(Un-)Sichtbarkeiten von Gender in Lehrwerken für Deutsch als Zweitsprache
Gender wird in Lehr-Lernmaterialien für Deutsch als Zweitsprache (DaZ) auf thematisch-inhaltlicher, bildlicher und sprachlicher Ebene sichtbar. Lehrwerke in DaZ nehmen immer eine Doppelrolle ein: Sie dienen der Vermittlung der deutschen Sprache und sollen Hilfsmittel der Integration sein. Der Beitrag geht der Frage nach, wie Gender in DaZ-Lehrwerken repräsentiert wird und welche Aspekte von Gender unsichtbar bleiben. Die Analyse wird exemplarisch an zwei Lehrwerken durchgeführt: „Die neue Linie 1“ und „Treffpunkt“. Dabei werden Querverbindungen zu queerer Repräsentation sowie zur im Fach DaZ stark wirksamen Differenzkategorie der natio-ethno-kulturellen Zugehörigkeit gezogen

An exploration of the political-administrative written language of the Holy Roman Empire in the early modern period (Eine Exploration zur politisch-administrativen Schriftsprache des frühneuzeitlichen Reiches)
Did the early modern German empire develop a political-administrative written language that not only brought the members of the empire to obedience according to their respective status, but also provided them with something like a collective identity? The corresponding analysis of the most important imperial documents as well as significant contributions of the contemporary discourse on the subject yields an ambivalent result. A clearly definable, recognizable imperial language or a formal imperial style did not come into being. This was mainly due to the fact that the Reformation and confessionalization as well as the sovereignty aspirations of the large territories meant that imperial communication also became legalized on the one hand and increasingly became an intergovernmental discourse on the other. The broad mass of subjects were therefore less and less affected by the content-related messages of the imperial leadership, although their diffuse docility, grounded in isolated iconographic and linguistic elements of imperial representation, remained
Who becomes a target? Personality, behavior, and minority status as antecedents of workplace incivility
Workplace incivility (WI) constitutes low-intensity deviant behavior in the workplace characterized by an ambiguous intent to harm and violating mutual norms of respect. Whereas outcomes of WI are well-researched, far fewer studies have investigated its antecedents. In a cross-sectional, correlational study with two large samples (N = 467 and N = 483), we examined personality traits, conflict management styles (CMS), and markers of marginalized group status as predictors of WI as well as organizational policies and norms as moderators. Results show that agreeableness, conscientiousness, and neuroticism predicted WI, with the integrating and dominating CMS partially mediating most of these relationships. Additionally, women and individuals with non-normative gender identities reported being targeted more than men. Organizational policies and norms proved to be inconsequential. These findings emphasize the role of both individual behaviors and identity-based targeting in WI. Conflict resolution training and manager awareness may help reduce WI, particularly for vulnerable groups
