It has also been found that the Arab World is usually portrayed monolithically through negative stereotypes despite its diversity in terms of culture, economy and ethnicity (Aly, 2007;Awass, 1996;Baker et al., 2013;Dunn, 2001;Elayan, 2005;Eltantawy, 2007;Halliday, 2006;Hamada, 2001;Poole, 2002;Richardson, 2004;Said, 1997;Schiffer, 2008). ...

This article reports on the first stage of a research project on German university students’ conceptualization of Arab women and to what extent it is affected by the latters’ representation in the Western press during the Arab Spring. We combined discourse analysis and corpus-linguistic approaches to investigate the relationship between lexical items used by the students to express their attitudes toward Arab women and those featuring in news headlines about them published in British, American, and German news media. Results show that the portrayal of Arab women in Western news headlines has a clear impact on German students’ opinions of them. The findings also show that our participants tend to be aware of this effect, which could be partly due to their familiarity with discourse analysis as students of linguistics. These results have implications for incorporating media education systematically in general university courses.

Starting from the definition that stereotypes are based on categorization and attribu-tion, this article first deals with the relationship between categorization and stereotyping as well as images and imagology. The multitude of categories and stereotypes used in the process of perception raises the question of which categories are decisive in which social contexts and how different social categories are intertwined. Following an examination of categories, stereotypes, and images, these questions of interdependence lead to the fourth important topic of this article: intersectionality.
... This applies especially when migrants are framed negatively and in a stereotyped way, as many content analyses demonstrate (Greenberg et al. 2002, on the German media see Müller 2005a). Another problem are the long-term media effects of the widespread and constant use of metaphors and phrases with negative connotations like "the boat is full" and "floods of refugees" or "Islamic terrorism" etc. that delegitimize the minority groups themselves (Poole 2000;Schiffer 2005). Critical discourse analysts like Teun van Dijk (1991) postulate increasing racism in society as a result of such media content. ...

Medieninhalte sind ein wichtiger Gegenstand der Gender Media Studies. Kritisiert werden aus feministischer Perspektive zum einen die Unterrepräsentanz von Frauen* in den Medien sowie die Art und Weise der medialen Konstruktion und Reproduktion von Geschlechterunterschieden, zum anderen die Themenauswahl und -gewichtung. Trotz des hohen Stellenwerts, den Medieninhalte für die Kommunikations- und Medienwissenschaft haben, gibt es kaum Metaanalysen, die systematisch erfassen, welche Themen und Inhalte mittels welcher Methoden untersucht werden. Das gilt auch für die Medieninhaltsforschung der Gender Media Studies. Explorativ und ausgehend von erkenntnis- und geschlechtertheoretischen Positionen lassen sich thematische Schwerpunkte – von Arbeit und Beruf über Sexualität und Körper, Gewalt und Krieg, Ethnizität und Migration bis zu Gender als Metadiskurs – identifizieren, die innerhalb der Forschung zu Geschlecht in den Medien gesetzt wurden.

Following economists and scientists, politicians of various European countries have realized that a modern society with a declining birthrate is in need of immigrants. What can journalists contribute, in order to enable migrants to feel at home in their receiving country? What can be missed and ruined by journalists and media with regard to the integration of ethnic minorities? Scholars from Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Russia, Switzerland, The Netherlands, and the U.S. present their findings on the matter of media integration of migrants. Can European media learn from experiences in the classic countries of immigration in North America?

Araştırmalar medyanın İslamı; barbar, şiddet, terör, gerici vb. tanımlamalarla verdiği, kamuoyunda da bu yönde algısal bir eğilim oluşturduğunu ve bu eğilimin de sürekli arttığını ifade etmektedir (Hafez, 2002(Hafez, , 2009Poole, 2002;Schiffer, 2004Schiffer, , 2005Deltombe, 2005, Halm, 2006Frost;, Glück, 2008Schneiders, 2009;Leibold, 2009;Bielefeldt, 2009, Ahmed ve Matthes, 2017Khan ve Mythen, 2018).

