- Kurzbeschreibung
- The research project examines the contribution of LGBTIQ* movements to societal democratization in the 20th century. The transdisciplinary project collaborates with scholars and practitioners from queer archives, theater and performance, history, political science, and theater and dance studies. Planned activities include archival collection development and digitization, transdisciplinary research, oral history collections, and innovative formats such as theater workshops, digital storytelling, and podcasts to counter LGBTIQ*-hostile narratives with historical knowledge.

- The research on the unprecedented global growth of the prison population and the theoretical suggestion of the rise of a Penal State as cause and effect of this phenomenon presents unanswered questions about the form the Penal State takes in different regions and how gender articulates the relation between it and its subjects. Two lacunas can be identified in these debates: the first one relates to the particularities of the Latin American case and how these influence the manifestations of the Penal State in different countries of the region from an empirical perspective. The second is related to the research on women’s experiences with the punitive face of the Penal State, with the prison as its main governance institution. Based on these two lacunas, the research poses the following question as a starting point: How does the penal state operate in the Mexican women’s prison and what subjects are (re)produced through the exercise of disciplinary power? It argues that the study of the mundane daily interactions of incarcerated women with the state’s disciplinary power can contribute to the development of an ethnography of the state from the margins. The research utilizes the case of the Centro de Reinserción Femenil (CRF) of Puente Grande in Jalisco, Mexico, the second biggest female confinement institution in the country. The dissertation presents the hypothesis that the disciplinary and punitive techniques used in the female prison are highly informed by gendered notions for the (re)production of ‘rehabilitated’ subjects. These notions (re)produce in the incarcerated women a subordination not only based on gender but also on the other categories with which gender intersects to create new axis of exclusion and inequality. Through ethnographic participant observation and interviews with the inmates’, the research focuses on the daily interactions of incarcerated women with the disciplinary State power in the prison. It concludes that the Penal State operates in the women’s prison through punitive techniques that rely on informality and gender meanings to achieve a discipline that solidifies state power over the bodies confined in the institution. Through the mundane interactions of incarcerated women with the state’s disciplinary power, the female prison not only governs and manages this population sector that is located a priori in advanced marginality, but it constructs that marginality in a systematic manner. This happens through the (re)production of incarcerated women as subordinated subjects in terms of gender and the categories with which gender combines to create new exclusion axis (that include class, ethnicity, educational level, sexual preference and place of origin, among others). This subordination permeates all of the inmates’ interactions with the State and its representatives and places the women in a disadvantageous and vulnerable position even in relation to their male incarcerated counterparts.

- “If a Negro boy and a white girl find things in common and desire to associate with each other, we as believers in democratic freedom should support their democratic right to do so,”[1] a reader of the African American magazine Ebony declared in his letter to the editor. His comment referred to a series of reports on the experience of African Americans soldiers stationed in West Germany. Many African Americans remembered their deployment in postwar Germany as a good time – a time, in which they felt like “equals” – a feeling they missed at home. They connected this novel feeling of “equality” with being recognized and accepted as men. It was not only their status as occupation soldier but also the contact with German civilians, which gave them a new perspective on their situation back home in the United States. Most notably intimate relationships between African American soldiers and German women evolved as central themes, and – as I shall argue – contested forms of protest and resistance in personal and collective narratives of African Americans. Understanding intimacy, sexuality, and love as both emotions and practices of attraction and affection and – in certain circumstances – as subtle forms of protest my dissertation project seeks to trace back the implications the deployment of African American troops in postwar West Germany had for the struggle against racial discrimination in the Untied States. As African Americans summarized the struggle for social justice as a quest for equality, I am particularly interested in the construction of the concept of equality on a subject, as well as collective level, and its entanglement with gender, sex, and emotions such as love. Broadly speaking my project seeks to contribute to the transnational history of the struggle for social justice in the United States. It approaches the topic from the perspective of gender, sexuality, and emotions, understanding the discourse on intimacy as a forum to address many other issues aside from sex and romance and as an allegory to talk about various political and social conflicts.

- Kurzbeschreibung
- "My ethnographic project aims at understanding the perceptions and practices of young men experiencing sexual performance concerns, particularly dysfunctions. Globally, there are over 152 million men experiencing sexual dysfunctions, erectile dysfunction in particular. For example, by the year 2025, the number of men experiencing erectile dysfunction is projected to reach about 322 million with the highest percentage increase in developing countries of Africa of 169% from 1995 to 2025 (Ayta et al. 1999). In Tanzania, particularly, the little available data on sexual performance concerns are limited on the prevalence, risk factors associated with sexual dysfunctions and among people with comorbidities such as HIV/AIDS (UKIMWI) and diabetes (See, for example, Mkongo, 2009; Mutagaywa et al. 2014). As a result, the perceptions and practices of men experiencing sexual dysfunctions have remained unexamined. So far, to the best of my knowledge, there is no ethnographic study on male sexual dysfunctions not only in Tanzania but also in the wider Sub-Saharan African region. The central argument of my project builds on the previous qualitative and/or ethnographic studies of Inhorn and Wentzell (2011); Wentzell (2013; 2014) and Zang (2015). These scholars argue that notions of ‘male sexual dysfunctions’ are not universal to all cultures and contexts. However, unlike them, whose focus has been on older people living in Europe, Australia, Asia, the Middle East and Mexico, my focus is on young men living in Africa particularly in urban Tanzania. The main questions governing this project are: How do young men make sense of sexual performance, sexual performance concerns? And what are the social implications of such constructions on perceptions of gender and sexuality? By using ethnographic approach with young men in Mwanza city and by building on theoretical frameworks of embodiment, discourses and practice, I argue that young men’s constructions of sexual performance (and sexual performance concerns) are context specific. Hence, young men’s meanings and perceptions of male sexuality including sexual performance, embodied lived experiences of male sexual performance concerns, and the coping practices with sexual performance concerns particularly sexual dysfunctions are dynamic. As such, they shift among young men, within peer groups and between partners."

- Kurzbeschreibung
- With the extension of this DFG project we propose to deepen and build upon our previous research and to include White men in our study. By doing so we hope to identify in how far discourses about masculinity and (sexual) health related practices among different identity groups in the city are inter-dependent and mutually constitutive. We found it to be crucial to emphasize the interrelatedness of men’s symbolic, physical and social positioning in the city rather than comparing seemingly isolated entities. Our objectives in this regard comprise: a) an analysis of men’s embodied concerns about sexual potency/impotence, including implications for HIV transmission, b) an analysis of changing discourses and practices of fatherhood and their impact on men’s sexuality as well as their position in wider social networks, c) an analysis of how men from different identity groups relate to each other at a particular workplace linked to HIV prevention, and d) an analysis of men’s experience and performance of emotions as indicators of changing or conflicting gender discourses and practices in the before mentioned fields.
