Der Arbeitskreis Kritische Soziale Arbeit (AKS) Hamburg auf Spurensuche alter Konflikte und Potenziale in der Kinder- und Jugendhilfe

The research group is engaged in developing new perspectives on the relationship between democracy and statehood in Europe. We are utilizing approaches grounded in historical, sociological, and political theory to conduct comparative studies of regions in Europe, particularly its southern periphery, and to reconsider old questions.

The work of the research group focuses on phenomena of violence that have immediate repercussions on the structure of entire political and social systems—this is what is meant by the concept of macro-violence. The group investigates empirical and theoretical issues and considers different regions of the world, sometimes comparatively.

Die Forschungsgruppe Monetäre Souveränität widmet sich der komplexen Beziehung zwischen Geld und Politik. Sie vereint Forschungsprojekte, die sich mit der politischen Ökonomie des Geldes in historischer oder gegenwartsbezogener Hinsicht befassen und dabei ihren Schwerpunkt auf die Theoriebildung und Theorieentwicklung legen.

The research group will provide a space in which practices and ideas of law can be critically analysed in order to shed light on complex social phenomena.
