The project investigates social-scientific and missionary communities of practice in the German Empire that constructed analogies 1) between the “social question” in the metropole (and metropolitan comparisons of “bourgeois” vs. “workers”) and the “native question” in the colonies (and colonial comparisons of “Germans” and “natives”); and 2) between the “Kulturkampf” in the metropole (and metropolitan comparisons between “Protestantism” and “Catholicism”) and the religious situation in the colonies (and colonial comparisons between “European Christendom” and “Islam”). Building on Bourdieu’s theory of state-formation, the project hypothesizes that the confounding of these comparisons “departicularized” a bourgeois ideal of the good life and a Protestant norm of religious subjectivity as both became conflated with Germanness as such via contrasts to a “colonial other.”

该项目调查了德意志帝国的社会科学和传教士实践社区，这些社区在大都市的“社会问题”（以及“资产阶级”与“工人”的大都市比较）和大都市的“本土问题”之间构建了类比1）殖民地（以及“德国人”和“当地人”的殖民比较）；2）大都市的“文化斗争”（以及大都市之间的比较）以布迪厄的国家形成理论为基础，该项目的热衷者认为，这些比较的混杂“去具体化”了资产阶级的美好生活理想和新教的宗教主体性规范，因为两者通过与“殖民他者”的对比而与德国性混为一谈。 ”。
