Tertium Comparationis: Issue 1/2024, 30. Volume Bildungsbiografische Verhandlungen von Zugehörigkeit: Empirische Fallrekonstruktion und forschungsprogrammatische Reflexionen am Beispiel einer Jugendlichen einer Deutschen Auslandsschule

The article focuses on biographical negotiations of belonging of young people at a German School Abroad and brings together three heuristic lines: Reflections on the concept of the transnational educational space, on biographies as sites of transnational spaces in the context of biographical work, as well as perspectives of a transnationally oriented childhood and youth research. By means of a case reconstruction of a biographical-narrative interview with an adolescent of a German School Abroad, the authors sound out the empirical as well as methodological-research programmatic potential of research interested in constructions of belonging (at German Schools Abroad).
