Welche Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede gibt es zwischen Menschen mit extremistischen oder fundamentalistischen Einstellungen? 👀

Soziologe Prof. Dr. Marc Helbling von der #UniMannheim wertete hierzu mit seinem Team in einer internationalen #Studie Umfragedaten von über 6.000 Personen aus.

🔍 Das Ergebnis: Insbesondere jüngere Männer mit niedriger #bildung, die sich als nicht wichtig genug wahrgenommen fühlen, vertreten extremistische oder fundamentalistische Positionen. Das trifft auch auf religiöse Menschen zu, unabhängig von ihrer Glaubensrichtung.

Mithilfe dieser und weiterer Erkenntnisse können wirkungsvolle Präventions- und Gegenmaßnahmen entwickelt werden.
