Migration and integration have been a political and social challenge for the federal republic of Germany since its establishment and at the same time have been providing potential for economic, social and cultural changes. There was admission to a society which had gone through fundamental changes and which had gone on a quest for the development of its own self-conception. For the West German Protestantism migration has been cause for diaconic humanitarian commitment, but as well for social ethical response and influence. In Protestant contributions to the discussions on migration and integration, according to the particular migrant group and the moment of immigration, rather different ethical and political issues have been negotiated explicitly and implicitly. Likewise the Protestant agents of discussion varied as well as their chosen forms of action and their social forms. Discussions on a continuous immigration of migrants of most different origin and their individual motives will be focused on in the second funding phase. Thereby the emphasis is shifting to the particular situation and procedure of admission as well as to the (West)German receptiveness in the stress field of national interests and humanitarian solidarity. The research project documents and analyses the so far undefined part of Protestantism in the (West)German debates on refugees and asylum as conflicts of values, interests and democracy. It will be shown how Protestantism evaluated the refugees conditions of admission and acceptance procedures, which of its ethical issues and lines of argument have been impacting the debates of the host society and how Protestantism influenced decisions of refugee and asylum politics. The research project offers valuable clues to the estimation of migration motives and ideas of refugees by Protestantism, his handling of refugee hierarchies and solidarity hierarchies, his religious and secular argumentation and his balancing of areas of conflict between individual human rights and common welfare as well as Protestant self-conception, forms of action and forms of socialization in a constitutional democracy. Emphasis will be placed on Protestant reasoning with human dignity and human rights and so will be planted on one of the new junctions. The time focus lies, corresponding to the core area of the entire research group, now on the 1970ies and 80ies.

自德意志联邦共和国成立以来，移民和融合一直是其面临的政治和社会挑战，同时也为经济、社会和文化变革提供了潜力。他们被接纳为一个经历了根本变革的社会，这个社会正在寻求发展自己的自我概念。对于西德新教来说，移民不仅是人道主义承诺的原因，也是社会伦理反应和影响的原因。在新教对移民和融合讨论的贡献中，根据特定的移民群体和移民时刻，相当不同的伦理和政治问题已经明确或含蓄地进行了谈判。同样，讨论的新教代理人也各不相同，他们选择的行动形式和社会形式也各不相同。在第二个筹资阶段，将集中讨论来源最不同的移徙者的持续移民问题及其个人动机。因此，重点正在转向接纳的具体情况和程序，以及（西）德国在国家利益和人道主义团结的压力领域的接受程度。该研究项目记录和分析了（西）德国关于难民和庇护的辩论中迄今未定义的新教部分，这些辩论是价值观、利益和民主的冲突。它将显示新教如何评估难民的录取条件和接受程序，其伦理问题和争论线已经影响了东道国社会的辩论，以及新教如何影响难民和庇护政治的决定。该研究项目为以下方面提供了有价值的线索：新教对移民动机和难民观念的估计，他对难民等级和团结等级的处理，他的宗教和世俗论证，以及他对个人人权和共同福利之间冲突领域的平衡，以及新教自我概念，行动形式和宪政民主中的社会化形式。重点将放在新教关于人类尊严和人权的推理上，因此将放在一个新的交叉点上。时间重点在于，对应整个课题组的核心领域，现在在70年代和80年代。
