Abstract
Turkish workers who emigrated from their country to Germany could reunify with their families; and now their descendants live there as German citizens. During turmoils and wars in The Middle East, Africa and Bosnia and Herzegovina many people fled their countries and immigrated to Germany as refugees and asylum seekers. Most of the refugees were Muslim and they all built their own communities, mosques and businesses as Turks had done before. They are Muslims; however, they have different cultures, languages, and denominations. They have had differences among themselves, moreover after decades of living in Germany their successful integration is still a question. We present a historical overview of the integration of Muslims in Germany, discuss the reasons for its failure and highlight the fears that non-Muslims and Muslims face in an increasingly Muslim society. We argue that in the future, society will have to face these fears, not to suppress them, but to take them seriously and find ways to allay them and thus ensure peaceful coexistence between people of different worldviews in a Western multicultural society.

Title:Vprašljiva integracija muslimanskih priseljencev v Nemčiji
Abstract:
Turški delavci, ki so iz svoje države emigrirali v Nemčijo, so se lahko ponovno združili s svojimi družinami, in danes njihovi potomci tam živijo kot nemški državljani. Med nemiri in vojnami na Bližnjem vzhodu, v Afriki ter Bosni in Hercegovini je veliko ljudi pobegnilo iz svojih držav in so kot begunci ter iskalci azila prispeli v Nemčijo. Večina teh beguncev je bila muslimanske veroizpovedi in vsi so si, tako kot prej Turki, ustvarili svoje skupnosti, mošeje in podjetja. So muslimani; vendar imajo različne kulture, jezike in veroizpovedi. Med njimi so razlike, poleg tega pa je tudi po desetletjih življenja v Nemčiji njihova uspešna integracija še vedno vprašljiva. Predstavljamo zgodovinski pregled integracije muslimanov v Nemčiji, razpravljamo o razlogih za njen neuspeh in izpostavljamo strahove, s katerimi se soočajo nemuslimani in muslimani v vse bolj muslimanski družbi. Zagovarjamo stališče, da se bo morala družba v prihodnosti soočiti s temi strahovi ne zato, da bi jih zatrla, temveč da bi jih vzela resno in poiskala načine, kako jih pomiriti ter tako zagotoviti mirno sobivanje med ljudmi različnih svetovnih nazorov v zahodni multikulturni družbi.
