Abstract
Im Rahmen eines Fotoprojekts haben Teilnehmende aus Togo und Sierra Leone Fotos von Religion und interreligiösen Beziehungen in ihrem Alltag gemacht. Die Dokumentation des Projekts zeigt ihre unterschiedlichen Perspektiven und lädt die Betrachtenden ein, über Religion und interreligiöse Beziehungen in ihrem Leben nachzudenken.
Rising religious violence makes it imperative to develop strategies to foster and preserve interreligious peace. We examine the role of descriptive and injunctive pro-mixing ingroup norms in explaining interreligious contact and, indirectly, more favorable interreligious attitudes.
Interreligious relations remain an important dimension of human coexistence and we currently observe an increase in religiously motivated violence and discrimination. Hence, we need to better understand determinants of interreligious peace.
Sometimes, people belonging to different religions do not get along well. In 2022 we travelled to Sierra Leone and Togo where interreligious relations were very peaceful. This comic depicts some examples of how to make interreligious peace: celebrating together, collaborating, being friends, and respecting each other despite differences.
In afrikanischen Gesellschaften gibt es Anerkennung religiöser Vielfalt, aber auch (gewalttätigen) religiösen Extremismus. Was bestimmt, ob interreligiöse Beziehungen friedlich oder angespannt sind? Was können wir von positiven Beispielen lernen und welche Rolle spielt religiöser Extremismus?
