. Scripture is the means by which we live in God. The ancient monastic (and patristic) way of reading Scripture involves reflection (meditation) and prayer. It is listening to the Word, allowing the Word to become active in our lives.

Contemporary Boat Migration
This book explores contemporary migration by boat through the intertwined, and under-explored, elements of empirical data, governance and geopolitics, and discourses.

Grenzen der Gastfreundschaft

Deutlich wird, dass Mobilität, die Deklaration des permanenten Ausnahmezustands und die Migrationsindustrie einen transnationalen politischen Raum schaffen, in dem sich Interessen, Dissens und Partizipation artikulieren. An der Schnittstelle zwischen Anthropologie und Kulturwissenschaft verbindet die Studie langjährige Feldforschung und dichte Beschreibung mit jüngsten Diskussionen um Gastfreundschaft und plädiert für einen lokalisierten Kosmopolitismus.
