"Religion ist eher ein trennender Faktor"

12 January 2016

Interview mit Ruud Koopmans

"Religion ist eher ein trennender Faktor. Sie führt zur Isolierung von der Gesellschaft, vor allem dann, wenn sie orthodox und konservativ gelebt wird", sagt Ruud Koopmans, Direktor der Abteilung Migration, Integration, Transnationalisierung in einem Interview mit der evangelischen Zeitschrift "Zeitzeichen". Themen des lesenswerten Interviews sind unter anderem die Rolle der Religion für den Integrationsprozess und die Voraussetzungen für eine gelungene Einwanderung.

LATINNO: Innovations for Democracy in Latin America

LATINNO is the first comprehensive database documenting participatory innovations in Latin America. The project collects and analyzes data on (non-electoral) forms of citizen participation in 18 countries from 1990 to 2020. Cases are registered according to 43 variables that capture their context, institutional design and impact, and comprise innovations relying on deliberation, direct voting, e-participation and new forms of citizen representation.

The main purpose of the project is to investigate what makes democratic innovations effective in Latin America, and to which extent they can (or can't) enhance the different dimensions of the quality of democracy: responsiveness, accountability, the rule of law, political inclusion and social equality.
