THE EUROPEAN UNION AND ITS NORMATIVE POWER IN A POST-CONFLICT SOCIETY: A CASE STUDY OF NORTHERN KOSOVO

Description
This project aims to study the role of normative power of the EU in the post-conflict society of northern Kosovo and to explore how has the signing of the Brussels agreement changed the dynamics of relations at both intra-societal (within the community of Serbs of northern Kosovo) and inter-ethnic level (Serbs of northern Kosovo vs. Kosovo Albanians and the institutions of the Kosovo government). The project would: 1. explore the motivation and driving factors of Kosovo Serbs for their positive/negative stance regarding the signature of the Brussels agreement and the cooperation with the institutions of the Government of Kosovo and Kosovo Albanians in general; 2. assess the intra-societal split within the Serb community in northern Kosovo between those who cooperate with the institutions of the Government of Kosovo and Kosovo Albanians in general, and those who still reject any kind of cooperation, and how is the intra-societal conflict (pressure) manifested; 3. evaluate the impact of normative power of the EU in northern Kosovo; 4. assess the changes in the patterns of relations between Serbs from northern Kosovo and Kosovo Albanians on political, institutional and societal level after the signing of the Brussels agreement; 5. draw policy implications for the EU Common Foreign and Security Policy. This research project draws from three theoretical backgrounds: the theory of normative power, ‘theories’ of peacebuilding, conflict prevention and conflict resolution, and the theory of intra-societal conflict. The following research methods would be applied: interviews, surveying, focus groups (field-work in Kosovo), and study of primary and secondary sources. From theoretical viewpoint, this project is innovative, as it questions the impact of EU’s normative power in a post-conflict society. This project is relevant because certain policy implications (recommendations) for the EU Common Foreign and Security Policy could be drawn from it.

‘This country is ours’: Collective psychological OWNERShip and ethnic attitudes

Description
Even in the absence of legal ownership, people tend to experience objects, places, and ideas as belonging to them (‘mine’). This state of mind is called psychological ownership. Research has shown that experiences of ownership are very important for individuals, but can also lead to interpersonal conflicts. What we know almost nothing about is collective psychological ownership (CPO): a shared sense that something is ‘ours’. CPO might be especially relevant with regard to territories and in the context of intergroup relations. Statements like ‘we were here first’ or ‘we built this country’ are increasingly used by right-wing politicians in immigration countries to claim ownership on historical basis for the dominant ethnic group, and to exclude newcomers. There are also contexts where two established groups disagree about territorial ownership, such as Albanians and Serbs in Kosovo. While CPO might strengthen solidarity within groups, it might worsen intergroup relations, thus threatening social cohesion. It is important to establish where a sense of CPO comes from, and how it shapes intergroup relations, so that interventions could be implemented. This ground-breaking project examines 1) the extent to which people perceive their ethnic group as historically owning the country, 2) the psychological needs that motivate them to claim collective ownership, and 3) the implications of collective ownership claims for attitudes towards ethnic groups. My approach is multidisciplinary, combining social psychological theories on intergroup relations with the literature on ownership and territoriality from organizational science and anthropology. I will develop an instrument to measure CPO and provide first empirical evidence about the importance of CPO by collecting representative survey data in European immigration countries (Netherlands, UK, France), settler societies (Australia, New Zealand, USA), and countries with clear territorial disputes (Kosovo, Cyprus, Israel).

MIDWEB: Migration for Development of the Western Balkans

Description
From 1.2.2010 to 30.11.2012 the project MIDWEB made a contribution to the reconstruction and the development of the countries Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and UNSC Resolution 1244 administered Kosovo. This was facilitated by a temporary mission of highly-qualified persons, who originate from these countries and lived during the project in Austria, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland and in the United Kingdom. The project focused particularly on capacity-building in certain fields of local organisations in the target countries. The project is managed by IOM in partnership with the Migration, Asylum, Refugees Regional Initiative (MARRI), the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees in Germany and the Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies (WIIW), and is funded by the European Commission.

