The research focus of Deputy Prof. Dr. Simona Szakács-Behling, Dr. Aysun Doğmuş, Dr. Ellen Kollender, M.A. Lisa M. Rosen and Giulia Navab-Daneshmand and Diana Voß in the area of administration – are issues of intercultural as well as international and comparative education research. In particular, we are concerned with the dynamics of transnationalization, internationalization and Europeanization in and of school(ing) and education, as well as the social consequences of pluralization, differentiation and manifold cross-border mobilities that affect, and are in turn affected by, the life-worlds of all those involved in education.

In this context, we are interested, for example, in

• the difussion of transnational norms in, and through, education,
• the proliferation of internationally oriented school typologies and educational contents,
• transnational biographies and educational trajectories,
• the meaning of globality, internationality and diversity in variously privileged schooling contexts,
• manifestations of racism, right-wing extremism and discrimination in society and state (educational) institutions,
• the role of the education system in the reproduction and modification of social inequality,
• theories and concepts of education in and for the (post-)migration society,
• anti-discrimination politics and policies, its implementation in educational organisations and discrimination-critical qualification and professionalisation of teachers and other educationists,
• critique and further development of methodological and methodological approaches in intercultural and comparative educational research.
