Olsson, Rolf Johan. "Persons or aliens? : making normative sense of non-citizens' legal standing in the U.S. and Germany." Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 2007. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/2046/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis aims to analyse the normative rationales behind non-citizens' legal standing in two liberal nation-states. The thesis takes the cosmopolitan and communitarian rationales as its theoretical starting point. Specific attention is given to the possibility of coherently combining the cosmopolitan and the communitarian rationales. The thesis analyses the actual legal standing of non-citizens in the U.S. and Germany and so links the political theoretical discourse to alienage jurisprudence. The conclusions drawn are that both the cosmopolitan and the communitarian rationales underlie non-citizens' legal standing. The treatment of noncitizens is fairly normatively coherent and in line with a weak cosmopolitan perspective. The thesis, however, identifies limited but important normative contradictions in the treatment of non-citizens and outlines, on a practical level, what is required to remedy this situation.

Sturge, Kathryn Ecroyd. "'The alien within' : translation into German during the Nazi regime." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 1999. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1318013/.
Full textAbstract:
The thesis examines the policy and practice of literary translation into German during the Nazi regime. It is shown that translation survived, albeit in a constrained form, throughout the period and that heavy official intervention was itself grounded in contradictory attitudes to translation. A consideration of the state regulation and reception of translation demonstrates that translated literature was regarded with suspicion as a potentially harmful invasion of the foreign. Terms used - such as the 'alien within' and the danger of miscegenation - clearly participate in the surrounding discourse of anti-Semitism. However, a database of translations published in the period shows that while such views certainly shaped the selection of genre and source language, there was no simple suppression and numbers remained stable or even rose until 1940. This is accounted for on the one hand by the regime's promotion of certain translations, selected on criteria that draw on notions of literature's cultural specificity as an expression of the Volk soul. An approved translation is compared with its source, showing that consonance with this literary ideology has been enhanced by the detail of translation choices; official reviews further position the text within the boundaries of acceptability. On the other hand, the single largest translated genre of the pre-war period, the Anglo-American detective novel, was not promoted but reviled by the literary bureaucracy. An examination of the source texts and translations of ten detective novels demonstrates that the ideologically marginalised genre adapted itself to the receiving culture by heightening the rule-boundness, strict gender roles and portrayals of authority present in the source texts. The glamorisation of foreign settings remains unaffected, suggesting the persistence of a pre-1933 fascination with Anglo-American culture. The thesis concludes that while the foreignness of foreign literature was fiercely attacked by literary policymakers, it was also promoted in certain, politically acceptable forms and in other cases persisted on its own commercial trajectory despite official disapproval. The study thus contributes to the understanding both of an under-researched area of literary policy in Nazi Germany and of the ideological, institutional and commercial contexts of translation.

Simsek-Caglar, Ayse. "German Turks in Berlin : migration and their quest for social mobility." Thesis, McGill University, 1994. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=41770.
Full textAbstract:
This study examines the dynamics of German Turks' practices and life-styles and their relationship with Turkey in the context of the possibilities brought into their lives by their particular type of dislocation. Turkish migrants' "culture" and life-styles are explored in the context of their complex social space, rather than within a framework encapsulated in a reified ethnicity and/or immutable "Turkish culture".Chapter I discusses concepts of ethnicity, culture and identity and presents a critical account of the literature on German Turks in this respect. Chapter II focuses on the ambiguities and insecurities of German Turks' legal, political and social status in both Turkey and Germany, and traces the consequences of these conditions on Turkish migrants' complex sense of place. The discussion of German Turks' "myths of return" in the context of their liminality and the impact these have on their self-image and their visions about their lives constitute the focus of chapters III and IV respectively. Chapter V explores the changing nature of Turkish migrants' interpersonal relationships. Chapter VI concentrates on the anomalies of the social space occupied by German Turks in German society and discusses their life-styles, practices and emergent cultural forms in the context of social mobility.

