machen, welche Stärken Kirche und Religiosität in Blick auf Vorurteile bieten. [Between Charity and Isolation. An Interdisciplinary Study on Church and Political Culture] For quite some time, the EKD has been addressing the themes of church and right-wing populism and extremism, and increasing misanthropic attitudes in Germany. In 2019, the EKD decided to support three studies that, from various social science perspectives, shed light on the connection between church membership, religiosity, political culture and structures of prejudice. This volume documents the final reports of a representative population survey, a qualitative analysis of connections between theological argumentation and narratives of prejudice-related communication and online hate speech ("hate mails"), and an ethnographic case study on political and cultural challenges in exemplary church communities. The three studies have yielded abundant findings that shed light on the connection between church membership or religiosity and prejudices. They show where church action is needed, but also make clear which strengths the church and religiosity offer with regard to prejudices.
