Due to its geographical position in the “heart of Europe”, its expertise and disciplinary diversity, the UniGR-CBS has the best prerequisites for becoming a European network of excellence. For the creation of a “European Center for Competence and Knowledge in Border Studies”, the Interreg VA Greater Region pro- gram provides the UniGR-CBS network with approximately EUR 2.6 million ERDF funding between 2018 and 2022. Within this project, the UniGR-CBS aims at developing harmonized research tools, embedding Border Studies in teaching, promoting the dialogue on cross-border challenges between academia and institutional actors and supporting the spatial development strategy of the Greater Region. FR L’UniGR-CBS un réseau transfrontalier et thématique qui réunit environ 80 chercheuses et chercheurs des universités membres de l’Université de la Grande Région (UniGR) spécialistes des études sur les fron- tières, leurs significations et enjeux. Grâce à sa position géographique au « cœur de l’Europe », à sa capacité d’expertise et à la diversité des disciplines participantes, l’UniGR-CBS revêt tous les atouts d’un réseau d’ex- cellence européen. L’UniGR-CBS bénéficie d’un financement d’environ 2,6 M € FEDER dans le cadre du pro- gramme INTERREG VA Grande Région de 2018-2022 pour mettre en place le Centre européen de ressources et de compétences en études sur les frontières. Via ce projet transfrontalier, le réseau scientifique UniGR- CBS créera des outils de recherche harmonisés. Il œuvre en outre à l’ancrage des Border Studies dans l’en- seignement, développe le dialogue entre le monde scientifique et les acteurs institutionnels autour d’enjeux transfrontaliers et apporte son expertise à la stratégie de développement territorial de la Grande Région. DE Das UniGR-CBS ist ein grenzüberschreitendes thematisches Netzwerk von rund 80 Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern der Mitgliedsuniversitäten des Verbunds Universität der Großregion (UniGR), die über Grenzen und ihre Bedeutungen sowie Grenzraumfragen forschen. Dank seiner geographischen Lage „im Herzen Europas“, hoher Fachkompetenz und disziplinärer Vielfalt verfügt das UniGR-CBS über alle Voraus- setzungen für ein europäisches Exzellenz-Netzwerk. Für den Aufbau des Europäischen Kompetenz- und Wissenszentrums für Grenzraumforschung wird das Netzwerk UniGR-CBS von 2018-2022 mit knapp 2,6 Mio. Euro EFRE-Mitteln im Rahmen des INTERREG VA Großregion Programms gefördert. Im Laufe des Pro- jekts stellt das UniGR-Netzwerk abgestimmte Forschungswerkzeuge bereit, verankert die Border Studies in der Lehre, entwickelt den Dialog zu grenzüberschreitenden Themen zwischen wissenschaftlichen und insti- tutionellen Akteuren und trägt mit seiner Expertise zur Raumentwicklungsstrategie der Großregion bei. 3 Identities and Methodologies of Border Studies: Recent Empirical and Concep- tual Approaches Abstract EN In recent decades, Border Studies have gained importance and have seen a noticeable increase in de- velopment. This manifests itself in an increased institutionalization, a differentiation of the areas of re- search interest and a conceptual reorientation that is interested in examining processes. So far, however, little attention has been paid to questions about (inter)disciplinary self-perception and methodological foun- dations of Border Studies and the associated consequences for research activities. This thematic issue addresses these desiderata and brings together articles that deal with their (inter)disciplinary foundations as well as method(olog)ical and practical research questions. The authors also provide sound insights into a disparate field of work, disclose practical research strategies, and present methodologically sophisticated systematizations. Border Studies, boundaries, methodologies, ethnographic methods, practice, migration DE Die Border Studies haben in den letzten Jahrzehnten an Bedeutung gewonnen und einen spürbaren Ent- wicklungsschub erfahren. Dieser äußert sich in einer stärkeren Institutionalisierung, einer Ausdifferenzie- rung der Erkenntnisinteressen und einer an Prozessen interessierten konzeptionellen Neuorientierung. We- nig Aufmerksamkeit erhielten jedoch bisher Fragen nach den (inter-)disziplinären Selbstverständnissen und methodologischen Grundlagen der Border Studies und den damit verbundenen Konsequenzen für das For- schungshandeln. Das Themenheft adressiert diese Desiderata und versammelt Artikel, die sich mit ihren (inter-)disziplinären Grundlagen sowie method(olog)ischen und forschungspraktischen Fragen auseinan- dersetzen. Die Autor*innen geben darüber hinaus fundierte Einblicke in ein disparates Arbeitsfeld, legen forschungspraktische Strategien offen und stellen methodologisch versierte Systematisierungen vor. Identitäten und Methodologien der Grenzforschung. Aktuelle empirische und konzeptionelle Ansätze FR Les Border Studies ont gagné en importance au cours des dernières décennies et ont connu une poussée de développement notable. Cela se traduit par une institutionnalisation plus forte, une différenciation des intérêts de recherche et une réorientation conceptuelle axée sur des processus. Cependant, peu d'attention a été accordée jusqu'à présent aux questions concernant l'auto-compréhension (inter)disciplinaire, les fon- dements méthodologiques des Border Studies et les conséquences qui en découlent pour la recherche. Ce cahier thématique aborde ces desiderata et réunit des articles qui traitent de leurs fondements (inter)disci- plinaires ainsi que de questions méthodologiques et pratiques. En outre, les auteurs donnent des rensei- gnements fondés sur un domaine de travail disparate, révèlent des stratégies de recherche et présentent des systématisations sur le plan méthodologique.

