218 | www.limina-graz.eu ̟ Which radical religious communities and groups of different af- filiations are currently predominantly active in Europe? How does religious fundamentalism currently manifest itself? What are the driving forces? How is this addressed within theology? What role do political, cultural and societal factors play and in how far do in- terreligious and interdenominational polarisations and confronta- tions contribute to the emergence and rising prevalence of funda- mentalist tendencies? How are religious fundamentalism and na- tionalist movements connected? ̟ What are the tactics currently employed by fundamentalist com- munities and groups in order to communicate and implement their principles and goals? Which discursive and practical methods do they use to increase their following? What strategies are successful or unsuccessful? ̟ What countermeasures are being put in place by religious and sec- ular institutions? Are there specific measures that can curb and deescalate rising fundamentalism? Are these successful or do they cause further polarisation and radicalisation? What role do the church, religious communities, theology, religious education and ethics play and assume in the face of new forms of fundamental- ism? Are there examples where deradicalization of religious ex- tremists and fundamentalist groups has been successful? What was essential for their success and what can we learn from them?
