Frameworks of State Culturation

The doctoral project »Frameworks of State Culturation«, examines the orientations of central actors of the educational system in context of their daily work in authorities, schools, and extracurricular educational projects and with regard to migration-related discourses and experiences. The central research question of the project is: What are the orientations of actors in the school education system regarding the topic of migration? To address this question, semi-structured interviews and group discussions of educational actors in the education system from Bavaria, Berlin, Brandenburg, North Rhine-Westphalia, and Saxony on the topics of migration are analysed by using the documentary method. The interviews were conducted with people from the school development institutes and state offices of the federal states, teachers, and actors from extracurricular educational institutions from 2020 to 2024.