There is increasing interest in the literature on Islamophobia. A database was established by the Turkish government in June 2018 to combat Islamophobia. A lot of content that is found to be Islamophobic, from Hollywood movies to cartoons, from digital games to music, has been accessed via the official internet address “farkindayiz.gov.tr”. On the website, a call text has been added to the public asking them to fight against islamophobic content and to report the content they noticed. Website created a perfect resource which is open to anyone who wants to learn the government approach of the to islamophobic criteria in to be secular country Turkey where is mostly inhabited by Muslims. In this study, the question of what criteria according to the government in Turkey were accepted to be Islamophobic media content was investigated through this website. In this research, which used a single intertwined case pattern, the photographs, videos, and descriptions on the website were subjected to comparative content analysis. The results that criteria for evaluating media contents as islamophobic are grouped into three main themes: 1 - Attack on Islamic symbols. 2- Insulting Allah, the Prophet Muhammed, and the Holy Quran. 3-To associate Islam with Terrorism

In der Methodologie der Netzwerkforschung hatte die Visualisierung schon von Beginn ihren Platz, wenn auch der Zeitpunkt – in der Regel am Ende einer Netzwerkanalyse – und der Rahmen – vor allem zur Präsentation der Analyseergebnisse – ein anderer war, als in der visuellen Netzwerkforschung, in der Visualisierungen eine viel zentralere Rolle zukommt. In diesem Artikel wollen wir daher zuerst die methodologischen Voraussetzungen der Netzwerkforschung umreißen, bevor wir uns mit ganz unterschiedlichen Möglichkeiten der Visualisierung relationaler Strukturen befassen. Hierbei liegt der Fokus auf den unterschiedlichen Strategien für den Einsatz von Visualisierungen im Verlauf eines Forschungsprozesses, die in einer Synopsis auch grafisch „veranschaulicht“ werden. Danach werden Verfahren zur visuellen Datenerhebung präsentiert und idealtypisch abgegrenzt, sowie deren Möglichkeiten und Grenzen aufgezeigt. Schließlich stellen wir grafische Elemente der Netzwerkforschung vor und zeigen, inwieweit diese für bestimmte Informationsdarstellungen geeignet sind.

In unserem Beitrag diskutieren wir die Frage, über welche Themen im Rahmen der Berichterstattung über Flucht und Migration gesprochen wird. Uns interessiert, was in den etablierten Printmedien „sagbar“ ist, d. h. welche Themen (und das bedeutet auch: wessen Themen) dargestellt werden. Dieser Frage nähern wir uns auf Grundlage einer Analyse der Presseberichterstattung an, die den Zeitraum August bis Dezember 2015 anhand ausgewählter Zeitpunkte untersucht und sich auf die Darstellungen in der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung (FAZ) sowie der Süddeutschen Zeitung (SZ) stützt.

Die zentrale Forschungsfrage des RIRA-Projektes lautet: Welche kollektiven Interventionsansätze können bei der Radikalisierung und Co-Radikalisierung Jugendlicher und post-adoleszenter Muslim:innen und Nicht-Muslim:innen identifiziert werden?
Der vorliegende Literaturbericht gibt einen Einblick in die Inhalte, Forschungsfragen und Hypothesen der verschiedenen Teilprojekte und zielt auf eine komprimierte Darstellung des dazu gehörigen Forschungsstandes.
Der Literaturbericht gliedert sich dabei wie folgt:
Das zweite Kapitel richtet das Augenmerk auf die Bedingungen der Radikalisierung.
Ausgehend von diesen Überlegungen widmet sich das dritte Kapitel den möglichen Effekten dieser Radikalisierungsprozesse auf die Demokratie bzw. die demokratische politische Kultur in Deutschland.
Im vierten Kapitel rückt die Präventionspraxis sowie erste Erkenntnisse über geeignete Schulmaterialien in den Fokus.
Ausgehend von diesen Ausführungen werden im fünften und letzten Kapitel einige zentrale Erkenntnisse und verbleibende Forschungslücken skizziert.
Islamophobia has become a major social issue both in Europe and in the United States (Bleich, 2011; Hafez, 2014; Helbling, 2012; Strabac & Listhaug, 2008). Through different research vehicles and global polling studies, Gallup has collected a great deal of data detailing public opinion about various aspects of respect, treatment, and tolerance with respect to Muslims worldwide. The data show that Islamophobia has increased in frequency and prevalence during the past decade (Gallup World, 2013). Germany is no exception in this regard (Decker, Kiess & Brähler, 2016). Accordingly, hostile and violent actions against Muslims and Islamic facilities have increased in several European countries (Brauns, 2012; The Guardian, 2016). Nevertheless, systematic empirical studies addressing Islamophobia in Germany are scarcely found (de Nève, 2013). Yet the empirical analysis of Islamophobia is crucial for practical and theoretical purposes. In-depth knowledge of the extent, forms, and possible causes of Islamophobia is essential for developing countermeasures to mitigate the negative consequences.
The overall aim of my PhD study is to contribute to ongoing academic discussions surrounding the topic of Islamophobia from social and political psychology perspectives. As a whole, the research project aims at systematically analyzing the structure, consequences, and some social, political, and psychological mechanisms of Islamophobia in Germany. Broadly speaking, my research addresses overarching questions such as: What is Islamophobia? What are the social, political, and psychological underpinnings that best explain it? And why care about it? Several key issues, including the definition, dimensionality, measurement, operationalization, contributing factors, consequences, and comparability of Islamophobia, are addressed in the four individual papers.
Der Umgang mit rechten Diskursen und Agitateuren ist vielfach Medienthema, sowie Thema unter JournalistenMedien und anderen Medienmachenden. Die These, die Provokationen und Falschaussagen politisch ungeliebter Akteure nicht unwidersprochen zu lassen, bedarf einer kritischen Überprüfung. Sie ignoriert zumeist die Erkenntnisse über die Funktionsweise von Sprache und anderer Zeichen und deren kognitive Wirkung.

