{"title":"Like Snow in the Sun. The German Minority in Denmark in Historical Perspective","authors":"M. Klatt","doi":"10.1080/13537113.2023.2207870","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13537113.2023.2207870","url":null,"abstract":"Avigail Eisenberg argues that, in Canada, multiculturalism presents important obstacles to decolonization. Furthermore, Amanda Gouws presents the difficulties in applying the concept of multiculturalism to postcolonial societies in her discussion of South Africa. The book has a global reach but dedicates less attention to some interesting cases. The extensive coverage of the Canadian case is self-evident and provides a useful point of reference for the various discussions in the book. Other parts of the Americas are relatively little discussed. The chapter on language policies in the United States uses a multitude of quotations, which are hard to contextualize and might not be accessible for a global readership. In addition, the significance of multicultural politics in Latin America is mentioned only in passing in the book. Yet, the chapter by Debra Thompson on Black Lives Matter convincingly provides evidence to the claim that multiculturalism has proven wholly insufficient to challenge persistent racial inequality in democratic societies. The chapters also include well-written introductions on rights of minorities in the European Union by Dolores Morondo Taramundi and anti-multiculturalism in contemporary Hungary by Zsolt K€ ortv elyesi. The book also covers the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on diverse societies: Anna Triandafyllidou discusses whether the pandemic emergency can lead to both policy and analytical innovation in matters of membership and citizenship, and Tim Soutphommasane questions the durability of Australian multiculturalism during the pandemic. The editors, Yasmeen Abu-Laban, Alain-G Gagnon, and Arjun Tremblay, provide useful introductory and concluding chapters that tie the book together: They outline multiculturalism’s contemporary challenges and possible futures, framing the book’s overall engagement with multiculturalism’s promise and limitations. However, the emphasis on the shortcomings of multiculturalism and the need for other approaches somewhat hides the significant contribution of the Canadian experience of multiculturalism both to international discussions and to global recognition of minority rights. Yet, a critical debate on multiculturalism is necessary, and the book provides a relevant overview of critical debates on diversity politics. This valuable collection of chapters will be of great interest for anyone involved in contemporary debates on diversity politics and will serve as a key publication for anyone with an interest in the trajectory and future of multiculturalism.","PeriodicalId":45342,"journal":{"name":"Nationalism and Ethnic Politics","volume":"46 1","pages":"267 - 269"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90546392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While liberal democratic societies’ unanimous condemnation of that invasion was followed by unprecedented sanctions and a rupture of diplomatic and economic relations with Russia, some Western social and political actors supported, to some extent, the Russian rhetoric regarding the invasion of Ukraine. Consequentially, this paper not only reveals that Russian state discourses aimed to justify the invasion, it also identifies the selective dissemination of Russian state discourses by the AfD in Germany. Moreover, it compares the antagonistic discursive dynamics in the authoritarian pseudo-civil sphere and the similar discourses of the radical right in the democratic civil sphere, and examine their reception in Russia and Germany. Drawing on Multilayered Narrative Analysis, which relies on a combination of cultural sociological Civil Sphere Theory (CST) and mnemonic figurations developed in the historical sociology of Bernhard Giesen, this paper first describes the Russian state discourses intended to sacralize the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It then examines to what extent the populist radical right disseminated these in Germany, before analyzing and comparing the symbolic influence of such discourses in the Russian pseudo-civil and German civil spheres.","PeriodicalId":45342,"journal":{"name":"Nationalism and Ethnic Politics","volume":"26 1","pages":"129 - 153"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80108731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The following chapter by Michael Byram (Durham University) analyzes school, language, and identity in North Schleswig in the 1980s. It is widely accepted that education has a key function in promoting the use of minority language and identity, but in cases of cross-border minorities, the curricula taught must accommodate the narrative and demands of both, the kinand the state of residence. Additionally, German schools in a Danish state faced a challenge that most minority members spoke the regional dialect Sønderjysk (Southern Jutian), neither standard Danish, nor standard German of the states to which they