Research topic at the Forschungskolleg Humanwissenschaften:
»A Study of Religion and Media – Muslim Adolescence in Post-Secular Germany«

Project outline:
This research project is designed to be an integral part of the largescale enterprise titles ›Religious Positionality/Positioning› (RelPos), by contributing to it with the inquiry of the modalities and constellations of religious positionality in Islam. The idea is to look into ways in which the divide between Islam and the West is maintained through divisive rhetoric and to ultimately find a method to overcome it. We want to analyze the discourse in different kinds of media, largely received and created by young adults, in order to find out how they perceive and perpetuate the allegedly insurmountable divide between secular and religious values. (Rida Inam)
