In his article on the concept of prevention work that encompasses all of society, Sindyan Qasem writes: \u2018Only by our acknowledgment of the unease, fear and anger of Muslim youths can we expect them to take the step of questioning their own black-and-white thinking and enemy images\u2019. In order to work against anti-democratic positions that are hostile to freedom we need to be willing to take the experiences of young Muslims seriously and to address them in educational work.<\/h4>\n

Youths who identify themselves as being Muslim must fairly often witness how their religion is the subject of debates on security, integration and animosity. The implicitness with which especially young people want to be both Muslim and German is something that is questioned and rejected by Muslims and non-Muslims alike. For youths, the discontent resulting from this<\/p>\n

engenders creates the very climate that inspires radical answers. Prevention work that seeks to constructively avert the ideologization of young Muslims should thus also promote the recognition of German-Muslim identities by the society as a whole and put youths in the position to reclaim the prerogative of interpretation when it comes to \u2018their\u2019 Islam.<\/p>\n

\u2018Just as her daughter was about to take a seat next to me, she pulled her child away and sat her somewhere else<\/em>. I was speechless at the views that are being instilled in our young generation.\u2019 \u2013 This account of racism vis-\u00e0-vis a woman wearing a hijab, and published in the online edition of a local newspaper, was subsequently commented on in MuslimStern\u2018s[i]<\/strong><\/em> Facebook page as follows: \u2018unfortunately, this is not a one-off incident. The division of society is being successfully driven by Zionist and right-wing extremists.\u2019<\/p>\n

According to the operators of the MuslimStern site, which is subscribed to by about 100 000 people, its mission is to enlighten and inform about discrimination \u2018against the Muslim minority\u2019. In fulfilling its mission,[ii]<\/em><\/strong> MuslimStern mixes neutral reporting, social criticism that is driven by political apathy or genuine dismay with enemy images, victim ideology and conspiracy theories. By providing links to racism-critical reports on German news portals and short, biased commentary on refugee policies, Islamophobia, anti-Muslim racism or on the \u2018Islamic State\u2019, this Facebook page outlines a Muslim community that is forced to assert itself against an inflammatory media, corrupt politicians and a German society that is racist through and through. This kind of self-victimization, embedded in conspiracy theories and strictly bipolar worldviews is characteristic of a great number of freedom-curbing, anti-democratic movements. Among other things, this kind of narrative paves the way for problematic groupings and environments that can be called \u2018Islamist\u2019.<\/p>\n

However, only some of the users of this type of Facebook pages and websites espouse ideological positions in their day-to-day lives. And just the fewest are in fact involved in Islamist or Salafist networks. Indeed, only isolated cases are actually fascinated with violence. Nevertheless, the MuslimStern example illustrates how attractive and close to home such assertions are: Incidences of unfairness are highly relevant to many young people \u2013 regardless of their religion or background. Behind their often harsh comments and ideological positions you can often find motives (concealed) that can be hooked into when providing civic education and doing prevention work.<\/p>\n

Being disadvantaged when looking for an apartment or a job; attacks on mosques, one-sided mindsets and even physical violence are real phenomena that are not limited to radical nationalists and\/or right-wing circles. The distorted perception that individuals of Muslim faith are a \u2018problem group\u2019 exists across all layers of society and independently of basic political views.[iii]<\/em><\/strong> On the Internet, for example, Islamophobic or racist comments are not found exclusively on sites operated by outright Islamophobes. This attitude can be found just about everywhere Muslims are talked or written about, for example, in the commentary section of online articles published in major newspapers.<\/p>\n

Schools too, which serve as a mirror of society, are not without discriminatory views and attitudes. And obviously young Muslims are not indifferent to this. They have a real need to process personal experiences of discrimination or the experiences of discrimination made by their parents. They also have a need to talk about worries concerning their job prospects and this fear is reflected in their posts \u2013 both in social networks and in our workshops[iv]<\/em><\/strong>. In part, this fear turns to anger. Some youths may then make sweeping accusations that suggest \u2018the state\u2019, \u2018the politicians\u2019, \u2018the media\u2019 or simply \u2018the Germans\u2019 are responsible for their discrimination.<\/p>\n

The disappointment and anger of young Muslims can be instrumentalized by Islamist propaganda. Real experiences and ideological interpretive schemes are thus consolidated into resolute enemy images: According to these, Muslims are a group that is threatened from all sides and forced to defend itself against hostilities and racism; if need be using violence. Presenting themselves as victims of societal resentment, however, prevents active and constructive engagement against discrimination.<\/p>\n

These worries, fears and attitudes need to be addressed in our pedagogical work and civic education. When dealing with experiences of discrimination, resentment and unease, it is important to proceed with caution. Especially since Islamophobia and anti-Muslim racism are not a fantasy, it is critical that educators listen and show genuine interest right from the start. Some of the things your pupils say may tempt you to shout out: \u2018No, that\u2019s not true!\u2019 But it is only by taking note of their unease, fear and anger \u2013 and also acknowledging it \u2013 that we can expect them to take the second step and question their own black-and-white thinking. In this connection, it makes sense to convey to the youths that Islamophobia and anti-Muslim racism is in fact a variety of group-based misanthropy.[v]<\/em><\/strong> Once they understand that the different types of discrimination (sexism, discrimination against handicapped individuals, homophobia and anti-Semitism, for example) function based on similar mechanisms, they also start to deal with their own prejudices in a self-critical way and recognize that it is not just Muslims who have to deal with discrimination. Thus, youths who already have experiences with a so-called \u2018regime of belonging\u2019[vi]<\/strong><\/em> are quickly able to recognize the mechanisms of the various forms of discrimination. On this basis, they can also approach the question, in a self-reflective way, of how far religious affiliation and religious practices can be accommodated as part of our social coexistence. The central, guiding question: \u2018How do we want to live?\u2019 allows youths to reflect independently and to make suggestions on how social coexistence can be achieved \u2013 at schools, for example.<\/p>\n

