Dr. Gülay Türkmen-Dervisoglu
PROFIL
In meinem aktuellen Forschungsprojekt an der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen untersuche ich die Beziehung zwischen Religion, Ethnizität und Nationalismus. Der Fokus liegt hierbei auf der Ausbildung von Identität bei Immigranten und Flüchtlingen aus Länder mit muslimischer Bevölkerungsmehrheit in Deutschland. Mittels einer ethnographischen Untersuchung von Moscheengemeinden und mit Einzelinterviews untersuche ich, wie vielschichtige Identitäten solcher Gruppen in religiösen Kontexten umgesetzt werden. Besonders interessiert mich die Frage, warum bestimmte Immigrantengruppen ihre ethno-nationalistische Identität bewahren, ihr den Vorzug geben und ‚ethnische Moscheen‘ gründen, während andere den Islam als eine supranationale Identität verstehen, sich selbst ausschließlich als ‚Muslime‘ sehen und ihren ethnischen Hintergrund herunterspielen.WISSENSCHAFTLICHE ABSCHLÜSSE