Seit Jahren wird in politischer Öffentlichkeit und Wissenschaft heftig darüber gestritten, welches Sprechen über den Islam als legitimer Teil demokratischer Debatten zu betrachten ist und welches nicht. Diese Konflikte nimmt Floris Biskamp als Ausgangspunkt für eine theoretische Diskussion von Aushandlungen kultureller Differenz in der demokratischen Öffentlichkeit. Er legt dar, unter welchen Verkürzungen die gängigen Konzepte von Islamophobie, Islamfeindschaft und antimuslimischem Rassismus leiden. Um diese zu überwinden, entwickelt er vor dem Hintergrund von neuerer kritischer Theorie und postkolonialer Theorie ein Konzept von Rassismus als systematisch verzerrtem Kommunikationsverhältnis.
Concerns of Muslim Communities in Berlin in eight different field of life
Der Diskurs um den Islam ist vor allem in den Kulturund Sozialwissenschaften intensiv behandelt worden. Werner Schiffauer (1998: 420) deklariert bereits Ende der 1990er Jahre den »Islam als Diskursfeld«. Der gleichnamige Band von Dirk Halm aus dem Jahr 2007 greift den Beitrag Schiffauers auf und zeigt, »wie unterschiedliche Akteure bestimmte Bilder des Islams in der Öffentlichkeit etablieren, um damit Positionen zu stützen und Interessen zu vertreten« (Halm 2007: 8).
Die in dem vorliegenden Band praktizierten kontrapunktischen Lesarten, die auf anderen Denkhaltungen und Wirklichkeitsauffassungen beruhen, suspendieren lang eingeübte Sortierungen und Klassifikationen. Migration wird nicht zu einem Sonderforschungsbereich degradiert, sondern als Gesellschaftsforschung betrachtet und ins Zentrum wissenschaftlicher Überlegungen gerückt. Im Mittelpunkt stehen Zugänge und Gedanken, in denen historische Entwicklungen und globalgesellschaftliche Zusammenhänge aus der Perspektive und Erfahrung von Migration gedacht werden, ohne jedoch die asymmetrischen Machtverhältnisse und strukturellen Ungleichheiten zu übersehen. Das Motto „Migration bewegt und bildet“ bringt diese Haltung zum Ausdruck. Link: https://www.uibk.ac.at/iup/buecher/9783903187474.html
This chapter identifies ten key dominant Islamophobic narratives and the ten key dominant counter narratives to Islamophobia operating in Germany. Islamophobic narratives were found to fix Muslims collectively as in descending order of prevalence, a threat to security, unassimilable, a demographic threat, an Islamization threat, a threat to local, national, and European identity, responsible for excessive women’s oppression, essentially different and violent, incomplete citizens and a risk to the majority, and essentially homophobic.

