    Editorial: Volume 1, Issue 1
    (Weizenbaum Institute, 2021) Emmer, Martin; Krasnova, Hanna; Krzywdzinski, Martin; Metzger, Axel; Schimmler, Sonja; Ulbricht, Lena; Neuberger, Christoph
    The Weizenbaum Journal of the Digital Society is an open access journal and could not function any other way, because we see digitalization as a process that changes traditional forms of communication and cooperation, which raises the questions of control of data, information and knowledge anew. We look forward to contributions about the conditions, forms and consequences of the digitalization of society and its sub-sectors such as politics, business, science, labor, the public, civil society, law and culture. The digitalization of society has many facets: the disruptive transformation of the world of work, radical changes in the economic and innovation systems, new forms of learning and the restructuring of educational systems, the transformation of public space through digital media and platforms, changes in the way democracies function, massive challenges for the legal system and the planning and design of technical infrastructures. In light of these developments, the question arises as to how social actors can shape the digital transformation while safeguarding the foundations for individual and societal self-determination.

    Information seeking and communication during forced migration
    (Weizenbaum Institute, 2020) Emmer, Martin; Kunst, Marlene; Richter, Carola
    The recent refugee movements to Europe occur in the digital age. While there is a common perception that 'every refugee carries a smartphone', research on this new phenomenon is limited. To fill this academic gap, we have conducted a representative survey of more than 400 refugees living in Berlin which provides insight into the use of digital media in preparation for and during forced migration. We also asked whether digital media shaped images of and expectations about the refugees' target country Germany. The data confirm that digital media are important tools for refugees but also show that refugees are not a homogenous group and that usage patterns depend on regional origins. Moreover, we found that refugees who frequently accessed the Internet before they fled were better informed than others. Whereas Internet use also contributed to a positively-biased perception of Germany, the respective effect of traditional media use was stronger.

    Resilience of Public Spheres in a Global Health Crisis
    (Weizenbaum Institute, 2020) Trenz, Hans-Jörg; Heft, Annett; Vaughan, Michael; Pfetsch, Barbara
    The Covid-19 pandemic disrupted “normal” modes of public sphere functioning and activated an experimental mode of coping, reinventing forms of publicness and communicative exchanges. We conceptualize the social responses triggered by the crisis as particular forms of public sphere resilience and assess the role of digitalisation and digital spaces in the emergence of distinct modes and dynamics of resilience. Four areas of enhanced public sphere experimentation are the basis of our conceptualisation: political consumerism, digital modes of solidarity, political protest mobilisation, and news consumption. We discuss overarching features of public sphere resilience across societal sub-spheres and highlight the dynamics and hybridities which structure the emerging public spaces. Resilience practices are accompanied by dynamics of politicisation and depoliticisation coupled with shifting boundaries of publicness and privateness. Our observations likewise reveal the dynamic interplay between resilience and resistance.

    The Digital Constellation
    (Weizenbaum Institute, 2020) Berg, Sebastian; Rakowski, Niklas; Thiel, Thorsten
    The emergence of the digital society has become one of the most pressing research topics in social science. So far, political science has been at the margins of the debate because it has been restricted by a rather narrow focus on networked communications. The paper attempts to change this by presenting a more encompassing way to address digitalisation from within political science. After briefly criticising the development of the research in political science the paper reconstructs at length some of the most popular conceptualisations in neighbouring disciplines. While we highlight the commonalities and strengths of those approaches in theorising digitalisation, we criticise their rather derivative understanding of democratic practices and the political as such. We go on to propose a modified understanding - which we term the "digital constellation" - that looks at the changing shape of democracy by developing a much more nuanced understanding of the interplay between societies and technologies. Finally, we illustrate the argument in an exemplary analysis of the changes occurring in political representation in the context of digitalisation.

    The Selective Catalyst: Internet use as a mediator of citizenship norms' effects on political participation
    (Weizenbaum Institute, 2019) Leißner, Laura; Valentim, Antonio; Porten-Cheé, Pablo; Emmer, Martin
    We test the mediating effect of media use on the effects of citizenship norms - shared ideas of what a good citizen is - on political participation. We do so by comparing France and Finland, two countries with distinct media trust levels. Results support the notion that Internet use works as a selective catalyst of political participation, as it is enhanced merely by engaged citizenship norms but not by dutiful citizenship norms. Within the nexus of citizenship norms, media use, and political participation, this article contributes to a better understanding of the normative premises for the Internet use to promote political engagement within differing media contexts.

    Weizenbaum Report 2019: Politische Partizipation in Deutschland
    (Weizenbaum Institute, 2020) Schaetz, Nadja; Leißner, Laura; Porten-Cheé, Pablo; Emmer, Martin; Strippel, Christian
    **Deutsch** Der Weizenbaum Report ist eine jährlich erscheinende Publikation zur politischen Partizipation in Deutschland. Er stellt Befunde der bevölkerungsrepräsentativen Befragung der Forschungseinheit Weizenbaum Panel vor, die seit 2019 durchgeführt wird. Im Zentrum steht die Untersuchung verschiedener Formen politischer Partizipation im Zeitverlauf und ihre Entwicklung unter Digitalisierungsbedingungen. Die erste Welle aus dem Jahr 2019 untersuchte digitale Partizipationsformen, Bürgernormen und den Umgang mit Hass im Netz. Die Ergebnisse geben Einblick in Verhalten und Meinungen der deutschen Gesellschaft mit besonderem Fokus auf traditionelle vs. „vernetzte“ Bürgernormen.

Im Zentrum steht die Untersuchung verschiedener Formen politischer Partizipation im Zeitverlauf und ihre Entwicklung unter Digitalisierungsbedingungen. Die zweite Welle aus dem Jahr 2020 legte einen Schwerpunkt auf demokratische Partizipationsformen und ihre gesellschaftliche Verteilungen im Lichte der COVID-19-Pandemie. Die Ergebnisse deuten eine insgesamt stabile demokratische Beteiligung während der Pandemie an, aber zeigen auch soziale Klüfte vor allem in der digitalen Partizipation auf.

    Weizenbaum Report 2022: Politische Partizipation in Deutschland
    (Weizenbaum Institute, 2022) Heger, Katharina; Leißner, Laura; Emmer, Martin; Strippel, Christian
    **Deutsch** Der Weizenbaum Report ist eine jährlich erscheinende Publikation zur politischen Partizipation in Deutschland. Er stellt Befunde der bevölkerungsrepräsentativen Befragung der Forschungseinheit Weizenbaum Panel vor, die seit 2019 durchgeführt wird. Im Zentrum steht die Untersuchung verschiedener Formen politischer Partizipation im Zeitverlauf und ihre Entwicklung unter Digitalisierungsbedingungen. Die dritte Welle aus dem Jahr 2021 untersuchte diesmal neben digitaler Partizipation insbesondere auch feministische Einstellungen und politische Geschlechternormen. Die Ergebnisse geben Aufschluss über Ansichten der deutschen Gesellschaft zu Geschlechterungleichheiten in der politischen Partizipation, über demokratisches Vertrauen im Kontext der Pandemie und die Wahrnehmung von Hass und Desinformation im Netz.
