Gewalt durch religiöse Gruppen

  • Chapter
Book cover Internationales Handbuch der Gewaltforschung

Zusammenfassung

In der Geschichte und in den heutigen Gesellschaften waren und sind Verbindungen zwischen religiösen Gruppen und Gewalt weit verbreitet, jedoch finden diese erst seit kurzem eine systematische Beachtung bei Sozialwissenschaftlern (Candland 1992). Die Nichtbeachtung ist zum Teil auf das zurückzuführen, was Edward Shils als „the blindness of the social sciences to tradition“ bezeichnete (1981: 14). Die Engstirnigkeit innerhalb der Disziplinen Theologie und Religionswissenschaften sowie die von der Säkularisierung und der Trennung von „Kirche“ und „Staat“ in der westlichen Welt ausgehenden sozialwissenschaftlichen Paradigmen haben die komplexen wechselseitigen Beeinflussungen zwischen religiöser Tradition und politischem und gesellschaftlichem Handeln verdeckt, einschließlich der Möglichkeiten religiöser Gruppen und ihrer Mitglieder, Gewalt hervorzurufen, zu legitimieren, auszuüben oder zu verhindern.
