  • Unspoken

    Under the title "Ungesagtes" ("Unspoken"), the five articles and one discussion deal with aspects that one would tend to contrast with and deduct from the ideal of objectivity of science as "subjective" parts. On the one hand, it is about what the researching subject brings into the scientific work in often subtle ways: own views, emotions, values, personal beliefs. On the other hand, the influence of everything subjective on human behavior is itself also a topic of research.

    Topics:

    • Magazine
    • dialogue
    • communication
    • science communication

  • A/Symmetrien, Europa und der globale Islam

    Kolloquium „A/Symmetrie — Interdisziplinäre Perspektiven“

    Für viele wissenschaftliche Arbeiten zum modernen Islam und der ‚muslimischen Welt‘ bleiben Europa bzw. der Westen weiterhin der zentrale Bezugs- und Bewertungsrahmen. Dies hat konkrete Auswirkungen auf Forschungsfragen. In seinem Beitrag will Simon W. Fuchs zum einem dem Phänomen nachspüren, dass Europa als Modell gesehen wird - und die ‚muslimische Welt‘ nach ihren Symmetrien und Asymmetrien dazu bewertet wird. Daneben möchte er aber auch fragen, wie wir uns genau dieser ‚Vergleichsfalle‘ von A/Symmetrien entziehen können.
