The Good, Bad, and Challenging Migrant
In post-migrant societies, belonging, identity and transnationality go far beyond inclusion and exclusion. Intersecting elements behind circulating conflicts and political narratives shape »the good, bad and challenging migrant«. Fatma Haron scrutinizes the impact of social remittances on the transnational identification process between new Tyrol and new Turkey. The empirical data is gathered through ethnographic fieldwork and semi structured narrative interviews analyzing the social, political, and cultural influence on identification processes between Turkey and Tyrol.

Survive
'Jerry, I read through your book and was bowled over by its breadth and depth, and by the scholarship in it, and by the clarity and fluency in your writing. Excellent!' Rick Hanson Ph.D., New York Times bestselling author of Buddha’s Brain, and UC Berkeley psychology professor Although the concept of survival is evident in a biological sense, it expands far beyond simple physical survival for the human being. The questions of psychological, emotional, intellectual and spiritual survival, as well as the overriding question of identity all play a role. Who is the ‘me' that is fighting to survive? That is the existential question we struggle consciously or unconsciously to address.

TEL AVIV STORIES
Die Tel Aviv Stories sind Bilder und Texte, in denen Menschen auftreten, wie man ihnen im Bubble Tel Aviv begegnet und begegnen könnte - in der Stadt am Meer, wo die Absurditäten einer zwischen der Sehnsucht nach einem 'normalen' Leben und von vielen Auseinandersetzungen und Kriegen zerrissenen Gesellschaft besonders deutlich sichtbar werden. Im Fokus der kurzen Prosatexte stehen aber nicht die bewaffneten Konflikte, sondern der Blick hinter die Kulissen der Schlagzeilen, die Auswirkungen eines ständigen Kampfzustands auf das alltägliche Leben, die israelischen Generationen, die ein breites Spektrum von Shoahüberlebenden und Pionieren bis hin zu jungen Hightech-Spezialisten umfassen. Die Fotografien von Miklos Klaus Rozsa machen ein solches Tel Aviv, wie man es nicht aus den Reisebüchern kennt, sondern nur in der eigenen Begegnung entdecken kann: eine Stadt mit einem Leben jenseits des direkt Offensichtlichen und Angepriesenen, auf ihre eigene Weise sicht- und erfahrbar.
