    1. KONSCHTHAL ESCH CONTEMPORARY ART SPACE Prior to opening in autumn 2021, while the premises are being transformed, the Konschthal Esch is presenting an exhibition cycle entitled Schaufenster (Window), showcasing a series of contemporary art installations. The Konschthal Esch will thus position itself as an essential institution for the development of the cultural network in Esch-sur-Alzette, while aiming to achieve a national and international dimension. The first exhibitions will illustrate these ambitions while laying the foundations for mediation programmes destined for an inter- generational public. Designed as a production and exhibition platform for contemporary visual arts, The Konschthal Esch will host both international contributions and local productions. It will become a place of sociocultural exchange in resonance with contemporary subjects and their repercussions in today’s art world. The Konschthal Esch will be an essential element in the cultural development strategy of Connexions. Its programme will be established in correlation with the Bridderhaus institution of artists’ residences and will form a part of the urban cultural fabric while prioritizing collaborations with other cultural institutions in Esch-sur-Alzette.

  • Current Migration Situation in the EU: Hate Crime November 2016
    HELPING TO MAKE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS A REALITY FOR EVERYONE IN THE EUROPEAN UNION Current migration situation in the EU: hate crime November 2016 Asylum seekers and migrants face various forms of violence and harassment across the European Union (EU). As this month’s report on the migration situation underscores, such acts are both perpetrated and condoned by state authorities, private individuals, as well as vigilante groups. They increasingly also target activists and politicians perceived as ‘pro-refugee’. Meanwhile, a lack of relevant data is hampering efforts to develop effective measures to prevent these incidents. Outlining recent attacks in 14 EU Member States, this focus of the November report also examines the diverse factors that undermine the reporting of such incidents and highlights promising practices seeking to counter them. Contents Thematic focus: hate crime....................................................................................................2 Main findings ..........................................................................................................................2 Scarce recording of incidents targeting asylum seekers and migrants................................... 3 Incitement to hatred.......................................................................................................................... 7 Question of perpetrators................................................................................................................... 7 Factors behind the low reporting of incidents

  • Multiple Modernities Or Varieties of Modernity?
    Multiple Modernities or Varieties of Modernity? Volker H. Schmidt National University of Singapore CS abstract: The article offers a critical appraisal of the concept of multiple moder- nities that has been gaining ground in sociology during the past decade. It rejects this concept as both conceptually flawed and empirically unfounded, and it proposes an alternative concept, that of varieties of modernity, which is believed to be better able to address the former’s substantive concerns, while at the same time permitting us to speak of modernity in the singular. The main source of inspi- ration for such an alternative concept is the varieties of capitalism paradigm guiding the new political economy literature, and one of its advantages over the multiple modernities paradigm is its focus on institutions, rather than vague, barely explicated notions of culture and cultural difference. However, a varieties of modernity approach that followed its lead would have to be much broader and more comprehensive, and would therefore be more difficult to develop and to apply, than the varieties of capitalism paradigm. But even if it ultimately proved infeasible, the very consideration of its methodological prerequisites would still promise to yield valuable insights for students of modernity. keywords: capitalism ✦ institutions ✦ modernity Introduction In the 1990s, a new paradigm emerged in sociology to conceptualize the contemporary world: the concept of multiple modernities. The propo- nents of the new paradigm share a number of key assumptions about

  • Pietas Austriaca? the Imperial Legacy in Interwar and Postwar Austria
    religions Article Pietas Austriaca? The Imperial Legacy in Interwar and Postwar Austria Dieter A. Binder ID Chair of Cultural Studies, Andrássy University, Pollack Mihály tér 3, 1088 Budapest, Hungary; [email protected] Received: 7 July 2017; Accepted: 21 August 2017; Published: 29 August 2017 Abstract: This paper aims to outline the specific Habsburg character of Austrian Catholicism through a study of Pietas Austriaca, the supposed Habsburg tradition of Catholic piety, and its role in the First and Second Austrian Republics. It analyzes the narrative of Austrian history presented by the Heldendenkmal, or Heroes’ Monument, which was erected in Vienna in 1934. Further, it argues that Pietas Austriaca was linked in the postwar period to a notion of Heimat (Home, Homeland) and served the needs of Austrian political Catholicism, which was seeking to recruit former National Socialists. Keywords: Habsburg; Austria; empire; Catholicism; Pietas Austriaca; Christian Social Party; Austrian People’s Party; Heimat; Heldendenkmal Political Catholicism utilised its commitment to the concept of Pietas Austriaca to define its political position towards both Social Democratic Austro-Marxism and National Socialism. After 1945, the Roman Catholic Church served as a vehicle for the denazification of former National Socialists. By creating the “Heimat”, it endeavoured to establish a common front against Social Democracy in order to implement a masked bourgeois bloc. Ultimately, this would to some extent explain the rise of the Austrian Freedom Party from 1986 on. “The Pietas Austriaca, i.e., Austrian piety—referring here to Austria as Casa d’Austria, i.e., the House of Austria, and not as a geopolitical entity—was propagated in the Baroque era as the most fundamental virtue of the Habsburg dynasty.
