Abstract: In Austria and Germany, one of the more recent political shifts has been a swing towards the extreme right (AfD, ‘Identitäre’), accompanied by a change in what is seen as acceptable in language. Right-wing movements have come more into the open, straddling the fence around what is forbidden under Austrian and German law. Symbols forbidden by laws designed to prevent a reproduction of NSDAP institutions and ideology can regularly be seen in public spaces. This paper presents an initiative triggered by one of these open representations of Nazi ideology in November 2016, when two men flew a children’s kite in Salzburg city-centre. The kite was decorated with 4 different Nazi symbols. Using Instagram, the initiative maps such symbols collected by the public and extracts location information for representation in ArcGIS-Online. We show how this initiative can contribute to the formation of the political subject and discuss teaching methods, the technical development of the project, and initial results. Keywords: Geography education; citizenship education; right-wing extremism, geomedia Published Online: 2017/12/13 11:55:53 Object Identifier: 0xc1aa5576 0x00373573 Rights:https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/
GI_Forum publishes high quality original research across the transdisciplinary field of Geographic Information Science (GIScience). The journal provides a platform for dialogue among GI-Scientists and educators, technologists and critical thinkers in an ongoing effort to advance the field and ultimately contribute to the creation of an informed GISociety. Submissions concentrate on innovation in education, science, methodology and technologies in the spatial domain and their role towards a more just, ethical and sustainable science and society. GI_Forum implements the policy of open access publication after a double-blind peer review process through a highly international team of seasoned scientists for quality assurance. Special emphasis is put on actively supporting young scientists through formative reviews of their submissions. Only English language contributions are published.