Full textAbstract:
During the last several decades, many people, fleeing from disasters or political threats, have applied for asylum in the European countries. Council Directive 2003/9/EC, laying down minimum standards for the reception of asylum-seekers, as well as several other directives, have been developed in the EU in order to ensure fair treatment of the asylum-seekers in all the European countries. However, there are huge differences in the national asylum laws of countries and consequently, the way they treat the asylum-seekers. In this research, the national asylum laws of Germany and the Netherlands are studied and compared, showing that though following the Council Directive, fair or equal treatment of asylum-seekers cannot be guaranteed. In the Netherlands asylum-seekers are granted with a great extent of benefits while in Germany, they are greatly discriminated against. Based on the Social Determinants of Health Model, developed by Dahlgren and Whitehead in 1991, the hypothesis is that the asylum seekers in the Netherlands enjoy better health status than the ones in Germany, because based on the Dutch asylum laws, they have better living and working conditions. In order to confirm or negate this hypothesis, a meta-study of available literature on the health status of asylum-seekers has been done. However, the hypothesis could not be confirmed/ negated due to extreme lack of availability of data in this area. By discussing the relationship between life conditions and health of individuals, reviewing current legal instruments regulating asylum in the EU and analyzing the available data on the health status of asylum-seekers, this paper draws the attention to the importance of data and research on these topics and the need for development of practices for collection of such information. Availability of such information can affect future decision and policy makings regarding asylum-seekers and their health and might result in comprehensive reformations in the current national or international legal instruments.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse mène une réflexion historique et épistémologique sur la façon dont les altérations de la parole ont été étudiées en médecine mentale. Retraçant les étapes de l’attention accordée aux paroles des patients dans l’aliénisme de la première moitié du XIXe siècle jusque dans la clinique psychiatrique du début du XXe siècle, elle tente de comprendre avec quelles motivations et dans quels buts les médecins ont observé ces phénomènes. L’analyse précise la manière dont certaines modifications de la parole sont devenues fondamentales pour le diagnostic des maladies mentales et indique la place que les spécialistes leur ont attribuée dans leur sémiologie de la folie. L’interrogation porte ainsi sur les ressources pratiques et théoriques avec lesquelles les médecins ont observé et analysé ces troubles du langage. Les méthodes et les procédures mises en place pour récolter les paroles des patients et les outils conceptuels permettant de les appréhender sont examinés. L’enquête fait en outre ressortir les partages disciplinaires qui s’opèrent à cette époque dans le champ des sciences médico-psychologiques, en tenant compte de la façon dont les auteurs nomment, définissent et classent ces désordres langagiers, tout en soulignant les liens explicites ou implicites qu’ils établissent avec des domaines ne relevant pas directement de la médecine, tels que la philosophie, l’anthropologie, la psychologie et la linguistiqueThis doctoral thesis offers a historical and epistemological reflection on the way in which mental medicine has studied speech alterations.Tracing the various stages of the interest given to patients’ speech in alienist medicine and in psychiatry from the 19th century to the early 20th century, this work attempts to understand the goals and motivations of medical doctors observing these phenomena. The analysis helps clarify how speech modifications have become fundamental in diagnosing mental illness and how specialists have attributed a special place to them in their semiology of madness. It also questions the practical and theoretical resources with which medical doctors have observed and analysed language disorders. It examines the methods and processes used to gather patients’ speech and the conceptual tools that enable its apprehension. Moreover, this survey emphasizes the partition of the medico-psychological disciplines occurring at the time, by observing the ways in which the authors name, define and classify these speech and language disorders, and considering the links implicitly or explicitly made with other non-medical fields such as philosophy, anthropology, psychology and linguistics

