»Über den Völkermord hinaus: Wie das Handeln von Flüchtlingen Wissen bewahrt«. Genocide targets lives and also aims to destroy cultures. Hence, refugees do not only save their bare lives, as the common notion of a refugee in need of individual protection assumes; they also engage in various collective practices to safeguard their cultural heritage from destruction. As an expression of self-consciousness against genocidal violence, this process of rescue becomes a part of that very cultural heritage and thus fundamentally alters its meaning. To develop a better understanding of this complex process, this article first develops general thoughts on refugee agency and cultural survival. Secondly, to exemplify the variety of such efforts and their cultural meaning, this article examines how European Jews, and particularly the General Jewish Labor Bund, attempted to save Yiddish culture and material collections on the secular history of European Jews during the 20th century. In conclusion, it argues that in addition to the individualized perception of a refugee, we need to consider collective cultural rescue as an integral part of refugee politics.
»Über den Völkermord hinaus: Wie das Handeln von fl chtlingen Wissen bewahrt»。种族灭绝以生命为目标，也旨在摧毁文化。因此，难民不仅像需要个人保护的难民这一普遍概念所假定的那样挽救了他们的生命;他们还采取各种集体行动，保护自己的文化遗产免遭破坏。作为一种反对种族灭绝暴力的自我意识的表达，这一救援过程成为该文化遗产的一部分，从而从根本上改变了其意义。为了更好地理解这一复杂的过程，本文首先对难民机构和文化生存进行了总体思考。其次，为了举例说明这种努力的多样性及其文化意义，本文考察了欧洲犹太人，特别是犹太劳工联盟，如何在20世纪试图保存意第绪文化和有关欧洲犹太人世俗历史的材料收藏。综上所述，本文认为，除了对难民的个性化感知外，我们还需要将集体文化救援视为难民政治的一个组成部分。

»Die Re-Figuration des Raums und die refigurierte Moderne Konzepte und Diagnosen«. In this essay we want to make a contribution to developing further the spatial research in social theory by looking at spatial processes of change and the tensions involved conceptually and diagnostically as refiguration of spaces. Starting from an outline of the key concept “refiguration,” we go on to argue that re-figuration is not just a general concept adapted to spaces, but a fundamental spatio-temporal concept. In a third and fourth part we will address relations between spatial figures and introduce empirically sensitizing hypotheses on mediatization, translocalization, and polycontexturalization in order to show tendencies in the dynamics of change. We will speak of “re-figuration” to refer to various socio-historical processes of spatial change, while “refigured modernity” refers to the diagnosis of the increasing tension between different dominant social figuration as the reason for the current re-figuration which will be outlined on the basis of recent research.

»Die militärischen Ursprünge der Arbeitsschutzgesetzgebung im deutschen Kaiserreich«. Prussia, and since its founding in 1871 the German Empire, were pioneers in the introduction of general conscription and one of the largest military powers in Europe. At the same time, the German Empire was seen as a pioneer in public social policy. Using the example of labor protection, this article examines whether and to what extent connections existed between general conscription, power ambitions of governments, and social protection. It seeks to determine what role military reasons played in the expansion of German labor protection by analyzing the military’s influence on legislation between the early 19th century and the end of the First World War. This examination will show that military arguments have gained great importance over time but have never, with the exception of the First World War, been the dominant motive for welfare reform.
»Die militärischen urspr nge der Arbeitsschutzgesetzgebung im deutschen Kaiserreich»。普鲁士和德意志帝国自1871年成立以来，一直是实行全面征兵制的先驱，也是欧洲最大的军事强国之一。与此同时，德意志帝国被视为公共社会政策的先驱。本文以劳动保护为例，考察了普遍征兵、政府权力野心和社会保护之间是否存在联系，以及在多大程度上存在联系。它试图通过分析19世纪初至第一次世界大战结束期间军事对立法的影响，确定军事原因在德国劳工保护的扩大中发挥了什么作用。这项研究将表明，随着时间的推移，军事争论变得越来越重要，但除了第一次世界大战之外，从来没有成为福利改革的主要动机。

This paper examines how Impact Investment (II) becomes part and transforms structured accumulation regimes and circuits, with a particular emphasis on South Africa's agricultural sector. Through the joint implementation of a macro study of the South African II circuits, and a micro study of a particular II fund's practices and impacts, the paper develops an in-depth political economy assessment of II circuits in order to historicize these circuits, to map the South African II community, and to characterize the power balances presently structuring it. Rather than highlighting ruptures, it draws the attention to the historical continuities and path-dependencies as II related tools are rooted into older financial practices, shaping today's II development and practice - hence questioning II as a tool for empowerment.

This paper explores the role of knowledge, standards, and metrics in global health. Our point of departure is the observation that the emergence of ‘global health’ as a domain of research, policy, and practice in the last three decades or so has coincided with an increased interest in the validation and use of measures of health, such as the Disability Adjusted Life Year (DALY), in monitoring and assessing health equity across territories and populations. This ‘elective affinity’ between global health and health metrics has become the focus of scholarly debate in the social sciences. In this paper, we seek to contextualise and critically discuss the different positions in this debate. We suggest that emplacing health metrics within the neo-liberal logic of health production –one where the ‘mechanisms of life’ are aligned with the maximisation of economic productivity- does not fully capture the interactive relationship between health measurement and the politics of health. Instead, we argue that this relationship has been characterised by controversy and uncertainty about how to interlock normative ideals and approaches to knowledge-making about health.
