About the project
The project FaWeRa - Familial transmission of coping strategies with racism under the direction of Prof. Dr. Emra Ilgün-Birhimeoğlu examines existing coping strategies of families with racism. This is done in particular with a view to the intergenerational transmission of these strategies.
Aims of the project
The aim is to uncover family resources, patterns of action and communication as well as factors that enable or hinder meaningful and empowering coping strategies. It is assumed that migrantized and racially marked families are confronted with racism across several generations and places of life and develop corresponding strategies for dealing with it. The study aims to work out the extent to which these are passed on and the extent to which they are accepted, rejected and/or transformed by the following generation. To this end, interviews will be conducted with representatives of three generations of a family (grandparents, parents, child) using the qualitative survey method of the family interview (Schmitt 2024). The results are expected to provide new and further scientific insights into the familial transmission of strategies for dealing with racism.
