项目摘要

The proposed 18 month study will explore socio-cultural processes of religious identification and practice and the politics of recognition of indigenous and migrant Muslims in Greece. As a country that has only recently began to attract large scale immigration, including growing numbers of migrants from Muslim countries, while at the same time hosting an indigenous Muslim minority at the North-East region of Thrace, Greece provides an interesting case study for exploring processes, policies and practices relating to the presence and role of Islam in Europe. The project will build on our previous work on minorities and migrants in Greece and will specifically examine the ways through which religious identity and practice are experienced, perceived, negotiated and organised by Muslims in Athens, at formal, vernacular and symbolic levels. In particular, we seek to explore such experiences, perceptions and negotiations with respect to formal and informal places of worship, religious rituals and symbols, as well as everyday practices, expressions and relations.The focus will be on two specific Muslim groups in Athens: recently-arrived Pakistani immigrants (who constitute the largest Muslim migrant community in Greece) and internal Muslim migrants from the indigenous minority of Thrace. The rationale for this comparison responds to a need for integrated accounts of 'migrants' and 'national minorities', in order to understand the role of religion as a 'marker' of collective identification, the patterns of interaction between these distinct groups and their place within ongoing debates on Islam in Greece. In that sense, our study will also address the politics of recognition of Muslim identities in the public sphere of a country whose national myth is essentially constructed in opposition to the (Ottoman/Turkish) Muslim 'Other' and where the (Orthodox) Church is not legally separated from the State. The research will contribute to ongoing debates surrounding the place of Islam in Europe, at a time of EU enlargement towards countries with indigenous Muslim populations, of growing policy concerns about immigrants' integration centred particularly upon Muslims, and of discriminatory and exclusionary frameworks partly referring to global politics of terrorism. Our previous application was graded A+ and we were invited to resubmit. The original version has been revised to include issues arisen in the meantime through our ongoing preliminary work on the topic and to take into account the reviewers' comments. In particular, as suggested by one of the reviewers (Review ID: 150497), we have lowered our percentage of time from 80% to 60% for the PI and from 60% to 40% for the Co-I. Our innovative account of Muslims in Greece will be explored through a combination of qualitative methodologies and analytical tools, including interviews, observational studies, review of relevant academic literature, press articles and official statistics. The project will build on the research team's experience and expertise in researching immigrants and the Muslim minority in Greece, and will benefit from the links already established with community organisations in Athens. The topic is expected to raise sensitive issues, related to some participants' legal status and marginality, thus ethical considerations will be of paramount importance in carrying out the fieldwork research. The study will produce outputs of academic relevance, as well as outputs relevant to Muslim community organisations in Greece.

这项为期18个月的研究将探讨宗教认同和实践的社会文化过程，以及希腊承认土著和移民穆斯林的政治。作为一个最近才开始吸引大规模移民的国家，包括越来越多的来自穆斯林国家的移民，同时在色雷斯东北地区接纳了一个土著穆斯林少数民族，希腊为探讨与伊斯兰在欧洲的存在和作用有关的进程、政策和做法提供了一个有趣的案例研究。该项目将建立在我们以前对希腊少数民族和移民的工作基础上，并将具体研究雅典穆斯林在正式，白话和象征层面上体验，感知，谈判和组织宗教身份和实践的方式。特别是，我们力求探讨关于正式和非正式礼拜场所、宗教仪式和象征以及日常做法、表达方式和关系的经验、看法和谈判，重点将放在雅典的两个特定穆斯林群体：最近抵达的巴基斯坦移民（他们构成希腊最大的穆斯林移民社区）和来自色雷斯土著少数民族的国内穆斯林移民。这种比较的理由回应了需要综合帐户的“移民”和“少数民族”，以了解宗教的作用，作为一个“标记”的集体认同，这些不同的群体之间的互动模式和他们的地方正在进行的辩论伊斯兰教在希腊。从这个意义上说，我们的研究还将解决在一个国家的民族神话基本上是在反对（奥斯曼/土耳其）穆斯林'他者'和（东正教）教会没有从法律上分离的国家的公共领域承认穆斯林身份的政治。这项研究将有助于目前围绕伊斯兰教在欧洲的地位进行的辩论，目前欧盟正在向有土著穆斯林人口的国家扩大，对移民融入社会的政策日益关注，特别是对穆斯林的关注，以及部分涉及全球恐怖主义政治的歧视性和排斥性框架。我们之前的申请被评为A+，我们被邀请重新提交。对原始版本进行了修订，以纳入我们在此期间就这一专题进行的初步工作中出现的问题，并考虑到审查人员的意见。特别是，根据其中一位评审员（评审ID：150497）的建议，我们将PI的时间百分比从80%降至60%，将Co-I的时间百分比从60%降至40%。我们的穆斯林在希腊的创新帐户将通过定性方法和分析工具，包括访谈，观察性研究，相关学术文献，新闻文章和官方统计数据的审查相结合的探索。该项目将建立在研究团队在研究希腊移民和穆斯林少数民族方面的经验和专业知识的基础上，并将受益于与雅典社区组织已经建立的联系。该主题预计会引起敏感问题，涉及到一些参与者的法律的地位和边缘性，因此，在进行实地研究时，伦理考虑将是至关重要的。该研究将产生学术相关的产出，以及与希腊穆斯林社区组织相关的产出。
