The Handbook of Islamic Sects and Movements offers a multinational study of Islam, its variants, influences, and neighbouring movements, from a multidisciplinary range of scholars. These chapters highlight the diversity of Islam, especially in its contemporary manifestations, as a religion of many communities, theologies, and ideologies. Over five sections—on Sunni, Shia, Sufi, fundamentalist, and fringe Islamic movements—the authors provide historical overviews, analyses, and in-depth studies of large and small Islamic and related groups from all around the world. The contents of this volume will be of interest to both newcomers to the study of Islam and established scholars of religion who wish to engage with the dynamic label of Islam and the many impactful movements of the Islamic world.

Islamischer Religionsunterricht hat inzwischen vielerorts Eingang in die deutschen Lehrpläne gefunden. Vor diesem Hintergrund untersucht Darjusch Bartsch das Phänomen korrelativer Theologie und Religionsdidaktik. Unter Einbeziehung von jüdischen und islamischen Quellen betrachtet er die ideengeschichtliche Genese des Korrelationsbegriffs in Theologie und Didaktik sowie dessen interreligiöse Verortung. Die interdisziplinär ausgerichtete Studie eröffnet damit nicht zuletzt Vorschläge zur Entwicklung weiterer korrelativer Methoden für die Theorie und Praxis des Islamischen Religionsunterrichts.

By any indicator, Indonesia, the fourth most populous nation on earth, is a development success story. Yet 20 years after a deep economic and political crisis, it is still in some respects an economy in transition. The country recovered from the 1997-98 crisis and navigated the path from authoritarian to democratic rule surprisingly quickly and smoothly. It survived the 2008-09 global financial crisis and the end of the China-driven commodity super boom in 2014 with little difficulty. It is now embarking on its fifth round of credible national elections in the democratic era. It is in the process of graduating to the upper middle-income ranks. But, as the 25 contributors to this comprehensive and compelling volume document, Indonesia also faces many daunting challenges -- how to achieve faster economic growth along with more attention to environment sustainability, how to achieve more equitable development outcomes, how to develop and nurture stronger institutional foundations, and much else.

In recent decades, traditional methods of philology and intellectual history, applied to the study of Islam and Muslim societies, have met with considerable criticism from rising generations of scholars who have turned to the social sciences, most notably anthropology and social history, for guidance. This change has been accompanied by the rise of new fields, studying, for example, Islam in Europe and Africa, and new topics, such as the role of gender. This collection surveys these transformations and others, taking stock of the field and showing new paths forward.

Perspectives and practices of couples in unconventional Muslim marriages.
Unconventional Muslim marriages have been topics of heated public debate. Around the globe, religious scholars, policy makers, political actors, media personalities, and women's activists discuss, promote, or reject unregistered, transnational, interreligious and other boundary-crossing marriages. Couples entering into such marriages, however, often have different concerns from those publicly discussed. Based on ethnographic research in Europe, the Middle East, North Africa and Asia, the chapters of this volume examine couples' motivations for, aspirations about, and abilities to enter into these marriages. The contributions show the diverse ways in which such marriages are concluded, and inquire into how they are performed, authorized or contested as Muslim marriages. These marriages may challenge existing ties of belonging and transform boundaries between religious and other communities, but they may also, and sometimes simultaneously, reproduce and solidify them.
Building on insights from different disciplines, both from the social sciences (anthropology, political science, gender and sexuality studies) and from the humanities (history, Islamic legal studies, religious studies), the authors address a wide range of controversial Muslim marriages (unregistered, interreligious, transnational, etc.), and include the views of religious scholars, state authorities, and political actors and activists, as well as the couples themselves, their families, and their wider social circle.

