Moralization, Emotionalization, Polarization

The project "Moralisierung, Emotionalisierung, Polarisierung. Ein bürgerwissenschaftliches Reallabor mit Alltagsexperten" (Moralization, Emotionalization, Polarization. A civic science real laboratory for everyday life experts) disseminates the results of the research project. A particular focus lies on adressing heterogeneous social milieus.

For this purpose, we aimed at bringing together non-academic and academic participants. Several workshops have been conducted with different cooperation partners.
