Emigration (1938–1939)
2019
In der sogenannten Reichspogromnacht vom 9./10. November 1938 wurde in Aachen, wie in vielen anderen deutschen Stadten auch, die Synagoge niedergebrannt, Geschafte wurden geplundert, und uber 70 Aachener Burger wurden verhaftet und in die Konzentrationslager Buchenwald und Sachsenhausen verschleppt. Unter ihnen war auch ein Sohn von Ludwig Hopf, der sich fur seinen Vater ausgegeben hatte (Muller-Arends 1995, 213). Otto Blumenthal blieb unbehelligt.
Overview of Nordic media research on immigration and ethnic relations : from text analysis to the study of production, use and reception
2008
AbstractNordic media and communication research had reacted to the ethnically/racially and culturally changing societies since the 1980s, and the multidisciplinary field of migration, ethnic relations and the media has been shaped. This overview draws upon existing body of research, particularly on recent literature since the early 2000s, and aims to sketch out the rough lines of Nordic media research by mapping and comparing developments in this area. In addition, it points out some major outcomes and, finally, suggests future developments. The longest line of research is based on text analysis, mostly quantitative and qualitative content analysis and discourse analysis of majority media’s…
Data from: Spatio-temporal dynamics of density-dependent dispersal during a population colonisation
2019
Predicting population colonisations requires understanding how spatio-temporal changes in density affect dispersal. Density can inform on fitness prospects, acting as a cue for either habitat quality, or competition over resources. However, when escaping competition, high local density should only increase emigration if lower-density patches are available elsewhere. Few empirical studies on dispersal have considered the effects of density at the local and landscape scale simultaneously. To explore this, we analyze 5 years of individual-based data from an experimental introduction of wild guppies Poecilia reticulata. Natal dispersal showed a decrease in local density dependence as density at…
Proceso migratorio, condiciones laborales y salud en trabajadores inmigrantes en España (proyecto ITSAL)
2009
Objetivo: Describir el proceso migratorio (razones para emigrar, tiempo de residencia), la situación legal y las características personales, laborales y de salud de los inmigrantes con experiencia de trabajo en España. Métodos: Estudio transversal sobre una muestra estratificada por país de origen (Colombia, Ecuador, Marruecos y Rumanía), situación legal y sexo. Entrevista a 2434 trabajadores (57,4% varones). Se analiza la información sobre el proceso migratorio, las condiciones laborales, la situación de salud y las expectativas de vida y trabajo. Comparación de frecuencias por país de origen. Resultados: El 90% eran <45 años, principalmente con formación secundaria (51%). La mayoría emigr…
Absence of the lactase-persistence-associated allele in early Neolithic Europeans.
2007
Lactase persistence (LP), the dominant Mendelian trait conferring the ability to digest the milk sugar lactose in adults, has risen to high frequency in central and northern Europeans in the last 20,000 years. This trait is likely to have conferred a selective advantage in individuals who consume appreciable amounts of unfermented milk. Some have argued for the “culture-historical hypothesis,” whereby LP alleles were rare until the advent of dairying early in the Neolithic but then rose rapidly in frequency under natural selection. Others favor the “reverse cause hypothesis,” whereby dairying was adopted in populations with preadaptive high LP allele frequencies. Analysis based on the cons…
Ludność Górnego Śląska w latach 1950–1989 w świetle wybranych polskich i niemieckich materiałów źródłowych (opracowanie analityczne)
2017
Artykuł jest próbą nakreślenia obrazu ludności Górnego Śląska w latach 1950–1989, jaki udało się odtworzyć na podstawie wybranych materiałów źródłowych, pochodzących z polskich i niemieckich archiwów. Uwaga opracowania skupiona jest przy tym na problemie różnic w postrzeganiu ludności Górnego Śląska przez polskie i niemieckie władze (Republiki Federalnej Niemiec). Źródłem tych różnic był fakt, że oba kraje zarówno w kwestii postrzegania, jak i kreowania polityki na rzecz ludności Górnego Śląska w sposób marginalny uwzględniały znaczenie specyfiki polsko- -niemieckiego pogranicza kulturowego i jego wpływu na tożsamościowy rys jego mieszkańców. W ten sposób rodził się problem swoistej rywaliz…
Freedom, Civility and Activeness. On the government of leisure self-formation of Finnish multicultural youth
2012
This article explores the leisure time and civic activities of ‘multicultural youth’ in Finland. The theoretic-conceptual framework is the Foucauldian governmentality approach and Foucault's four step model of the ethical self-formation of the moral subject. This toolkit exposes how the subjectivation of the multicultural youth takes place in their leisure time activities and civic action, and connects and disconnects with the desires and expectations of administration and youth workers. The leisure time subjectivation of the youth implements on the interface of their own ‘self-driven’ activities and interests and more or less programmatic governance of official youth work with its integrat…

O nowy kształt Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej. Z dziejów myśli geopolitycznej Ligi Niepodległości Polski po II wojnie światowej
2020
The Polish Independence League established at the end of 1944 became the political representation of Piłsudski’s adherents in exile. The head office of the PIL was in London, where Piłsudski’s adherents published a bulletin ‘Listy z Londynu’ (Letters from London), and then a magazine ‘Za Wolność i Niepodległość’ (For Freedom and Independence) published irregularly, in which they promoted their political concepts. The establishment of a regional union of states (federation) in Central and Eastem Europę after World War II occupied a prominent place in the political thought of the Marshall’s heirs. They were in favour of political, military and economic integration of the countries in this par…
“LATVIA WILL ALWAYS BE MY HOME”: LATVIAN EMIGRANTS IN SWEDEN AFTER 1991 IN THE LATVIAN NATIONAL ORAL HISTORY COLLECTION
2020
Latvians are one of the most mobile European nations. Latvian migration to Sweden has a long history. After the II World War, more than 4,000 people moved from Latvia to Sweden, fleeing Soviet power. The second wave of immigration to Sweden began with the restoration of Latvian independence in 1991 and continues to this day. Both of these waves of migration are documented in the Latvian National Oral History collection. This article analyzes life-story interviews with expatriates in Sweden after the restoration of independence and explores how the migrants themselves describe their experiences in their new home country, their reflections on Latvians, Latvianness, and the preservation of nat…
