Competition: Competitive Figurations and their Cultural Logics

科学网络分析了在一个以追求为导向的现代社会的背景下，竞争的各种复杂的文化层面。该网络的一个中心目标是讨论文化人类学和跨学科的竞争逻辑，实践和话语在不同的社会领域的观点。因此，该网络的成员提出了微观层面的案例研究以及更系统的理论思考和观点。竞争结构和意识形态的日益增长的影响力将通过解构主义方法进行批判性分析。网络倾向于理解这些竞争结构是如何出现的，它们是如何合法化和普及的，最终它们是如何影响生活世界和日常文化的。因此，网络使用诺伯特·埃利亚斯的形象化概念来分析构成和塑造竞争领域的各种行为者和行为者群体。该网络使用比较分析作为启发性工具。网络活动的主要实质性成果将是一份方案出版物。

The scientific network analyzes the various and complex cultural dimensions of competition in the context of a late modern achievement-oriented society. A central goal of the network is to discuss cultural anthropological and interdisciplinary perspectives on competitive logics, practices and discourses in different social fields. Members of the network therefore present case studies on a micro level as well as more systematic and theoretical reflections and perspectives. The growing influence of competitive structures and ideologies will be critically analyzed by deconstructivist approaches. The network tends to understand how these competitive structures emerge, how they are legitimized and popularized, and finally how they influence life worlds and everyday culture. Therefore the network uses Norbert Elias concept of figuration in order to analyze the various actors and groups of actors who constitute and shape competitive fields. The network uses comparative analysis as a heuristic tool. The main material outcome of the network activities will be a programmatic publication.
