This pogrom led to historically significant limitations in the right to asylum, ultimately resulting in a change to the German constitution. We propose to look at Rostock-Lichtenhagen as an example to explain that practices of remembering right-wing violence, a process that we describe with the term 'Doing Memory on right-wing violence', is a central part of creating a society's basic story. This basic story, in turn, contributes to how a society understands itself. In this chapter's second section, we argue first that analyzing practices of memory of right-wing violence, be they acknowledging, forgetting or suppressing those practices, actually make it possible to even expose the persistence of the basic story as a central element of political culture. Second, we want to uncover how potential and publicly effective interventions of and changes to the basic story might look like. Here, we build on Habermas' model of democracy, utilize Susan Bickford's work on listening as an important element in her political philosophy and refer to Benjamin Barber, who articulates that a participatory democracy requires political listening. As a result, our chapter's third section demonstrates how listening can be conceptualized from a supra-individual perspective and how questions that are critical of existing hegemonic structures can prioritize a focus on hegemonic (non)listening. Lastly, we will sketch out strategies to intervene in hegemonic (non)listening. These strategies connect theoretically with concepts of 'counter publics' and 'opinion forming publics' and reference, among others, the work of Seyla Benhabib and Iris Marion Young, thus enabling the creation and execution of resistance practices of Doing Memory on right-wing violence.}, subject = {Rechtsradikalismus}, language = {en} } @article{ZellerVirchow2024, author = {Zeller, Michael C. and Virchow, Fabian}, title = {Far-right leadership in comparison: shifts and continuities in German-speaking movements}, series = {Social Movement Studies}, journal = {Social Movement Studies}, publisher = {Informa}, issn = {1474-2837}, doi = {10.1080/14742837.2024.2430974}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-50521}, pages = {1 -- 23}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Leadership has long been acknowledged as a crucial feature of social movement activity. Theorisation has delved into the types of leadership and, more recently, the activities performed by leaders. However, comparative research on leadership and detection of any changes over time is scant. Our paper attends to these tasks by looking at the activities of two German-speaking far-right leaders. For many years, Christian Worch was one of the most active and influential neo-Nazi leaders in Germany, communicating much of his activity and strategy in the mid-2000s through a regular circular (Rundbriefe). Similarly, Martin Sellner, both as leader of the Identitarian movement and independent activist, today exercises an outsized role in the German-speaking far-right scene, including through his regular publications in the magazines Compact and Sezession. Our paper uses data of Worch's and Sellner's writings, scraped from webpages and gathered from archives, in a mixed-methods comparative design to identify the tasks performed by these leaders, and how frequently. Quantitative text analysis techniques guide the qualitative evaluation of leaders' activities and reveal shifts - and continuities - in far-right movement leadership. The paper thereby contributes to scholarship on an important aspect of contemporary far-right movements as well as broader social movement literature on the topic of leadership.}, subject = {Rechtsradikalismus}, language = {en} } @incollection{Virchow2023, author = {Virchow, Fabian}, title = {Gruppenbezogene Menschenfeindlichkeit}, series = {Rechtsextremismus: Wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse und praktische Beratungs- und Pr{\"a}ventionsarbeit am Beispiel von Schleswig-Holstein}, booktitle = {Rechtsextremismus: Wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse und praktische Beratungs- und Pr{\"a}ventionsarbeit am Beispiel von Schleswig-Holstein}, editor = {Landesdemokratiezentrum Schleswig-Holstein,}, publisher = {Wachholtz}, address = {Hamburg}, isbn = {978-3-529-05087-9}, doi = {10.797/978352906709}, pages = {32 -- 35}, year = {2023}, subject = {Rechtsradikalismus}, language = {de} } @techreport{VirchowHaeusler2020, author = {Virchow, Fabian and H{\"a}usler, Alexander}, title = {Pandemie-Leugnung und extreme Rechte in Nordrhein-Westfalen.
