T1  - Forschung über Bürgerwehren in Burkina Faso: Herausforderungen und Strategien des Feldzugangs
T1  - Research on Vigilantes in Burkina Faso: Challenges and Strategies of Field Access
N2  - Dieses Working Paper veranschaulicht, wie sich die beiden Forscher*innen Janneke Tiegna und Nestor Zanté des Teilprojekts F „Lokale Selbstregelungen für die Herstellung von Sicherheit: Bürgerwehren in Burkina Faso“, während ihres bisherigen Forschungsaufenthalts von September 2019 bis Februar 2020 Zugang in ihre Forschungsgemeinden im Westen und Süden Burkina Fasos verschafft haben. Zanté forschte zu der Selbstverteidigungsgruppe Koglwéogo und Tiegna zu den Dozo-Jäger*innen. 
Dieses Working Paper erklärt zunächst die Zielgruppe und die Forschungsgebiete und geht dabei kurz auf das Forschungsinteresse ein. Es folgen Erläuterungen zur Vorbereitung auf den Feldaufenthalt. Ausführlich werden die Herausforderungen der Forschung über diese sensible Thematik erläutert sowie Abwehrreaktionen und Widerstände im Feld dargestellt. Anschließend erklären Tiegna und Zanté, mit wel-chen Strategien sie diesen Herausforderungen begegnet sind.
N2  - This working paper illustrates how the two researchers, Janneke Tiegna and Nestor Zanté, of Subproject F, „Local Self-Governance for the Provision of Security: Vigilantes in Burkina Faso”, gained access to their research communities in western and southern Burkina Faso during their research stay from September 2019 to February 2020. Zanté conducted research on the Koglwéogo self-defence group and Tiegna on the Dozo hunters.
This working paper explains first the target group and the research areas while briefly discussing the research interest. This is followed by explanations of how to prepare for the field visit. The challenges of conducting research on this sensitive topic are explained in detail, and defence reactions and resistance in the field are presented. Tiegna and Zanté then explain the strategies they used to meet these challenges.

T1  - Performance of Renewable Energy Policies – Evidence from Germany’s Transition to Auctions
N2  - Government support for green technologies and renewable energy in particular has become an integral cornerstone of economic policy for most industrialized economies. Due to competitive price determination and supposedly higher efficiency, auctions have in recent years widely succeeded feed-in-tariffs as the primary support instrument (del Rio & Linares, 2014; REN21, 2021). However, literature still struggles to produce causal evidence to validate mostly descriptive findings for efficiency gains. Yet, this evidence is needed as a foundation to provide robust recommendations to policy makers (Grashof et al., 2020). By utilizing a difference-in-differences approach, this paper provides such evidence for a German photovoltaic (PV) auctioning program which came into effect in 2015. Results for this natural experiment confirm that cost-effectiveness improved significantly while previous literature shows that capacity expansion remained high. Results additionally show that falling prices for PV panels were the primary driver of cost reductions and wages also exert high influence on support price. Input cost development therefore indeed strongly influences support level which was the aim with introducing competitive auctions. Interest rate development cannot be linked to support level development, most probably due to the low interest environment in considered period.