International Civil Society Forum on Conflicts

Principal investigator Jochen Hippler (Principal Investigator)
Description
INFOCON ging der Frage nach, wie transnationale Migranten-Communities und ihre zivilgesellschaftlichen Organisationen dabei helfen können, Konflikte in Europa und in den jeweiligen Herkunftsregionen zu verhindern und zu lösen. Finanziert wurde dieses dreijährige Forschungsprogramm durch das 7. Rahmenprogramm der EU. Das INEF übernahm in diesem Zusammenhang die Erstellung einer Fallstudie für Berlin. Weitere Studien wurden parallel in Amsterdam, Brüssel und London durchgeführt. Konkret handelte es sich bei den zu untersuchenden Gemeinschaften um jene aus der Türkei (Türken/Kurden), aus dem Kosovo (Albaner/Serben) und aus Ruanda (Hutus/Tutsis). Wesentliches Merkmal des Projektes war, dass neben den beteiligten Universitäten auch Organisationen aus der Zivilgesellschaft in allen Projektphasen involviert waren und so direkt durch die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse in ihrer Arbeit unterstützt wurden.

Von der Aufnahme zu gesellschaftlicher Teilhabe: die Perspektive der Flüchtlinge auf ihre Lebenslagen in Deutschland

Principal investigator David Schiefer (Principal Investigator)
Description
Seit 2015 hat kaum ein anderes Thema Deutschland so sehr bewegt wie die Aufnahme und gesellschaftliche Teilhabe von Flüchtlingen in Deutschland. Allzu häufig fehlt in öffentlichen Debatten jedoch die Sicht der Flüchtlinge selbst. Eine gemeinsame Studie des Forschungsbereichs beim Sachverständigenrat deutscher Stiftungen für Integration und Migration (SVR) und der Robert Bosch Stiftung stellt genau diese Perspektive ins Zentrum und leitet daraus politische Handlungsempfehlungen ab. Für die Studie "Wie gelingt Integration? Asylsuchende über ihre Lebenslagen und Teilhabeperspektiven in Deutschland" wurden 62 Asylsuchende aus Syrien, Afghanistan, Somalia, Pakistan, Albanien, dem Kosovo und Mazedonien in qualitativen Interviews befragt, die zu diesem Zeitpunkt in Bayern, Niedersachsen und Sachsen lebten, erst kurze Zeit in Deutschland waren und (noch) keinen sicheren Aufenthaltsstatus hatten. Die Erzählungen der Befragten wurden in einem weiteren Policy Brief dahingehend analysiert, wie gut sie das Asyl- und Aufnahmesystem durchschauen.

Demography, Politics and Conflict: The Case of India

Description
This proposal seeks support for research on demography and conflict dynamics that builds on the principal investigator’s current work and expertise. The core focus of the research is an historical and statistical examination of the interaction of demographic factors and their impact on political conflict and violence, with a particular focus on India. The main objectives are theoretical and empirical: to develop a framework for understanding how demographic dynamics influence political conflict and violence, and a data set of conflict episodes and demographic variables. It will use state-of-the-art statistical methods to study important questions related to demography and politics. This project brings together a number of disciplines, including political science, history, statistics, economics and demography. Three main factors relating to political violence will be analysed: differential population growth and youth bulges, and then how these are related to horizontal inequality. Although this project initially focuses on India, the implications will be broadened to include other areas of world, in particular Europe. Consider the case of former Yugoslavia in the 1970s and 1980s, a case I explored in my first book. This country underwent profound ethnic shifts particularly between ethnic Albanians and ethnic Serbs in the Kosovo as result of fertility rates and migration. Similar dynamics are at work more broadly in Europe as fertility rates continue to decline in a fair number of countries (in some there is a bit of recovery, e.g. France and Sweden), putting pressure on these countries in terms of labour forces and immigration. These are the same dynamics I be examining in India and expect to explore them more broadly across the states of Europe and beyond.
