empirische Untersuchungen, systematische Überlegungen und didaktische Perspektiven eines Religionsunterrichts im Horizont religiöser und kultureller Pluralisierung

Religionsunterricht und Dialog

Wolfram Weiße

Angesichts zunehmender Bedeutung von religiöser Vielfalt und sozialer Heterogenität in Religionsunterricht, Schule und Bildung erfahren Ansätze dialogischen Religionsunterrichts große Aufmerksamkeit. Über den Dialogischen Religionsunterricht in Hamburg hinaus haben sich in vielen Regionen Deutschlands, in der Schweiz und in Österreich Formen dialogischen-interreligiösen Lernens im Religionsunterricht etabliert. Bislang gibt es keine Darstellung, die einen Überblick zu kontextuellen Ansätzen dialogischen Religionsunterrichts gibt. Dieser Band schließt diese Lücke. Namhafte Religionspädagog*innen sowie Expert*innen aus angrenzenden Wissenschaften stellen etablierte Ansätze dialogischen Religionsunterrichts vor oder präsentieren neue Konzepte, wie Religionsunterricht sich entwickeln muss, um den rasant verlaufenden Prozessen religiöser Pluralisierung, aber auch sozialer Heterogenität gerecht werden zu können. Reflektiert werden Organisationsformen jenseits des konfessionellen Religionsunterrichts, diskutiert wird aber auch die Frage, inwiefern es einen bleibenden Sinn konfessionsbezogenen Lernens geben sollte. Darüber hinaus werden die Möglichkeiten erwogen, Dialog im Religionsunterricht innerhalb eines gemeinsamen Faches, zwischen verschiedenen Fachformaten oder in einem Fach- oder Lernbereich unter Beteiligung verschiedener Fächer zu verankern. Mit der im Band vertretenen Vielfalt von Ansätzen wird eine wichtige Grundlage für weitere Diskussionen zu dialogischem Religionsunterricht geschaffen.

Relations between Muslims and the public education systems of Europe are often characterised by tensions. There is often still a perceived incompatibility between the claims of individual Muslims or Muslim communities on the one hand and the aims of public education in Europe on the other. The relatively recent presence of Islam in much of Europe, the internal diversity of Muslim communities, the lack of a centralized, hierarchical church-like structure – different arguments are used to justify such a discriminatory treatment of one of the largest faith communities in Europe. Nevertheless, as this book aims to illustrate, there are already rich and diverse experiences throughout Europe of how to integrate Islam into the national and regional school systems, particularly in primary, but also in secondary education. Accordingly, this book provides some analyses of the ways in which Islam is integrated in education in certain regions of Spain, the Netherlands, France and England. These analyses are paralleled by empirical findings concerning the role of religion in the life of young Muslims, their views concerning religion in school, and the impact of religion in education and society in Spain, the Netherlands, Norway, Germany, France and England.

Regarding teaching about religions and worldviews, there is a gap between the ambitions of educational policies and our knowledge about what really happens in the classroom. Research on classroom interaction about religion is not very far developed, either nationally or as international and as comparative research. There is a growing awareness, however, that research on pupils’ perspectives on religion in education is needed in order to develop sustainable approaches for future education, and this book is a contribution to this research. The classroom can be seen as an arena both for learning and for micro-politics. This arena is shaped, and sometimes challenged and restricted, or even curtailed, by the wider societal and political context. In this book we present studies of classroom interaction that focus on the micro-sociological level of research. The studies presented open up a rather unexplored field of international comparative research on religion in education and the role of diversity for classroom interaction, giving deeper insights into what happens in classrooms, displaying varieties of interactive patterns and relating these to their specific contexts.
