Die Häuser «zum Venedig» und «zum Weissen Bären»

Abstract

2011 begann ein umfangreiches Projekt zur Sanierung der Präparatorien des Naturhistorischen Museums Basel am Schlüsselberg. Da die Bauarbeiten sowohl aufgehende Gebäudeteile betrafen als auch Bodeneingriffe bedingten, wurde der gesamte Umbau von Kantonaler Denkmalpflege und Archäologischer Bodenforschung begleitet, deren Erkenntnisse hier vorgestellt werden.

Agency, institutions, and welfare chauvinism: Tracing the exclusion of European Union migrant citizens from social assistance in Germany

“…Scholz presented and developed his idea of excluding EU migrant citizens from social support in at least 28 speeches, interviews, and texts between 2014 and 2017. Concretely, he proposed to only grant EU migrant citizens social support once they have worked in the country of destination for at least 1 year in full-time employment at the national minimum wage (Sauga, 2016;Scholz, 2016c). Beyond changing German Journal of European Social Policy 34(2) law, he proposed an 'EU-wide' agreement for this (Scholz, 2017: 52).…”

“…Beyond changing German Journal of European Social Policy 34(2) law, he proposed an 'EU-wide' agreement for this (Scholz, 2017: 52). This would entail changing EU law to introduce an 'emergency break' for states with high social benefit uptake by EU migrant citizens, very similar to the position taken by the UK Prime Minister David Cameron (Scholz, 2016c). Over the years, Scholz's conviction that EU free movement and national welfare states were incompatible without welfare exclusions remained constant.…”

“…A newspaper article at the time even argued that Scholz 'co-governed' in Berlin (Meyer, 2016). Indicative of his network is also how Scholz organized a meeting with Angela Merkel and David Cameron to present his thoughts on the challenges of free movement, including proposals for social benefit exclusions (Meyer, 2016;Scholz, 2016c). More importantly for the law, however, is that Scholz was friends and had frequent exchanges with the then Minister of Labour and Social Affairs (Andrea Nahles) (I28, I24, I23), and personally knew the President of the Federal Social Court (Peter Masuch) (Scholz, 2016b) whom he himself had appointed (Mossig, 2016).…”
