Labour Market Discrimination of Muslims and Political Trust in Germany: Experimental Evidence on Muslim and Non-Muslim Responses
This study uses an online experiment to examine whether information about discrimination against Muslim women in the labour market affects Muslims’ trust in political institutions. The study examined whether this effect is more pronounced among Muslims with a strong Muslim identity, and whether there is an indirect effect of such discrimination on political trust via generalised trust. The study also examined reactions by non-Muslims to discrimin…
Muslims in Germany and Trust in Times of Crisis – Introduction to the Special Issue
Muslims’ Experiences with Discrimination, Political Support, and Future Expectations
In contrast to the general expectation, survey studies show that Muslims living in Western democracies display higher levels of support towards the political system and its objects than their non-Muslim fellow citizens. However, research also showed that trust towards political institutions decreases when immigrants of Muslim faith in Western democracy feel discriminated. Based on group discussions with Muslim men and women (n = 36) in a southern…
Discrimination and Civic Engagement of Immigrants in Western Societies. A Systematic Scoping Review
Research has highlighted the barriers that immigrants face due to discrimination in their everyday lives. At the same time, it has been shown that immigrants get civically engaged to counteract discrimination and to work for structural change. To contribute to ongoing research on how discrimination affects attitudes, behaviour, and eventually life opportunities of immigrants, we investigate in a scoping review conceptualisations and measurements …
Factors That Shape Mosque Archives: A Multi-level Model
In most mosque archives, the subject range seems to be limited to bureaucratic matters. In this article I discuss the factors that are responsible for this constraint. Using academic literature on (Christian) religious and (ethnic) community archives, as well as relying on the research presented in this special issue, I develop a hierarchical (or multi-level) model of subject ranges in mosque archives by considering factors at the individual, int…
Turkish Mosque Archives in Industrial Towns in Southern Germany: An Ethnographic Survey
Starting from the thesis that European mosque archives offer important sources for the history of Muslims and Islam in Europe, this contribution presents results of a pilot survey into the whereabouts of mosque archives in Germany. Focusing on five small towns in industrial zones where predominantly Turkish contract workers have settled, we asked Turkish mosque administrators, chairmen and imams how they had handled papers in the past, whether an…
Politische Partizipation von Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund in Deutschland: Eine quantitativ-empirische Analyse
Researching Mahr in Germany: A Multidisciplinary Approach
This article considers the legal institution of mahr in Islamic family law from three research perspectives in order to provide insights into the phenomenon's complexity, particularly with regard to current legal practices. In particular, emphasis is placed both on countries where family law is shaped by Islamic traditions (e.g., Morocco) and on countries whose legal traditions do not have a mahr counterpart (e.g., Germany). First, the social and…
Muslims’ Day-to-Day Handling of Property and the Adherence to Islamic Norms
The aim of this work is to answer the question: “What role do Islamic norms play in property-related attitudes and behaviour of Muslims living in Western European societies?” To this end, a systematic review of electronic journal databases was undertaken to identify academic works published on the matter up to August 2013. Twenty relevant papers were identified, all of which contained original data. The empirical results of the studies show that …
