Among recent doctoral graduates, the proportion of temporary contracts is particularly high. However, research on the association between contract type and job satisfaction specifically among doctoral graduates is scarce. Therefore, whether and how obtaining permanent employment affects doctoral graduates' job satisfaction remains a notable research gap that we intend to narrow by using panel data from a recent doctoral graduation cohort and by adopting a panel research design. We examine what effect obtaining permanent employment has on doctoral graduates' job satisfaction and whether this effect differs by labour market sector. We use panel data that are representative of the 2014 doctoral graduation cohort in Germany and their career trajectories up to five years after graduation. We apply fixed-effects regression to approximate the within-effect of obtaining a permanent employment contract on job satisfaction. The analyses indicate that obtaining permanent employment increases doctoral graduates' job satisfaction and that this increase is not driven by time-varying confounders. We also find that doctoral graduates' labour market sector moderates the effect: the increase in job satisfaction is highest in the academic sector and statistically significantly different from that in the private sector. Overall, this paper offers new insights into the effect of obtaining a permanent contract on the job satisfaction of recent doctoral graduates throughout their first years after graduation, when they are often employed on temporary contracts.}, language = {en} } @article{ZeigermannEttelt2023, author = {Zeigermann, Ulrike and Ettelt, Stefanie}, title = {Spanning the boundaries between policy, politics and science to solve wicked problems: policy pilots, deliberation fora and policy labs}, series = {Sustainability Science}, volume = {18}, journal = {Sustainability Science}, number = {2}, doi = {10.1007/s11625-022-01187-y}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-324806}, pages = {809-821}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Current crises have highlighted the importance of integrating research, politics and practice to work on solutions for complex social problems. In recent years, policy deliberation fora, policy pilots and policy labs have increasingly been deployed to mobilise science to produce solutions, help create popular support and guide implementation of policies addressing major public policy problems. Yet, we know little about how these approaches manage to transcend the boundaries between research, politics and practice. By systematically comparing policy deliberation fora, policy pilots and policy labs, this paper explores their mechanisms of boundary spanning including relationship and trust building, knowledge translation and developing solutions. We situate our analysis in healthcare policy and climate change policy in Germany, two contrasting policy fields that share a perpetual and escalating sense of crisis. Our findings suggest that deliberation fora, policy pilots and policy labs address different dilemmas of policymaking, namely the idea dilemma, the implementation dilemma and the legitimacy dilemma. All three approaches reduce wicked problems to a manageable scale, by grounding them in local decision-making, reducing their scope or reducing the problem analytically. We argue that despite their ambition to modernise democratic practices, unless they are institutionally well embedded, their effects are likely to be small scale, local and temporary.}, language = {en} } @article{SenaratneMuehlbauerKiefletal.2023, author = {Senaratne, Hansi and M{\"u}hlbauer, Martin and Kiefl, Ralph and C{\´a}rdenas, Andrea and Prathapan, Lallu and Riedlinger, Torsten and Biewer, Carolin and Taubenb{\"o}ck, Hannes}, title = {The Unseen — an investigative analysis of thematic and spatial coverage of news on the ongoing refugee crisis in West Africa}, series = {ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information}, volume = {12}, journal = {ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information}, number = {4}, issn = {2220-9964}, doi = {10.3390/ijgi12040175}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-313607}, year = {2023}, abstract = {The fastest growing regional crisis is happening in West Africa today, with over 8 million people considered persons of concern. A culmination of identity politics, climate-driven disasters, and extreme poverty has led to this humanitarian crisis in the region and is exacerbated by a lack of political will and misplaced media attention. The current state of the art does not present sufficient investigations of the thematic and spatial coverage of news media of this crisis in this region. This paper studies the spatial coverage of this crisis as reported in the media, and the themes associated with those locations, based on a curated dataset. For the time frame 12 March to 15 September 2021, 2017 news articles related to the refugee crisis in West Africa were examined and manually coded based on (1) the geographical locations mentioned in each article; (2) the themes found in the articles in reference to a location (e.g., Relocation of people in Abuja). The dataset introduces a thematic dimension, as never achieved before, to the conflict-ridden areas in West Africa. A comparative analysis with UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) data showed that 96.8\% of refugee-related locations in West Africa were not covered by news during the considered time frame. Contrastingly, 80.4\% of locations mentioned in the news do not appear in the UNHCR repository. Most news articles published during this time frame reported on Development aid or Political statements. Linear multiple regression analysis showed GDP per capita and political stability to be among the most influential determinants of news coverage.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Djakowski2024, author = {Djakowski, Paul}, title = {Schulische politische Bildung in Deutschland und Polen.

Im Zuge dieses Prozesses durchl{\"a}uft jeder junge B{\"u}rger einen politischen Bildungsweg an Schulen. Die Vorgaben dar{\"u}ber, wie schulische politische Bildung auszusehen hat und welche Kompetenzen Sch{\"u}ler in diesem Zusammenhang erwerben sollen, geben die Kultus- bzw.

Durch eine komparative Analyse der Curricula kann damit eindeutig die staatlich vorgegebene politische, gesellschaftliche und soziale Richtung festgestellt werden, die junge Menschen einschlagen sollen. Welche edukativen Ziele der politischen Bildung werden verfolgt? Was sollen Sch{\"u}ler lernen, um mit diesen Kompetenzen die Zukunft ihres Kollektivs zu gestalten? Wo liegen die Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede zweier Staaten, in unserem Fall Deutschlands und Polens, im Hinblick auf die schulische politische Bildung? Beantwortet werden diese Fragestellungen durch das Anwenden zweier Methoden der qualitativen Sozialforschung, der komparativen Inhaltsanalyse, zum einen der strukturierenden zum anderen der induktiven. Davor erfolgt eine komparativ quantitative Untersuchung, die den Umfang der Unterrichtszeit in den Leitf{\"a}chern f{\"u}r politische Bildung in allen Bundesl{\"a}ndern und in Polen vergleicht, was einer empirischen Totalerhebung der komplex umfangreichen Daten entspricht. Die quantitativen Forschungsergebnisse zeigen deutliche Differenzen zwischen Deutschland und Polen, in einem der beiden Staaten wird signifikant mehr Zeit f{\"u}r politische Bildung im Leitfach dieser Disziplin investiert als im anderen. Anhand der qualitativen Daten ist zu erkennen, dass einerseits eine gemeinsame Grundbasis von Kompetenzen der politischen Bildung zwischen Deutschland und Polen besteht. Anderseits stechen in beiden L{\"a}ndern eindeutige Unterschiede hervor, deren Ursprung zum einen historische Erfahrungen der Nationen und Staaten abbildet, zum anderen aktuell gegens{\"a}tzliche politische Interessen untermauert.}, subject = {Politische Bildung}, language = {de} }
