Die amtliche Statistik etablierte sich im 19. Jahrhundert als essentielle Wissenstechnik moderner Staatlichkeit: Einerseits konstitutierte sie das Regierungs-Objekt, die "Bevölkerung", über die sie andererseits ein umfangreiches Regierungs-Wissen bereit stellte. Mit der statistischen Erfassung und Präsentation wurden die politischen Probleme der Armut, der Delinquenz und der Krankheit als Massenphänomene erkennbar, die eine rational abgesicherte gouvernementalistische Intervention erreichten. Zugleich mussten die Statistiker aber auch die individualistischen und politischen Grenzen ihres Zugriffs auf das Leben der Menschen erkennen.

Prostitution wird häufig als moralisches oder rechtliches Problem diskutiert. Sie ist aber auch eine Herausforderung für die (lokale) Verwaltung: Polizisten bekämpfen Menschenhandel, Gesundheitsämter fürchten um die öffentliche Hygiene, Ordnungsbehörden mahnen Kunden auf dem Straßenstrich ab, Bauämter überwachen die Einrichtung von Bordellen, Vereine betreiben Aufklärung und HIV-Prävention. Auf welches Wissen sie dabei zurückgreifen und wie sie die Subjekte ihres Tuns herstellen - das zeigt diese staatsethnografische Studie erstmals am Beispiel deutscher, polnischer und tschechischer Kommunen.

This book summarises and critiques Extinction Rebellion (XR) as a social movement organisation, engaging with key issues surrounding its analysis, strategy and tactics. The authors suggest that XR have an underdeveloped and apolitical view of the kind of change necessary to address climate change, and suggest that while this enables the building of broad movements, it is also an obstacle to achieving the systemic change that they are aiming for. The book analyses different forms of protest and the role of civil disobedience in their respective success or failure; democratic demands and practices; and activist engagement with the political economy of climate change. It engages with a range of theoretical perspectives that address law-breaking in protest and participatory forms of democracy including liberal political theory; anarchism and forms of historical materialism, and will be of interest to students and scholars across politics, international relations, sociology, policy studies and geography, as well as those interested in climate change politics and activism. Oscar Berglund is Lecturer in International Public and Social Policy at the University of Bristol, UK. Daniel Schmidt is a MSc graduate in Public Policy from the University of Bristol, UK.
