    Until the 1970s, only 1000 Vietnamese lived in West and East Germany, most of them international students. West Germany, in particular, had not yet been confronted with non-European refugees. This changed after 1978 with the influx of around 35,000 "boat people" from Viet Nam and other countries in South East Asia, who arrived as part of a contingent quota admission. Their entry led to new strategies for integration, including obligatory language classes and a host of measures resembling those in other countries of refugee resettlement. Yet, the German case differs from other countries because of the simultaneous arrival of non-refugee Vietnamese, who came on temporary labour contracts to socialist East Germany starting in 1980. These two migration streams would converge when Germany reunified in 1990. Drawing on mixed qualitative methods, this paper offers a strategic case for understanding factors that shaped the arrival and resettlement experiences of Vietnamese refugees and contract workers in Germany. By comparing two migration streams from the same country of origin that experienced varied contexts of reception (government, labour market, and ethnic community), we suggest that a context of reception need not be uniformly positive for immigrants and refugees to have an integration experience deemed successful.

    Tattoos erzählen Geschichten – und das nicht nur auf individueller, sondern auch auf kollektiver Ebene. Basierend auf qualitativen Interviews mit tätowierten Personen untersucht diese Studie die Bedeutung von Tätowierungen in unserer heutigen Gesellschaft und zeigt, wie sich das Tattoo-Phänomen seit den 1990er Jahren gewandelt hat. Dabei wird deutlich, dass Tattoos nicht nur höchstpersönliche Bedeutungsträger sind, sondern auch Träger kollektiver Bedeutungen: Eine faszinierende Reise in die Welt der gezeichneten Häute unserer Zeit.Tattoos tell stories - not only on an individual level, but also on a collective level. Based on qualitative interviews with tattooed individuals, this study explores the meaning of tattoos in today's society and show how the tattoo phenomenon has changed since the 1990s. In the process, it becomes clear that tattoos are not only highly personal bearers of meaning, but also bearers of collective meanings: A fascinating journey into the world of drawn skins of our time.

    Abstract: In Europe alone, more than 120,000 children and 150,000 adolescents are diagnosed with cancer every year. Thanks to treatment innovations the survival rates of young patients' cancer increase substantially every year, but improved prognoses are in many cases linked to longer treatments. To cope with the social, emotional, and developmental challenges associated with cancer, play and playful activities are widely recognized as fundamental for adolescents and children. This article presents the results of an exploratory study conducted to better understand the role of free digital play for young cancer patients (0-17 years). Methodology: 15 semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted, divided into two groups. The first group consisted of four experts and the second group consisted of 11 parents of young cancer patients. Conversations with the participants revolved around children’s use of digital platforms during cancer treatment, emphasizing their motivations to play digit

    Abstract: Dieser Beitrag fragt nach der Bedeutung einer männlich verfassten kulturellen Wissensordnung im Feld der Technik für die Subjektansprüche und (An-)Erkennung von Ingenieurinnen. Auf Basis qualitativer Interviews mit Ingenieurinnen, die als Führungskräfte im deutschsprachigen Bereich erneuerbarer Energien tätig sind, wird gezeigt, wie diese ihr Berufsfeld (vordergründig) als ein geschlechtergerechtes beschreiben, zugleich aber Marginalisierungserfahrungen qua Geschlecht thematisieren. Diese von den Interviewten unaufgelöst bleibende Disparität in der diskursiven Praxis wird als Effekt von symbolischer Gewalt als auch von spezifischen Aussageregelungen im technischen Feld interpretiert. Ziel ist es, besser zu verstehen, wie Ingenieurinnen als prekäre Subjekte hervorgebracht und die Teilhabechancen von Männern und Frauen im Ingenieurberuf auf der symbolischen Ebene kultureller Wissensordnungen reguliert werden

    Economic theory suggests that when a primary earner within a couple loses their job, one potential response is for the secondary earner to seek additional paid work to bolster their household finances. Yet, the empirical quantitative evidence regarding any such 'added worker effect' is mixed. To investigate why this might be, we explore the processes behind household responses to job loss through qualitative interviewing techniques. The findings indicate that the use of additional spousal labour is only one response of many alternatives and typically only invoked in cases of serious financial hardship.
