Was denkt die »Mitte der österreichischen Gesellschaft« über »die Migrant_innen« und welche differenzerzeugenden Strategien stehen dahinter? Wodurch werden rassistische Haltungen von wem angenommen und wie wird Rassismus innerhalb von Gruppen weitergegeben? Im Rahmen einer sozialanthropologischen Forschung in »antirassistisch« und »rassistisch« wahrgenommenen Gruppen beantwortet Christa Markom diese Fragen. Zudem diskutiert sie am Beispiel von politisch und medial relevanten Schlagworten wie »Meinungsfreiheit« oder »Political Correctness« den Widerstand gegen Sprachverbote im Kontext von Rassismus, Kultur und Migration.
This article examines how the topics of migration, cultural diversity, and discrimination are depicted in current Austrian school textbooks and how they are discussed and perceived by pupils of different age groups attending different types of schools. The discussion concentrates on three main issues: the representation of migration as problematic; the use, critical or otherwise, of specific terms; and whether the history of migration to and from Austria is represented and perceived as part of a common Austrian history. Alongside the findings of the textbook analysis, we show how the involvement of pupils in textbook and migration research can contribute to the production of scientific knowledge in this area.
