This paper deals with a Facebook-group named Malaysia-News. This group was founded in August 2019 and saw a rapid increase in members, especially in Southeast Asia. The analysis of the development of this group is based on data from Facebook and concerns the expansion of membership and the motivation to join. It shows that membership increased significantly after incisive events took place in Malaysia in early 2020 and that users are primarily looking for trustworthy information. (ASEAS/GIGA)

"Der Artikel behandelt die Notwendigkeit stärkerer Internationalisierung vor dem speziellen Hintergrund der EG-Debatte. Ein Beitritt Österreichs zur EG würde diese Anforderungen einerseits akzentuieren (nicht erst grundsätzlich aufwerfen) und andererseits Chancen für einen qualitativen und quantitativen Entwicklungsschub bieten. Allerdings ist damit eine tiefgreifende Umgestaltung der sozialwissenschaftlichen 'Forschungslandschaft' verbunden." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)