Die religiöse Sozialisation von muslimischen Kindern und Jugendlichen in ihren Familien stellt in Deutschland ein noch weitestgehend unerforschtes Themengebiet dar. Ausgehend von der Fragestellung, welchen Einfluss Moscheen, Kindertagesstätten und Schulen, aber auch die Peers, Medien und die Gesellschaft auf die religiöse Sozialisation von muslimischen Kindern haben, rückt Ayse Uygun-Altunbas erstmalig muslimische Familien ins Zentrum der Analyse und greift hierzu die Perspektive der Eltern auf. Die qualitative Analyse zeichnet eine differenzierte Typologie der religiös-muslimischen Erziehungsvorstellungen nach und präsentiert typspezifische Merkmale der Familienreligiosität, Vermittlungsformen der religiösen Erziehung sowie weitere sozialisationsrelevante Einflüsse. »Als großen Verdienst anzuerkennen ist, dass die Autorin durch die Interviews mit Eltern systematisch Daten zu zahlreichen Aspekten religiöser Sozialisation erschlossen hat. Dies macht die Lektüre insbesondere für Pädagoginnen und Pädagogen, die Kinder und Jugendliche aus türkischen Familien betreuen, für die eine religiöse Erziehung zentral ist, gewinnbringend.« Petra Bleisch, Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Bildungswissenschaften, 40/2 (2018) »Die vorliegende Dissertation kann eine Hilfe sein, die religiöse Sozialisation muslimischer Schüler besser zu verstehen.« Stefan Barz, Zeitschrift für Didaktik der Philosophie und Ethik, 1 (2018) Besprochen in: BZgA-InfoDienst Migration, 4 (2017) IDA-NRW, 3 (2017) Begegnungszentrum für aktive Gewaltlosigkeit, Rundbrief, 3 (2017) forum erwachsenenbildung, 3 (2019), Thomas Geisen

Burkas in Frankreich, Moscheebau in Köln, Minarette in der Schweiz - der öffentliche Diskurs über die Integration von Muslimen in Deutschland und Europa ist geprägt vom Konflikt zwischen Religionsfreiheit und der westlichen Trennung von Religion und Politik. Doch wie neutral muss der Staat hier eigentlich sein? Wie können die Errungenschaften der Aufklärung verteidigt werden, ohne dass das Recht auf Religionsausübung verletzt wird? Und welchen Stellenwert hat Religion in den modernen westlichen Gesellschaften noch? Diesen und weiteren Fragen gehen die Beiträge in diesem Band nach. Expertinnen und Experten aus den Bereichen der Islamwissenschaft, Politikwissenschaft, Rechtswissenschaft und Migrationsforschung beleuchten das Verhältnis von Staatlichkeit und Religion. »[Es liegt] ein Band vor, den man zur ersten Information oder als Nachschlagewerk für genaue Statistiken, Jahreszahlen und Paragraphen zur Hand nehmen wird.« Joachim Willems, Theologische Literaturzeitung, 137/12 (2012) Besprochen in: IDA-NRW, 4 (2011) Kulturation, 14 (2011), Thomas Heinrichs pw-portal.de, 1 (2012), Jan Achim Richter Josef Bordat, www.titel-magazin.de, 10.02.2012 www.lehrerbibliothek.de, 12 (2011), Dieter Bach diesseits, 99 (2012), Werner Schultz

Palimpsests of Themselves is an intervention in current discussions about the fate of philosophy in postclassical Islamic intellectual history. Asad Q. Ahmed uses as a case study the most advanced logic textbook of Muslim South Asia, The Ladder of the Sciences, presenting in English its first full translation and extended commentary. He offers detailed assessments of the technical contributions of the work, explores the social and institutional settings of the vast commentarial response it elicited, and develops a theory of the philosophical commentary that is internal to the tradition. These approaches to the commentarial text complicate presuppositions upon which questions of Islam's intellectual decline are erected. As such, Ahmed offers a unique and powerful opportunity to understand the transmission of knowledge across the Islamic world.

Ausgehend von den anhaltenden Debatten um das islamische Kopftuch in staatlichen Bildungseinrichtungen Deutschlands und Frankreichs analysiert Schirin Amir-Moazami die Logiken der Diskursproduktion über den Islam und bringt die Argumente der Kritiker mit den Stimmen Kopftuch tragender junger Musliminnen ins Gespräch. Die Studie zeichnet nach, wie die wachsende Partizipation sichtbarer Muslime, hier symbolisiert durch das Kopftuch, im dominanten Diskurs beider Länder Abwehrreaktionen provoziert und der Islam mehrheitlich als Gegenkategorie zu jeweils national geprägten Säkularitätskonzepten begriffen wird. Zugleich zeigt sie, wie die jungen Frauen in die Diskurstraditionen beider Länder eingebettet sind und sich in komplexen Aushandlungsprozessen engagieren. »Das Buch [ist] methodisch wegweisend: So schafft Amir-Moazami es gerade durch die Gegenüberstellung von Mikro- und Makroperspektive, differenzierte Erkenntnisse über die Kopftuchdebatten in Frankreich und Deutschland zu gewinnen, hinter die die zukünftige Forschung nicht mehr zurückfallen sollte.« Miriam Schader, Soziologische Revue, 31 (2008) Besprochen in: WDR 5, 08.07.2007, Semiran Kaya Zeitschrift für Politikwissenschaft-Bibliografie, 4 (2007) www.denkladen.de, 1 (2008)
