Identity in the face of Religious Plurality. A qualitative-reconstructive approach on conditions and impacts regarding Interreligious Communication

文化的多样性、生活方式的异质性和宗教观念的多元性一直是不同科学学科面临的一个挑战性课题。在这方面，关于承认文化、社会和个人身份的问题，以及关于陌生人和亲密人之间关系的问题，是文化和社会研究中思考的领域。在宗教多元性和宗教间接触和交流领域也特别关注一些研究。然而，宗教似乎有问题纳入上述辩论。至少在主位的角度来看，宗教间的相遇和沟通，此外，处理的超验真理的要求，这可能是连接到无形的权威。在这方面，宗教间沟通的目的不仅在于就相互容忍的限度进行谈判，而且还在于争取承认无形的真理主张。在这种观点看来，宗教多元化似乎是危险的，必然会引发文明冲突（亨廷顿，1998年）。与此相反，提交的项目设定了这样的假设，即宗教间相遇和交流的空间，就像这些在9/11之后作为宗教间对话的倡议而建立的空间，建立了独特的宗教动态空间，在那里，宗教、个人和社会的混合身份超越了传统的容忍让步，或一神论宗教绝对性主张的严格限制。该项目打算用重建的方法分析宗教间对话倡议中发生的持续宗教间沟通如何影响成员的共同工作。该项目的目的是在社会近距离内面对宗教多元性的经验时产生一种扎根的宗教身份理论。在这里，不仅演员的认知过程的治疗和他们的主观理论是感兴趣的，但他们的冲突，划定，协调，或混合物的宗教产生的意义上的传记水平。该项目还将研究宗教间沟通的中断和放弃的途径。因此，该项目首次分析了宗教间持续沟通产生的传记动力-社会近距离宗教多元化的各自经历。因此，该项目有助于现代宗教信仰的历史，以及关于现代社会宗教世俗化和转型的辩论。

The variety of cultures, heterogeneity of lifestyles and plurality of religious ideas has been a challenging subject of diverse scientific disciplines. In this regard, questions about recognition of cultural, social and personal identity, as well as about the relationship between the stranger and the intimate contour the field of reflections in cultural and social studies. Some studies are also given special attention in the field of religious plurality and interreligious encounter and communication. However, the religion seems problematic to integrate into the above mentioned debate. At least in emic perspective, interreligious encounter and communication, additionally, are dealt with in terms of claims of transcendent truth, which are possibly connected to intangible authority. In this respect, interreligious communication does not only aim at the negotiation of the limits of mutual toleration, but, furthermore, at the struggle for recognition of intangible claims of truth. Religious plurality, in this view, appears dangerous and unavoidably triggers the clash of civilizations (Huntington 1998).In contrast, the submitted project sets the assumption that spaces of interreligious encounter and communication, like these, which have been founded after 9/11 as initiatives of interreligious dialogue, have established unique spaces of religious dynamics where religious personal and social hybrid identities have emerged beyond traditional tolerance concessions and/or strict limitations of the monotheistic religions claim of absoluteness.With reconstructive methods the project intends to analyze how continuous interreligious communication as it takes place in initiatives of interreligious dialogue influences the common work on of members. The aim of the project is to generate a grounded theory of religious Identity in the face experiences of religious plurality in a social near range. Here, not only the actors cognitive processes of treatment and their subjective theories are of interest, but their conflicts, delineation, harmonization, or mixtures of religious generation of sense on a biographical level. The project will also look at the gateways of the break down and abandonment of interreligious communication.Therefore, the project analyzes for the first time which biographical dynamics are generated by continuously interreligious communication respective experiences of religious plurality in social close-range. The project thus contributes to the history of modern religiosity and to the debates on secularization and transformation of religion in modern societies.
