Estimated ‘stock’ of 2.7 million Turks in Germany, where they are the largest group • Turkish migration to Germany was classic labour migration, managed by bilateral recruitment agreements 1961-64. Following Robin Cohen’s (1997) typology of diasporas, it is a labour diaspora • Labour migration Turkey Germany heavily concentrated in years 1961-73, but with a qualitative change within those years: initially from urban areas of Turkey, people with above-average education and skills; later, lower-educated unskilled workers from rural Turkey 2 Guestworkers, Settlers, ‘Euro-Turks’ • Turks in Germany are classic case of ‘guests who stayed for good’ as the Gastarbeiter soon became (semi-)permanent settled community.

  • Does Race Matter in International Beauty Pageants? a Quantitative Analysis of Miss World B S Z  R  W , PD U    B   C 
    Does race matter in international beauty pageants? A quantitative analysis of Miss World B S Z R W, PD U B C Abstract: Most research on race and beauty pageants uses qualitative research methods and focuses on national beauty pageants. For this reason it is unclear whether there are broad patterns of racial inequalities in international beauty pageants. My study addresses this issue by using a quantitative approach to examine whether race affects success rates in international beauty pageants. This study examines countries that have competed in the Miss World pageant from 1951 to 2011 and examine each country’s probability of winning and being in the semi- fi nals. The analysis shows that race matters. White countries have a much higher chance of winning and being in the semi-fi nals than non-white nations. Furthermore, white nations have been over-represented as winners and semi-fi nalists while non-white nations have been under-represented in both those categories. The patterns of success for white nations and lack of success for non-white nations demonstrates that beauty is not neutral and that global beauty pageants can be seen as a refl ection of racial hierarchies and a reaffi rmation of the ideology of white beauty. Introduction Studying Race in Beauty Pageants than simple phenotypes, in beauty pageants Browsing through the headshots of the Although race is a socially constructed where the body is visually displayed, physical 2011 contestants on the websites of the Miss concept, the concept of race and racism appearance is a noticeable way of signifying World and the Miss Universe pageants, the persists3, and in order to study racial race.5 Moreover, the general public that view women’s beauty was indisputable.

  • ​Azra Akin, Agbani Darego, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Amina Nawal
    Azra Akin, Agbani Darego, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Amina Nawal ​ On November 17, 2001, 18-year-old Agbani Darego from Nigeria was crowned Miss World. The finals were hosted by Jerry Springer and took place in Sun City in the heart of South Africa. Nelson Mandela was guest of honor. This year, pride prevailed over the usual criticism (1) of the event as a bikini-parade: Darego was the first black African Miss World, a shining example to many girls and women all over Africa, for whom having a fair complexion was still the highest ideal in beauty (2). Darego, a resident of Southern Nigeria, made it specifically clear she's a Christian. Her very special thanks went out to “God, whom [she would] always remain grateful [to] for crowning [her] life with his love…” Nigeria, after having lurched from one military coup to another, had had an elected leadership since 1999, when Olusegun Obasanjo came to power. But the political liberalization ushered in by the return to civilian rule allowed militants from the many different ethnic and religious groups (3) to express their frustrations more freely, and with increasing violence. Since 1999 thousands of people had died in communal rivalry, and separatist aspirations among some groups started to grow. The gradual imposition of Islamic law, Shari'ah, in twelve of the impoverished, predominantly Islamic, northern states solidified divisions and caused thousands of Christians to flee to the south after more than 3,000 had died in bloody protest marches. The Shari'ah courts imposed strict punishments, including floggings and amputations for transgressions like theft (4) and adultery.

  • When Romantic Love Crosses Borders: the Case of Mixed- Nationality and Transnational Couples
    When romantic love crosses borders: the case of mixed- nationality and transnational couples Başak JANOTA Erasmus Mundus Master‟s in Social Work with Families and Children Supervisor: Maria das Dores Guerreiro Co-supervisor: Ana Raquel Matias University Institute of Lisbon (ISCTE-IUL), December 2017 Abstract Title: When romantic love crosses borders: the case of mixed-nationality and transnational couples Author: Başak JANOTA Key words: immigration, globalization, transnational couples, mixed-marriages, transnational families The analysis of mixed-nationality and transnational couples‟ portraits represented here aimed to explore their experiences and difficulties about adaptation to transnational arrangements, and how these experiences shape their spousal and familial dynamics over time and space. They were analysed by following the main research questions: a) In relation to transnational migration, what are the experiences of mixed-nationality and transnational couples?, b) What are the dynamics and characteristics of mixed-nationality and transnational couples‟ relationships and how do they change over time and space?, c) How transnational migration has influenced spousal and familial dynamics and future plans? These questions were conducted in a qualitative research on the basis of ethnography and semi-structured interviews. I found that their socio-demographic status of both members of the couples had an influence on reshaping family functions, gender relations and roles in both domestic and outside spheres. Their past trajectories reflected that they acknowledged their self, their partner and family members in cross-borders while experiencing a reformation about themselves and new forms of living with diversity. These couples created their own way of intimacy and privacy while reconsidering the globalized perspectives of loving, living, thinking, acting and interacting with their beloved ones through the lens of bi-nationalism and transnationalism.