The object of this research is the reconstruction of the existing legal response by European Union states to the phenomenon of immigration. It seeks to analyse the process of conferral of protection. One main dimension is selected and discussed: the case law of the national courts. The study focuses on the legal status of immigrants resulting from the intervention of these national courts. The research shows that although the courts have conferred an increasing protection on immigrants, this has not challenged the fundamental principle of the sovereignty of the states to decide, according to their discretionary prerogatives, which immigrants are allowed to enter and stay in their territories. Notwithstanding the differences in the general constitutional and legal structures, the research also shows that the courts of the three countries considered – France, Germany and Spain – have progressively moved towards converging solutions in protecting immigrants. The research contributes to a better understanding of the different legal orders analysed.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents an investigation of the Record of Aliens files of the Intelligence Section, General Staff, 6th Military District (Tasmania) for 1914 - 1919 held by the Australian Archives in Hobart. By positioning the Record of Aliens files within the context of the social and economic forces shaping Tasmanian attitudes during the war I have attempted to enhance our understanding of the information contained within the files and provide as balanced an assessment of their historical significance as possible.
The Record of Aliens files were released for public access during 1992 and consist of 759 standardised numbered forms (see appendix 2) of one, or occasionally two sheets, in alphabetical order. The files are a summary, probably completed in late 1919, of information collected from August 1914 until late 1919. The original files appear to have been destroyed. For purposes of the present analysis two copies of the Records were made and one set arranged to provide a chronological record of
the activities of the Military Intelligence Section throughout the war and the immediate post-war period, while the other set has been classified into various categories as presented in the first section of chapter four. The main difficulties with the chrono-logical analysis are that 124 files are undated (16.2%) and a number of different dates relating to different events or reports are shown on the one file. In the latter case the date of the earliest significant event recorded was used as the basis of classification. A similar problem arose with the categorical analysis since many individual files recorded different types of events. The most significant event was used for primary allocation and the file was then cross-referenced for the other information.
The central question informing this paper is whether the recorded acts of surveillance, questioning, registration and detention of enemy aliens and others within Tasmania during the First World War were reasonable war precautions or harsh acts of reprisal against "the enemy within"? In seeking an answer I have set out my investigation as follows. Chapter one presents the Commonwealth Government's role in maintaining the external and internal security of Australia during the war. Chapter two explores the nature of Tasmanian society during the decade from 1910- 1920. Chapter three provides a detailed chronological survey of the Record of Aliens files and chapter
four presents an analysis of the files and a conclusion.

Glaros, Maria. "'Sometimes a little injustice must be suffered for the public good' : how the National Security (Aliens Control) Regulations 1939 (Cth) affected the lives of German, Italian, Japanese and Australian born women living in Australia during the Second World War." Thesis, 2012. http://handle.uws.edu.au:8081/1959.7/520521.
Full textAbstract:
Throughout Australia’s history xenophobic immigration policies and security measures have appeared in times of uncertainty. The implementation of the Anti‐Terror laws in 2005 inspired me to carry out research on important security measures introduced at the outbreak of the Second World War in September 1939. Migrants living in Australia became subject to the National Security (Aliens Control) Regulations 1939 (Cth) introduced by the Commonwealth government. ‘Non‐British’ persons living in Australia were required to register as ‘aliens’; nationals from countries with which Australia was at war were classified as ‘enemy aliens’. This included all German Italian and Japanese nationals. In addition, Australian women married to enemy aliens lost their British nationality under the Nationality Act 1920 (Cth) and were required to register as enemy aliens. This study focuses on five groups of women affected by the legislation: Australian born women of German descent, Italian born women, Australian born women of Japanese descent, German Jewish refugee women, and Australian born women married to Italian nationals. These groups were chosen not only to highlight the various ways in which the Regulations were applied to women of different nationalities, but also to address a gap in the literature on the control and internment of ‘alien’ women, despite the vast amount of material that was available at the National Archives of Australia (NAA). This thesis is in large part based on archival research. Files on over 700 women were examined, many of which had never before been consulted. I also conducted five interviews, including three women who were registered as enemy aliens during the war. This dissertation has 3 parts. Part I provides an analysis of the Aliens Control Regulations and those who helped administer the laws. It also provides context on the operation of these laws by detailing the experience of Italian women who were detained under the Regulation just moments after Italy entered the war. Part II provides case studies illustrating the diverse ways in which these Regulations were applied. Part III shows women who fell victim to circumstance – German‐Jewish refugee women who were wrongly categorized as ‘enemy aliens’ and Australian born women married to Italian nationals, unaware that they had lost their British status. The case studies presented in this thesis show that ‘war hysteria’, discrimination, isolation, racism and victimization were all part of the wartime experience of these women who were caught in the net of the Aliens Control Regulations.
