Betül Yarar & Yasemin Karakaşoğlu publish new article "Inclusive-Exclusion of exiled scholars into German academia through the ambivalent zone of 'academic humanitarianism"

News from Feb 06, 2023

Betül Yarar & Yasemin Karakaşoğlu have written a new article titled the "Inclusive-Exclusion of exiled scholars into German academia through the ambivalent zone of 'academic humanitarianism" published in Policy Reviews in Higher Education in 2023. 

As mentioned in official reports, the number of scholars migrating from countries with autocratic regimes or/and at war to neighborhoods or Europe is increasing due to continuing attacks on scientists and academic institutions in those countries. The paper studies this phenomenon through the analysis of the data collected through a research project involving interviews with 10 experts and 22 exiled scholars who fled their home countries to Germany after 2015. Within this context, the paper particularly focuses on the experiences of scholars, who were provided by academic humanitarian actors with scholarships/positions at universities or research institutes in Germany to continue their academic work in safety.
