Research Project "Salafism in Germany"

The project "Salafism in Germany" presents six informational videos and a HSFK-Report series

The Research Project "Salafism in Germany" aims to contribute to a better understanding of Salafism and Jihadism in Germany. PRIF identifies the existing demand for consultation within politics, administration and society, develops appropriate instruments of knowledge-transfer and coordinates cooperation among various experts. Detailed information on the project can be found at a separate project website: http://salafismus.hsfk.de (an english version is currently under construction).

 

Following the publication of a HSFK-Standpunkt, an article series on the Sicherheitspolitik-Blog and an corresponding eBook, the project now releases a series of short videos and publishes the HSFK-Report series "Salafismus in Deutschland".

 

The six videos offer knowledge about various dimensions of Salafism and Jihadism in Germany. Experts explain the fundamentals of the topics, introduce current trends and make recommendations for action.

 

The series "Salafism in Germany" offers a differentiated view on Salafism and Jihadism in Germany with six HSFK-Reports. The interdisciplinary teams of authors combine scientific and practical expertise.

The following Reports are available for free download or can be ordered at PRIF for 6€ (in German only):
