Research

So, on many of my previous posts I have sammelte (collected) sources and contacts for research both here and in Berlin. To recap:

  1. Meeting with The Left Party (Die Linke) and possibly the Social Democrats (Sozial Demokratische Partei)
  2. Meeting with the head of the Islamic Community organization in Germany (Hamburg)
  3. Meeting with community and business leaders in Kreuzberg with Turkish ties
  4. Talking to faculty at the Politikwissenschaft/ Poli Sci dept. at HUBerlin
  5. After meeting with the above, I will determine if other meetings within Islamic organizations will be feasible. I have experience with these groups in Berlin previously, but this may come down to how much time I have.
All of the above interviews shall be conducted in German as that is the primary language of the contacts (and Turkish, for some).

Prior to heading to Berlin my research here involves a correspondence with Political Science graduate students and professors researching Muslims in Europe, and heeding their advice for where to go with my research. Additionally I will be thoroughly researching the language and intricacies of the 2005 headscarf/integration legislation that was passed, before I embark, so that I may ask pertinent questions without offending my interviewees. Furthermore, I have been avidly perusing NYT pieces on Turkey, Deutschtürken, and Turkish-Kuridsh relations so that I have a background knowledge on which to build my research foundation.

Und so weiter und so fort aber ich glaub das reicht für jetzt.

Ich glaub' es hackt!
