Israel-related identity constructions in Christian neo-charismatic organizations

01/09/2025 to 31/08/2028

The focus of this empirical research is on philo-Semitic and Christian-Zionist Israel-related identity constructions in selected Evangelical-Neocharismatic communities in German-speaking contexts. Such constructions will be made visible and analysed in a qualitative-empirical project through an ethnographic reconstruction and reflection of religious practices, discursive formations and social interactions. The analysis of Israel-related identity constructions will focus on various phenomena of human differentiation. Identity constructions of a neo-charismatic We-group, the image of Judaism and Israel projected there, and other recognisable human categorisations (gender, nationality, religious affiliation) will also be reconstructed and analysed.