Some are small, like shifting our table of contents headings to more clearly identify which works are peer reviewed, and changing the spacing between articles’ paragraphs. Others are more obvious, like the ability and willingness to publish even longer works than previously, in addition to the ongoing array of works published. Some transitions are in process and less visible. For example, we are working to evolve IR’s structure to reflect its degree of engagement from others, and making behind the scene shifts in our ability to better understand and realize the goals we set out to accomplish.

    Edgar Morin’S Path of Complexity

    FOREWORD EDGAR MORIN’S PATH OF COMPLEXITY ALFONSO MONTUORI Ndlr: A Montuori et l’éditeur de ‘On Complexity’ nous autorisent à reprender ici le texte anglais de la préface de l’ouvrage d’Edgar Morin qu’ils publient « ON COMPLEXITY » The reform in thinking is a key anthropological and historical problem. This implies a mental revolution of considerably greater proportions than the Copernican revolution. Never before in the history of humanity have the responsibilities of thinking weighed so crushingly on us. Does knowing that knowledge cannot be guaranteed by a foundation not mean that we have already acquired a first fundamental knowledge? And should this not lead us to abandon the architectural metaphor, in which the term “foundation” assumes an indispensable meaning, in favor of a musical metaphor of construction in movement that transforms in its very movement the constitutive elements that form it? And might we not also consider the knowledge of knowledge as a construction in movement? We need a kind of thinking that reconnects that which is disjointed and compartmentalized, that respects diversity as it recognizes unity, and that tries to discern interdependencies. We need a radical thinking (which gets to the root of problems), a multidimensional thinking, and an organizational or systemic thinking. History has not reached a stagnant end, nor is it triumphantly marching towards the radiant future. It is being catapulted into an unknown adventure. Edgar Morin: A Biblio-biography Perhaps the best way to provide a contextual introduction to Morin’s work is through an outline of his intellectual trajectory, in the form of a “biblio-biography.” A review of Morin’s journey helps us, I believe, to better understand the man and his mission in the essays that follow.

    Where is my URI? Andre Valdestilhas1, Tommaso Soru1, Markus Nentwig2, Edgard Marx3, Muhammad Saleem1, and Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo4 1 AKSW Group, University of Leipzig, Germany {valdestilhas,tsoru,saleem}@informatik.uni-leipzig.de 2 Database Group, University of Leipzig, Germany [email protected] 3 Leipzig University of Applied Sciences, Germany [email protected] 4 Data Science Group, Paderborn University, Germany [email protected] Abstract. One of the Semantic Web foundations is the possibility to dereference URIs to let applications negotiate their semantic content. However, this exploitation is often infeasible as the availability of such information depends on the reliability of networks, services, and human factors. Moreover, it has been shown that around 90% of the information published as Linked Open Data is available as data dumps and more than 60% of endpoints are offline. To this end, we propose a Web service called Where is my URI?. Our service aims at indexing URIs and their use in order to let Linked Data consumers find the respective RDF data source, in case such information cannot be retrieved from the URI alone. We rank the corresponding datasets by following the rationale upon which a dataset contributes to the definition of a URI proportionally to the number of literals. We finally describe potential use-cases of applications that can immediately benefit from our simple yet useful service. Keywords: Link Discovery; Linked Data; Endpoints; URI; Dereferencing 1 Introduction In the Web of Data, applications such as Link Discovery or Data Integration frameworks need to know where a specific URI is located.