Aşağıdaki çalışmada, Mayring'in Nitel İçerik Analizi yöntemiyle Avusturya'da çıkan üç gazetede yer alan haberler analiz edilmiştir. Bu analizler, birkaç hafta sonrasında yayınlanan "Avusturya Değerler Araştırması" ile ilgili hazırlanmış olan haberler ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonunda Avusturya Eğitim, Sanat ve Kültür Bakanlığının ve Avusturya İslami İnanç Topluluğunun (İGGiÖ olarak kısaltılacaktır) politikaları üzerine yürütülen tartışmaların etkilerine dair bir analiz yürütülmüştür. Ayrıca hangi resmi tedbirlerin alındığı ve kültürleşme ve esascılık tarafından şekillendirilen İslami söylem çerçevesindeki siyasetin nasıl değerlendirildiğine dair sorunlar ele alınmıştır
This chapter discusses multiculturalism and Muslims in Germany, arguing that there is a gap between a multicultural reality and an acceptance of multiculturalism and multicultural identities. In conversation with the literature, the ethnographic research shows that although the research participants strongly identify as German Muslims, they do not feel as equal parts of German society. The chapter is divided into two sections. First, I provide an introduction to multiculturalism and Muslims in Germany, covering a general overview, public opinion polls, political statements, media representations and comments by scholars. Then, I present in-depth insights through selected personal viewpoints by young German Muslims about the acceptance of their German Muslim identity and society’s openness towards diversity.
Öffentlichkeit und Medien sind zentrale Bezugsbereiche von Religion, und entsprechende Beziehungen sind Forschungsfelder der Religionssoziologie. Während im Rahmen der Säkularisierungsdebatte der Rückzug traditioneller Religionen in die Privatsphäre diskutiert wurde, ist Religion als Gegenstand massenmedialer Thematisierung längst wieder in der Öffentlichkeit präsent. Zugleich entstehen mediale Räume, die quer zur klassischen Unterscheidung von öffentlich und privat liegen. Der vorliegende Artikel widmet sich diesem Feld in drei Blöcken: 1) die Verortung von Religion zwischen Privatsphäre und Öffentlichkeit, 2) die Thematisierung von Religion in der medialen Öffentlichkeit sowie 3) institutionelle und individuelle Mediennutzung und deren Wechselwirkungen mit Religion. Dabei wird argumentiert, dass sich die Präsenz von Religion in Medien und Öffentlichkeit zunehmend von der Bedeutung religiöser Institutionen abgelöst hat: Während die Emanzipation einer religionsunabhängigen Medienlandschaft Religion immer wieder zum Objekt von Berichterstattung und Unterhaltung macht, müssen religiöse Institutionen sich und ihre Inhalte den Logiken von Markt und Medien anpassen, um weiterhin Thema oder Teilnehmer öffentlicher, medialer Diskurse zu sein.
Anti-Muslim voices have become louder in many places in the midst of ongoing atrocities undertaken in the name of Islam. As a result, much of the creative participation of Western Muslims in the public sphere has become overshadowed. This tendency is not only visible in political discussions and the media landscape, but it is also often reflected in academia where research about Muslims in the West is predominantly shaped by the post 9/11 narrative. In contrast, European Muslims Transforming the Public Sphere offers a paradigm shift. It puts forward a new approach to understanding minority public engagement, suggesting that we need to go beyond conceptualisations that look at Muslims in the West mainly through the minority lens. By bringing into dialogue minority-specific and non-minority specific concepts, the book offers a relevant complement. Using young German Muslims engaged in media, the arts and culture and civil society as ten case studies, this book utilises the concepts of counterpublics and participatory culture to re-examine Muslims' engagement within the European public sphere. It presents a qualitative analysis, which has resulted from two years of ethnographic fieldwork and participant observation, in-depth interviews and primary source analysis of material produced by the research participants. This book is a unique insight into the outworking of multiculturalism in Western Europe. It illustrates the many-sidedness of young Muslims' public contributions, revealing how they transform European public spheres in different ways. Therefore, it will be a vital resource for any scholar involved in Islamic Studies, the Sociology of Religion, Religious Studies, Cultural Studies and Media Studies.
Das Ziel dieser Studie ist es, den spezifischen Einfluss von islamophoben Einstellungen, nämlich (a) anti-muslimischen Vorurteilen, (b) anti-islamischen Ressentiments und (c) islamophoben Verschwörungstheorien, hinsichtlich einer Fremdgruppen-Diskriminierung zu untersuchen. Des Weiteren sollen intergruppale und inter-individuelle Differenzvariablen hinsichtlich ihres Einflusses auf diskriminierende Einstellungen untersucht werden. Die Ergebnisse einer mehrteiligen Online-Studie mit TeilnehmerInnen aus Berlin (N =450) legen nahe, dass islamophobe Verschwörungstheorien am stärksten institutionelle Fremdgruppen- Diskriminierungen voraussagen, bei gleichzeitiger Kontrolle für die Effekte von sozialer Dominanzorientierung, Eigengruppen-Identifikation, politischem Konservatismus und den zwei weiteren Dimensionen von Islamophobie. Ein intergruppaler Kontakt hat wie erwartet eine negative Verbindung mit Diskriminierung.
