Doctoral Dissertation Research: Political Consciousness and Young People's Life Narratives: In-Depth Profiles of Radical Right and Democratic German Men

本论文的研究将考察德国青年男性政治意识的发展。九名柏林职业学校三年级的年轻男生将接受四次面试。所有人都在之前的一波采访中接受了采访。这九人被选为代表从激进的右翼到民主的一系列政治立场，并从各种职业项目中抽样，包括信息技术电工、厨师和混凝土工人。本课程将利用口述历史、对工作和社会生活的观察以及对前次采访的讨论来理解为什么一些工人阶级男子采取激进的右翼政治，而另一些人则发展出民主政治意识。

This dissertation research will investigate the development of political consciousness in German young men. Nine young men in their third year of vocational school in Berlin will be interviewed four times. All have been interviewed in a previous wave of interviews. The nine have been selected to represent a range of political positions from radical right to democratic and to sample from a variety of vocational programs, including information technology electrician, cook, and concrete worker. Oral histories, observations of work and social life, and discussions of the previous interview will be used to understand why some working-class men adopt radical right politics while others develop a democratic political consciousness.
