Reallabore in öffentlichen Räumen sollen langfristige Transformationsprozesse beflügeln. Meist sind solche Interventionen projektförmig organisiert. Projekte bringen jedoch ihre eigene Zeitlogik mit sich, die sich nicht mit der Zeitlogik der beteiligten Akteure, Stadtquartiere und Alltagswelten deckt. In diesem Beitrag rekonstruieren wir anhand von zwei Mobilitätsprojekten in München und Barcelona drei Dimensionen der Asynchronität und zeigen Spannungsfelder auf, die mit ihnen einhergehen: Erstens sorgten die Eingriffe schnell für Konflikte, während sich Mobilitätsroutinen hartnäckig hielten. Zweitens waren die Projekte an Förderzeiträume sowie Legislaturperioden gekoppelt. Akteure standen unter Druck, zu handeln und symbolische Erfolge zu erzielen, unabhängig von den Entwicklungen im Quartier. Drittens führte die Transfererwartung zu einer paradoxen Situation, in der lokale Besonderheiten und Beteiligungsversprechen mit der Entwicklung skalierbarer Lösungen vereinbart werden sollten.

“…There have been a number of studies on the effects of projectification in broader scientific research contexts (see Felt 2009; Vermeulen 2015; Torka 2006; Abrahamsson and Agevall 2010). However, given the centrality and prominence of work in the form of projects in biomedicine and health care, surprisingly, there have been few studies on their effects on the production and application of biomedical knowledge.…”

“…In both health care and research, projectification leads to “structural uncertainty” (Abrahamsson and Agevall 2010, 202) with which the actors are left to cope (see Sigl 2016). This often leads to a situation in which actors only pursue research or care approaches that are “doable” (Fujimura 1987) within the temporal and spatial confines of a project, leading to the exclusion of approaches that may not fit the project form (Sigl 2016; Torka 2006). In this context, it is not mainly substantial and content-related considerations that guide project applications but often pragmatic considerations of what is deemed fundable.…”

Challenging Diversity: Steering Effects of Buzzwords in Projectified Health Care

This article discusses the effects of two trends in contemporary biomedicine that have so far been largely addressed separately: the steering of fields through programmatic “buzzwords” and the projectified nature of contemporary health research, care, and promotion. Drawing on a case study of an Austrian diversity-sensitive health promotion project related to obesity prevention, we show how the articulation of these trends—governance by buzzwords and projectification—often leads to not unproblematic and often paradoxical outcomes. Buzzwords such as “diversity” become especially important in an innovation-driven environment encouraging a promissory rhetoric. At the same time, the project form shapes and restricts how buzzwords (as typically vague terms that need to be fleshed out) are articulated and translated into a specific project design. In our case study of an obesity prevention program, the need to translate diversity into a “doable” project encouraged the identification of seemingly clearly delineated target groups and thus promoted a rather narrow understanding of diversity, which stands in tension with much more fluid and context-sensitive ways of performing “diversity.” We show how actors grapple with these paradoxes. This restricts the full power a buzzword such as diversity could achieve in terms of social justice.

“…Among the changes are the introduction of New Public Management (De Boer et al 2007), the entrepreneurial university (Slaughter and Leslie 1997), and the rise of quantitative performance indicators (Fernández-Ríos and Rodríguez-Díaz 2014;Wykes et al 2013). Furthermore, the trend towards the projectification of research management processes and structures (Packendorff and Lindgren 2014;Torka 2018) has also increased the proportion of short-term contracts (Waaijer 2015;Torka 2009;Kreckel and Zimmermann 2014). As a result, the academic profession, too, is undergoing profound changes that are affecting academics' identity work (Flink and Kaldewey 2018;Ylijoki 2014) and their future orientations (Ylijoki 2010;Rogge 2015Rogge , 2017Matthies and Torka 2019).…”
