Through biographical narratives, Claiming Home traces how queer migrant women living in Switzerland navigate often contradictory perspectives on sexuality, gender, and nation. Situated between heteronormative and racialized stereotypes of migrant women on the one hand, and the implicitly white figure of the lesbian on the other, queer migrant women are often rendered ›impossible subjects.‹ Claiming Home maps how they negotiate conflicting loyalties in this field and how they, in their own way, claim a sense of belonging and home.

Die Digitalisierung hat ein grosses Potenzial, Grund- und Menschenrechte in ganz unterschiedlichen Lebensbereichen zu stärken. Gleichzeitig besteht die Gefahr, dass digitale Technologien zu neuen oder verschärften Formen von Grund- und Menschenrechtsverletzungen führen. Die vorliegende Publikation, herausgegeben vom Schweizerischen Kompetenzzentrum für Menschenrechte (SKMR), gibt einen Überblick, wie sich digitale Technologien im Alltag auf die Grund- und Menschenrechte auswirken. In einem ersten Teil behandelt sie wichtige neue Technologien und Anwendungen sowie die relevanten rechtlichen Grundlagen. In einem zweiten Teil erläutern die Autorinnen anhand von ausgewählten Fallbeispielen, welche Grund- und Menschenrechte bei der Entwicklung und Anwendung von digitalen Technologien betroffen sind. Das Buch leistet damit einen Beitrag zur Diskussion, wie Grund- und Menschenrechte und Digitalisierung miteinander vereinbar sind. ; La numérisation peut devenir une précieuse alliée des droits fondamentaux et des droits humains dans les domaines les plus divers, mais les technologies numériques sont aussi susceptibles d'aggraver les violations de ces droits et d'en faire émerger de nouvelles. Le présent guide, publié par le Centre suisse de compétence pour les droits humains (CSDH), fait un tour d'horizon des effets au quotidien de la numérisation sur les droits fondamentaux et les droits humains. Dans la première partie, les auteures présentent les principales technologies et leurs applications ainsi que les bases légales en la matière. Dans la seconde, elles expliquent, à l'aide de cas concrets, en quoi les droits fondamentaux et les droits humains sont touchés par l'évolution et les applications des technologies numériques. Un ouvrage qui vient nourrir le débat sur la manière de concilier la numérisation et nos droits.