could be linked via ethnopolitical identities. The former principal of one of the Danish high schools in South Schleswig, Jørgen K€ uhl, offers an overview of minority history until 2020, the centenary of border redrawal and reconstitution of German minority in Denmark. He points out that relationships have normalized since 1995 when the chairman of the German minority spoke for the first time at the central lieu-de-memoire in Danish national history, the battle of Dybbøl memorial day. To this effect, K€ uhl argues, the younger generation from the community see no contradiction in pursuing schooling at first in Danish Duborgskolen in South Schleswig and then enrolling in Deutsches Gymnasium Nordschleswig. He concludes that the previously dominant reference of the region’s citizens to either of the nation-states as homelands, has yielded place to a non-state, Schleswig regional identity. The final chapter by Ruairidh Tarvet (Edinburgh University) confirms this observation in the analysis of linguistic identity in the German minority. He demonstrates both the flexibility of code switching in different circumstances and navigation between standard German, standard Danish and the Sønderjysk dialect. This book opens existing historical research on the region in the region’s languages to an international public; it adds to understanding of hitherto unknown aspects of minority identity formation and community consolidation. Yet, much more critical reflection could have been offered in this volume on the dominant presentation of minority history during and its relationship to NS German rule. If anything this reflects on challenges that minority members themselves face in their Vergangenheitsbew€altigung and are increasingly perceived as such by the minority itself.","PeriodicalId":45342,"journal":{"name":"Nationalism and Ethnic Politics","volume":"2 1","pages":"269 - 271"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86900475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It surveys the literature on the need for power-sharing as a conflict management tool for deeply divided societies and explores its suitability for Syria. Two particular power-sharing models are explored: the consociational and centripetal. Both arrangements are examined through a comparative research that assesses the success and failures of the Lebanese and Iraqi power-sharing experiences. The findings suggest that reform toward post-conflict reconstruction requires a multi-step political agreement that may be initiated in an agreement toward a transitional consociational power-sharing arrangement followed by the gradual attainment of centripetal-based power structure.","PeriodicalId":45342,"journal":{"name":"Nationalism and Ethnic Politics","volume":"29 1","pages":"179 - 203"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83769092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, the peninsula’s autonomous status secured ethnopolitical stability for about 19 years, and the article considers how the established regime of diversity governance contributed to the autonomy’s endurance. The author concludes that this regime did not fit into an explanatory framework of inter-group balance, such as power-sharing. Among the factors securing durablity were the ambiguity of official narratives, loosely formalized participatory mechanisms encouraging opportunisic behavior and the maintenace of the elites’ and population segments’ expectations.","PeriodicalId":45342,"journal":{"name":"Nationalism and Ethnic Politics","volume":"26 1","pages":"204 - 223"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81201180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The development of migrant integration frames mirrors a process where the local scale has contributed to the development of a national policy based on the concept of “multicultural coexistence.” Under the impulsion of immigration reforms, the central government has consolidated the national framework and strengthened its involvement in the governance of migrant integration turning to a more economic framing of migrants. While the cases of Aichi prefecture and Nagoya and Toyohashi cities (located in Aichi prefecture) reflect a gradual convergence of frames with the national level, policies in Kyoto prefecture and Kyoto city do not echo such shifts. Surprisingly, Kyotango city located in Kyoto prefecture has drawn on national level policies turning to a more economic framing of migrants. A focus on “relationality” and stakeholders in policy formulation and relationships between different scales of governance suggests that the assemblage of local political actors bringing their priorities to the discussion table are important shaping forces of local policy frame development. At the same time, exchanges in horizontal and vertical networks exhibit the vitality of the circulation of ideas, even in the absence of formal coordination mechanisms.","PeriodicalId":45342,"journal":{"name":"Nationalism and Ethnic Politics","volume":"18 1","pages":"154 - 178"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78503726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
