Which city/district councils have live streams of their meeting and can they serve as a data source for political scientists? Do politicians behave differently when they are on a live stream? Find out in the open access research note by Paul Reimers (in German) doi.org/10.1007/s11615-026-00672-8

Bridging the Gap? Liveübertragungen in Kreistagen und Stadträten als Datengrundlage für die politikwissenschaftliche Forschung - Politische VierteljahresschriftThe scarcity of meeting minutes makes it difficult to analyze the working methods of local political bodies and the behavior of the actors involved. The increasing availability of livestreams and video recordings of district and city council meetings is helping to remedy this situation. Combined with technical innovations for extracting and processing large (multimodal) datasets, this availability enables new perspectives for local political research. However, for this wealth of data to be widely used, it must be generalizable to the broader population of local government bodies. Accordingly, questions arise regarding whether districts and cities that offer livestreams and recordings differ systematically from those that do not and whether these broadcasts induce shifts in local political debates.To this end, based on systematic research and a survey of district council members, this study describes the legal, political, and financial framework for introducing such recordings and examines the resulting influence on speakers’ behavior. Meeting recordings are available, particularly in large cities, but have so far been scarce in districts with low population density; furthermore, significant differences exist among the federal states. The survey indicates that adjustments to expanded public visibility of meetings are also occurring at the local level. Thus, the external validity of meeting recordings as a data source is not yet established, which should be taken into account during research design and case selection.doi.org

Neuer Aufsatz: in der PVS versuche ich mich an einer Systematisierung der Argumente pro & contra allgemeine Dienstpflicht und diskutiere ein normativ überzeugendes institutionelles Design: doi.org/10.1007/s116...

Die politische Theorie der (deutschen) Dienstpflicht: Begründungen, Einwände und institutionelles Design - Politische VierteljahresschriftIn recent years, there has been increasing debate in Germany about the introduction of a mandatory national service, and political theory has likewise shown a growing interest in such an institution. Yet while public commentaries lack a systematic and theoretically reflective engagement with the central arguments, research in political theory tends to overlook the military dimension and questions of institutional design. This article addresses these desiderata through a systematic, comparative analysis and weighting of relevant justifications and objections. It argues that the core normative issue is the appropriate relationship between individual negative liberty and competing values—security, civic equality, fairness, trust, and solidarity—as well as the proper balance between market mechanisms and state regulation. In addition, it demonstrates how particular justifications of mandatory national service require specific configurations of institutional design, the non-implementation of which may undermine the normative force of the respective justification.doi.orgPolitische Vierteljahresschrift

„Gemeinsam gegen Rechts, für Demokratie und Vielfalt“ Welche leeren Signifikanten wurden zur Mobilisierung genutzt und wie wurden sie gefüllt? Welche Reaktionen gab es darauf? Ronja Hoffmann und Stefan Matern untersuchen das Beispiel des Protests in München 2024 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Die stabilisierende Wirkung von linkem Populismus in der Demokratiebewegung – „Gemeinsam gegen Rechts, für Demokratie und Vielfalt“ - Politische VierteljahresschriftTriggered by the Correctiv investigation into a meeting of far-right actors in Potsdam, hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets across Germany in early 2024. In Munich, too, the demonstration ‘Together Against the Right, For Democracy and Diversity’ mobilised an exceptionally large number of participants. We explain the mobilisation of these many demonstrators through the discourse and populism theory of Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe, the transfer of which into protest research has so far been scarcely applied in a systematic manner. Based on a qualitative content analysis of newspaper articles, press releases, and social media posts, we identify the empty signifiers used for mobilisation in the run-up to the protest. We then analyse how these terms were concretised in the speeches and musical contributions, as well as in 65 exclusively available feedback emails from participants. Our findings show that empty signifiers such as ‘against the right’, ‘for democracy’, and ‘for diversity’ enabled broad mobilisation, yet their concretisation during the demonstration revealed agonistic conflicts and moments of dislocation. Although the demonstration exhibited left-populist elements (the construction of in- and outgroups, the use of a democratic symbol, and emotional rhetoric), it did not operate in a transformative sense according to Mouffe, but rather in a stabilising one. Thereby we demonstrate how left populism in civil-society mobilisation can function as a force stabilising the liberal-democratic system.link.springer.com
