Description of the Organization

The Duisburg Institute for Linguistics and Social Science (Duisburger Institut für Sprach- und Sozialforschung, DISS) has been working in the field of exclusion processes in society for more than 15 years. Its work aims at grasping social problems, analysing their sources and effects. Analyses of media politics and every-day discourse are published regularly in a special edition. DISS also distributes a magazine on selected controversial issues of every-day political life twice a year complementing two annual workshops. Its extensive archive on politics, history and right-wing extremism provides information for scientists, students and journalists working in the field of anti-discrimination.
