Withdrawing from volunteering. A qualitative study based on the example of subjects from immigrant families working in charity organisations.

随着公众认为民间社会的重要性上升，志愿服务与社会参与越来越相关。与此同时，社会弱势群体和少数群体在志愿者中的代表性不足。虽然已经有大量关于开始和继续志愿服务的个人动机的研究，但提交的研究项目的目的是重建导致人们停止志愿服务的流程。它将以移民家庭中停止在德国主流慈善组织做志愿者的受试者为例，研究这一过程中社会差异的重要性。这一步骤被视为进入志愿服务过程的背景，也是该过程的结束。将对进入和停止志愿服务的过程进行研究；这些过程被视为现实，是在主流组织的领域和有兴趣参与的人之间的互动中社会构建的。因此，停止志愿服务的个人参与者的观点将与实地的观点相联系。前者将通过主题叙述性访谈确定，后者将通过小组讨论的方式确定。

With the publically postulated rise in the importance of civil society, volunteering is becoming increasingly relevant to social participation. At the same time, socially disadvantaged groups and minorities are under-represented among volunteers. While there is a wealth of research into individual motives for starting and continuing volunteering, the aim of the submitted research project is to reconstruct the processes leading people to stop volunteering. It will study the significance of social differences during this process based on the example of subjects from immigrant families who have stopped volunteering at mainstream German charity organisations. This step is seen in the context of, and as the end of, a process of entering into volunteering. Research will be carried out into processes of entering into and stopping volunteering; processes seen as a reality which is socially constructed during interaction between the field of the mainstream organisation and the person interested in participating. For this reason, the perspective of the individual participant who stops volunteering will be linked to the perspective of the field. The former will be ascertained using themed narrative interviews and the latter by means of group discussions.
