In the future I will offer some full papers on the blog, as long as they are not firmly rooted in the social sciences and may be primarly interesting people outside the academia.
They will all be under creative commons and I invite everybody to read and cite them. Enjoy them and feel free to provide feedback!

The paper of Martina and I is to befound on pages 91 to 96 and I'm proud of the short chapter detailing why young and female journalists have to fight against structural challanges in the Austrian journalistic field.
The longer, follow up article "Jung, weiblich, Journalistin: Endstation Prekariat?" which was written by the same team over the last few month will be published in the "Momentum Quarterly" journal soon.

Batman and Identity...
Claiming
the cowl – Dick Grayson’s Batman as seen by the online community ‘Scans_daily’
Abstract
Abstract
To fight his war on crime Bruce Wayne created the
identity of Batman, but decades of publication history led to several other
characters donning the legendary cape and cowl. The latest of those was Dick
Grayson, once the first Robin and later Nightwing, who claimed the Batman’s
mask in 2009, after his predecessor disappeared and writer Grant Morrison
explored the idea if Batman can truly be more than the man behind the cowl.
But how did the fans react to this change? A comprehensive
analysis, based on a sample of thematically relevant comments and postings
written during Grayson’s time as Batman at the webpage of the comic book fan
community ‘Scans_daily’ tries to both answer this question, as well as identify
distinctive groups of fans reacting especially strong to the changes in the
Batmen’s world.
