Abstract

Ist Assimilation ein>>Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit<<(Erdogan) oder droht sich Deutschland ohne sie abzuschaffen (Sarrazin)? Den hitzigen Debatten über Assimilation, Integration und Diversität liegt die Frage zugrunde, ob politische, soziale und kulturelle Integration auf kultureller Einheit oder auf Pluralität begründet werden kann und sollte. Der Band stellt diese Konzepte nach neuestem Forschungsstand vor. Analysen zu verschiedenen Schauplätzen der Debatte - von der Deutschen Islamkonferenz über Verhandlungen von Assimilation und Diversität in Literatur und Film bis zum Terrorismus in England - und historische Perspektiven zeigen, wie die Integrationsfrage die Selbstdefinition moderner Gesellschaften in ihrem Kern trifft.

Abstract

At a time when fundamentalism is on the rise, traditional religions are in decline and postmodernity has challenged any system that claims to be all-defining, young people have left their traditional places of worship and set up their own, in clubs, at festivals and within music culture. Pop Cults investigates the ways in which popular music and its surrounding culture have become a primary site for the location of meaning, belief and identity. It provides an introduction to the history of the interactions of vernacular music and religion, and the role of music in religious culture. Rupert Til

Abstract

Al-Qaida and Islamic State continue to captivate the world with their extreme violence. While much attention has been given to the operations and doctrines of jihadi groups, this is the first book to explore their culture. Using a wealth of primary sources, the authors examine what goes on inside these organizations and what daily life is like for the foot-soldiers. They show that Islamist militants have a rich aesthetic culture and do much more than fight and train. Life in a jihadi group is in fact filled with poetry and music, and fighters spend time on surprising things like dream interpretation and weeping. Readers will discover an entirely new perspective on radical Islamists: that despite their reputation as macho men, they value humility, artistic sensitivity, and displays of emotion. Cultural practices are essential for understanding the jihadi worldview and may shed important new light on decision-making and recruitment processes in extremist groups. This original book will interest anyone in academia, government, or the general public who is intrigued by the appeal and resilience of the jihadi movement.
