Social polarisation and perceived threats as drivers of radicalisation and co-radicalisation among young people and post-adolescents
This project investigates empirically recognised social aspects of a spiral of radicalisation that have not yet been considered together in context and will develop preventative measures for the education sector based on its findings. The central research question behind this cooperation project, involving institutions in Duisburg, Leipzig, Osnabrück and Braunschweig, asks: Which collective intervention approaches can be identified in the radicalisation and co-radicalisation of young people and post-adolescents?
- Goals
A workshop concept for educational media publishers will be developed, with that it would be possible to determine publisher's needs in dealing with issues related to Islam and to transfer the project results. The aim is to provide suggestions for teaching units addressing Islam in subjects that take account of the current interweaving of religious and political discourses and are suitable for effectively counteracting (co)radicalization tendencies.
- Approach
As part of this joint project the team at the Leibniz Institute for Educational Media | Georg Eckert Institute (GEI) are undertaking a baseline study of the portrayal of Islam in German textbooks. The findings will contribute to the development of pedagogical concepts and teaching materials, which will be developed during the project and consequently published on the online platform Zwischentöne [Nuances] run by the GEI.