Not only is self-reflection on a cognitive level important, so too is the experience of self-efficacy. This argumentation thus should always go hand in hand with probing various options for taking action, active engagement against discrimination and advocating social participation. Viewing social grievances as unchangeable engenders a sense of powerlessness that can make young people susceptible to the simplified and ideological interpretations offered by Salafists. The starting point for this situation can be search movements in connection with such questions as: \u2018Who am I?\u2019, \u2018How do I want to be?\u2019, \u2018Where do I want to go?\u2019, \u2018Why is the world so unfair?\u2019.<\/p>\n

The orientation processes of many young, more or less religious Muslims can be viewed as having an emancipatory, integration-seeking character. In the end, getting accepted as equal members of the German society is what they wanted. Things become problematic though, if these youths are denied this acceptance and if they don\u2019t get answers to their questions; or \u2013 even worse \u2013 if these answers come from an ideological viewpoint. With the intention of spreading their own ideological worldview, videos and speeches like the ones that are disseminated on such platforms as \u2018Generation Islam\u2019<\/em> or \u2018Die Wahre Religion\u2019[vii]<\/strong><\/em> pick up questions on identity, orientation and purpose. These sites regularly point out phenomena that allegedly prove how immoral, hedonistic and individualistic our society is and that it rejects Muslim youth. Individuals can elaborate their experiences with racism and discrimination on these sites. Topics such as gambling, Youporn or the power of banks are addressed. The selection of topics isn\u2019t random. It singles out controversial topics that are looked at with disgust by many people regardless of their background and religious affiliation.<\/p>\n

Successful prevention work thus also faces the challenge of reacting sensitively to people\u2019s concerns and insecurity. It must forestall ideologization and, at the same time, must avoid stigmatizing when addressing youths so that their resentment is not aggravated further. The objective of preventive work can thus not merely be a progressive, educational prevention of indoctrination; it must encompass alternative proposals and outbalance the fascination for ideological interpretations and point out real perspectives in our society. This alternative must be attractive for youths, so an appropriate language is to be used. To achieve this it can indeed be helpful to ask: \u2018What can Hizb-at-Tahrir<\/em>, the well-known Salafist Sven Lau, or MuslimStern<\/em> do that we can\u2019t?\u2019 Being part of society has to be more appealing that withdrawing into ideology!<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why prevention work is directed at \u2018perfectly normal\u2019 youths and young adults who might occasionally come into contact with indoctrination attempts. It differs from deradicalization work that sets in with individuals who are already active in pertinent groups and who have internalized corresponding worldviews and behavior. Primary (or \u2018universal\u2019) prevention doesn\u2019t begin when a propensity for violence has already taken hold; it begins much earlier to prevent anti-democratic, illiberal positions or behavior long before any ideologization has taken hold.<\/p>\n

Creating alternative offers can be understood in many ways an involve many different spheres of work. [viii]<\/strong><\/em> The possibilities include educational and extracurricular work at schools; child support measures, youth and family counseling; educational guidance, social psychological support, clubs and social organizational work but also programs that are offered by youth and social welfare services and the police. The importance of networking the various players becomes visible in the work with youths. Networking helps the players in this field to reach these youths in times of typical juvenile insecurity and difficult phases of adjustment. Networking helps to encourage capacity building and empowerment; especially when they get real chances of participation in the society.<\/p>\n

Prevention is thus tantamount to civic education, it reinforces democratic values and social cohesion at the same time \u2013 and this independently of a specific target group. Instead of defining a supposedly uniform category of \u2018young Muslims\u2019 who also \u2018require strict monitoring\u2019, and thereby fueling their stigmatization by society, prevention work can open channels to bring about change in the whole society in dealing with questions on Islam, religiousness and anti-Muslim racism.<\/p>\n

Not just youths are encouraged to question their attitudes; we also want to get educators, municipal administrators, politicians and the media to reflect on how they deal with the the topic of Islam. Indeed, in addition to sensitively dealing with discrimination, preventing ideologization, and showing opportunities to participate in society, prevention also means conveying the idea to young people that Islam and Islamic-motivated ideas are in no way alien or hostile to democracy. In fact, they are an integral part of it. Islam should be understood as one of many resources for peaceful coexistence in society. Presently, foreign fighters, IS returnees and the fear of jihadist groups still dominate the discussion. These individuals can only be reached by de-radicalization measures, successful approaches for which have already been developed. Nevertheless, only delicate prevention work that is comprehensive, inclusive and conceived for the long-term can create a social climate in which calls for ideologization will largely fade away unheeded.<\/p>\n

[v]<\/strong><\/em> Using the concept of group-based misanthropy makes sense not just in relation to anti-Muslim racism. If so-called \u2018Islamist\u2019 or \u2018Salafist\u2019 ideologies are also understood as a form of group-based misanthropy, this illustrates the danger that religiousness is correlated with ideology. At the same time, the methodical similarities in the ideologies of inequality can be recognized \u2013 both from the Islamist and anti-Islamic camps.<\/p>\n
