Anfang der 70er Jahre entstand in den USA ein Bildungsmodell, das die bisherige Hochschullandschaft dieses Landes entscheidend ergänzen sollte. Indigen geleitete Hochschulen, sog. Tribal Colleges bieten seither der kleinsten Minorität in den USA, American Indians, die Möglichkeit einer kulturell relevanten Hochschulbildung. Aufgrund ihrer dualen Stuktur die sowohl Merkmale indigener als auch westlich geprägter Wissenssysteme aufweist, ist eine Untersuchung mit Blick auf die Prozesse des Austausches, der Abgrenzung und der Transformationen besonders ergiebig. Im Folgenden werden sie am Beispiel einer konkreten tribalen Universität aufgezeigt und erklärt. / Tribal Colleges in the US started to evolve in the 1970s as a response to many decades of ineffective and unsuccessful ethnocentric education efforts by the federal government and religious institutions. Over a comparatively short period of time they developed into institutions of higher learning that fulfill a crucial role in Native American students’ educational attainment and similarly play a significant role in tribal community development. The Tribal College model combines aspects of western higher education with traditional American Indian forms of knowledge and is therefore particularly suited for a close examination of the processes of exchange, separation and transformation that are negotiated on a regular basis. In the following article, crucial processes will be highlighted and analyzed.

Jede außergewöhnliche Geschichte beginnt mit Kreativität, Mut und Freiheit. Da braucht es Menschen, die Neuartiges kreieren sowie Menschen, die die Chance erkennen, den Weg frei zu machen und sich beteiligen. Eine solche erfreuliche Konstellation führte an der Sächsischen Landesbibliothek – Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Dresden (SLUB) im letzten Jahr erstmalig zum europäischen Personalaustausch. Zwei Musikbibliothekare aus London und Dresden wagten Neuland: für mehrere Wochen tauschten sie ihren Dienst- und Lebensort, um in den anderen Bibliotheken mitzuarbeiten, sich fachlich sowie sprachlich weiterzuentwickeln und erfuhren dabei vielfältige Unterstützung.

Abstract in English Inclusion is a state where the opportunity to understand everything is given naturally. In order to support this idea as well as simply be authentic in this academic work in Inclusion Studies, the following part is an English summary of my Bachelor thesis. Using the English language – understood and spoken by a huge number of today's world population – I would like interested people who do not know German to find an access to the subject of my work. Exchange of competences and culture of relationship – abstract “Exchange of competences as a basis for an inclusive culture of relationship” is the title of my Bachelor Thesis. It means, that interpersonal exchange of abilities and understandings can be a starting point for relationships that are realised and experienced in a way that can be called inclusive (referring to “inclusion”). This work focusses especially on relationships between so-called clients and pedagogues. The thesis consists of four textual chapters from A to D. Part A describes my motivation for this work which is personal experience and presents the leading question – Does a mutual exchange of competences effect an inclusive relationship culture? – and the hypothesis: If competences are exchanged, the relationship 'clientel ⇆ pedagogue' is (on both sides) positively perceived – this feeling and in consequence the relationship itself are giving inclusivity and sustainable effectiveness to the growing process taking place on both sides. Furthermore, the methodology is described in the first chapter. The next chapter is about introducing definitions in order to ensure that the readers will fully understand the key terms and topics which are: relationships; culture and cultures; exchange and balance; competences, resources, potentials; communication; inclusion; science. Chapter C refers to two different kinds of sources in order to support and prove the hypothesis as well as to illustrate the concept. The first part of this third chapter is dealing with models from social sciences like “inclusive learning culture” (A. Zimpel 2012), “cybernEthics” (H. von Foerster 1993), hermeneutics (Joedecke 2013), Empowerment (W. Stark), Children's and Human Rights (J. Korczak; United Nations) and the Cultural-historical psychology (L. S. Vygotsky, A. N. Leontev, A. R. Luria). These concepts are compared and woven together – to be illustrated by authentic examples in the chapter's second part. I have prepared ten written surveys in a narrative style. These interviews’ subjects have been asked to talk about living in a different cultural surrounding that was at first “different” and “new” for them: they were to tell which perceptions and emotions they had? (What helped them to establish relationships to people there? How was it to perform pedagogical tasks as a “not-yet-speaking” person?) In chapter D the connections between all sources mentioned above in form are summed up. In addition, a metaphor is also created, which is called the “cultural bag”: representing the mutual growing process surrounded by the inclusive relationship culture through which the individuals’ competences could expand, the “bag of culture” is a form of container and at the same time transportable – so each part of the relationship can now individually take and use respectively apply in any new situation.
