Radicalisation
Foundations and mechanisms of Islamophobia in the West. Islamophobia as a Form of Radicalisation discusses the scope and fragmented boundaries of Islamophobia as a concept and a sociopolitical reality. The fifteen chapters of this collection cover and connect interdisciplinary research, media content analysis, media discourse analysis, ethnographic research, intersectoral advocacy work, and action research conducted in Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Poland, Portugal, and Spain. Confronted with an Islamophobia that is growing as a symptom of broader societal malaise in the West, a resistance against it is also arising. It is now a question of better understanding the foundations and mechanisms of this metasolidarity and resistance. Islamophobia as a Form of Radicalisation offers recommendations for urgent consideration by Muslim citizens of Canada and Europe, media professionals, civil society and academic stakeholders, policymakers at the municipal, provincial and federal levels.
Radicalisation
Radicalisation is a topical and a much-discussed concept in current European societies. Its use in policy and societal discourses, such as media coverage and educational contexts, is very sensitive. This thought-provoking collection of essays critically addresses the topic of radicalisation from different angles, combining discipline-specific insights from the fields of sociology, philosophy, history, religious studies, and media studies, with new empirical data. The authors step away from readily available explanations and rethink the notion of 'the radical'. Rather than merely focusing on individuals or ideologies, they advocate for a contextual perspective that allows to consider the complex interaction between individuals, groups, and institutions, both at a national and international level. Radicalisation: A Marginal Phenomenon, or a Mirror to Society? provides the reader not only with much-needed knowledge of the complex nature of the concept of radicalisation, but also offers insights into the various ways radicalisation processes can be triggered, prevented, or addressed.

Geographies of Asylum in Europe and the Role of European Localities
This open access book describes how the numerous arrivals of asylum seekers since 2015 shaped reception and integration processes in Europe. It addresses the structuration of asylum and reception systems, and spaces and places of reception on European, national, regional and local level. It also analyses perceptions and discourses on asylum and refugees, their evolvement and the consequences for policy development. Furthermore, it examines practices and policy developments in the field of refugee reception and integration. The volume shows and explains a variety of refugee reception and integration strategies and practices as specific outcome of multilevel governance processes in Europe. By addressing and contextualizing those multiple experiences of asylum seeker reception, the book is a valuable contribution to the literature on migration and integration, societal development and political culture in Europe.
The Palgrave Handbook of History and Social Studies Education
This Handbook presents an international collection of essays examining history education past and present. Framing recent curriculum reforms in Canada and in the United States in light of a century-long debate between the relationship between theory and practice, this collection contextualizes the debate by exploring the evolution of history and social studies education within their state or national contexts. With contributions ranging from Canada, Finland, New Zealand, Sweden, the Netherlands, the Republic of South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States, chapters illuminate the ways in which curriculum theorists and academic researchers are working with curriculum developers and educators to translate and refine notions of historical thinking or inquiry as well as pedagogical practice.
Radicalization in Theory and Practice
Radicalization is a major challenge of contemporary global security. It conjures up images of violent ideologies, “homegrown” terrorists and jihad in both the academic sphere and among security and defense experts. While the first instances of religious radicalization were initially limited to second-generation Muslim immigrants, significant changes are currently impacting this phenomenon. Technology is said to amplify the dissemination of radicalism, though there remains uncertainty as to the exact weight of technology on radical behaviors. Moreover, far from being restricted to young men of Muslim heritage suffering from a feeling of social relegation, radicalism concerns a significant...
WestEnd 1/2020: Verschwiegene Gewalt
In Anlehnung an die berühmte »Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung« (1932 – 1941) verfolgt auch ihre seit 2004 halbjährlich erscheinende Nachfolgerin »WestEnd« den Anspruch einer kritischen Gesellschaftsanalyse. Zur Veröffentlichung kommen Aufsätze und Essays aus Soziologie, Philosophie, politischer Theorie, Ästhetik, Geschichte, Entwicklungspsychologie, Rechtswissenschaft und politischer Ökonomie. Neben den Rubriken »Studien« und »Eingriffe« behandelt jedes Heft ein Schwerpunktthema. Während terroristische Anschläge, Amokläufe oder Polizeigewalt ein hohes Maß an öffentlicher Aufmerksamkeit erfahren, bleiben andere Gewaltformen ohne nennenswerte Resonanz − vor allem gemess...
La société morale
Cet ouvrage collectif construit à partir des conférences données dans le cadre du XXIe Congrès de l’AISLF privilégie deux entrées principales : d’abord, la manière dont les sciences sociales se saisissent de la question morale sous plusieurs angles ; ensuite, le rôle des analyses en termes d’économies morales. La troisième partie de l’ouvrage rend hommage à la sociologie de la Tunisie.
Histoires nationales et narrations minoritaires
The book examines the new international challenges facing history teaching through the prism of cultural diversity.
Putting knowledge(s) into perspective?
Dass Schulbücher und andere Bildungsmedien verschiedene Perspektiven abbilden und Lernende zu eigener Meinungsbildung befähigen sollen, ist heute breiter wissenschaftlicher sowie schul- und verlagspraktischer Konsens. Doch wie genau ist Multiperspektivität zu erreichen? Und wo liegen ihre Grenzen? Der Sammelband arbeitet den Stand der Forschung zu Bildungsmedien und (Multi-)Perspektivität auf und führt unterschiedliche (trans-)disziplinäre und transnationale Blickwinkel zusammen. Die Beiträge beleuchten Perspektiven und (Multi-)Perspektivität in verschiedenen aktuellen thematischen Zusammenhängen und gesellschaftlichen Kontexten und hinterfragen kritisch, wie Wissen konstruiert und vermittelt wird und wie und ob unterschiedliche Perspektiven Eingang in Bildungsmedien finden.
Essays on Theology and Religious Studies
The annual collection of scientific articles of the Brussels Theological Faculty partly covers all current research areas. Theology and the study of religion are under pressure from increasing polarization and radicalization. The Faculty of Theology in Brussels has both feet firmly planted on the world stage and offers a number of articles on topical themes in this volume. In this volume, which is an anniversary issue since we face the 20 the volume, we pay attention to current themes such as decolonization and theology, as well as to cultural-historical movements and trends. In an annual collection of scholarly articles from a Protestant Theological Faculty, fundamental research of the Bible should not be missing. Anyone interested in biblical sciences can also take advantage of this collection. We hope to offer the reader insight and an engaging reading experience.
