An anthropology of Muslims in Europe - A modest attempt by Martijn
Fursan Media has released a new English language Jihadist magazine: Jihad Recollections I. Analyzing such a magazine and Jihadi thought in general, should not only focus on the religious and or political content of the magazine (and the grievances that ‘make’ people resort to Jihadism). They do matter but they should be contextualized by studying the (daily) lives of people producing it and consuming it.
Even if Ramadan made all those controversial statements, why wouldn’t he be the right man for a dialogue? In fact it appears now that the frequent attacks on him are more dangerous for his position as a person for dialogue than his statements. In particular because he is not only under attack from Dutch secularists and anti-islamists but also from radical groups who oppose his cooperation with Dutch authorities and his statements about homosexuality and his call for a moratorium on corporate punishment. According to these critics Ramadan sells himself to the Dutch authorities which inevitable means that he will have to adjust (in their view dilute) the Islamic message. Their interpretation seems to be correct due to this controversy.
Afgelopen week werd het rapport religie en het publieke domein gepresenteerd. Dit rapport, samengesteld door het Instituut voor Publiek en Politiek (IPP) en het Ministerie van Binnenlandse Zaken, heeft als doel de juridische grenzen van de scheiding kerk-staat weer te geven en roept in feite gemeenten op hier pragmatisch mee om te gaan.
Het ministerie van Binnenlandse Zaken heeft een nieuw wapen in de strijd tegen radicalisering, meer in het bijzonder tegen de Salafi beweging die het speerpunt vormt van het anti-radicaliseringsbeleid: een folder die gemeenten attent moet maken op salafisten en hun vermeende facadepolitiek.
