Earlier research showed that religion is related to participation
among adolescents. It emphasized the effects of belonging (affiliation to groups and traditions) on community service among Western populations. This article takes one step further and focuses on religiosity as a potential motivation for community problem solving during adolescence and young adulthood, in the Eastern European Orthodox cultural setting. Data comes from several semistructured interviews with participants in a civic project conducted in the city of Timisoara (Romania). Findings indicated a low impact of the social religious component on engagement. The cognitive dimension of belief and the emotional bonding (prayer, ritual connection to the higher reality) function as indirect motivators, through the moral element of behavior. Results also showed a privatization of spiritual life at young adults (the invisible religion): estrangement from doctrines and the development of an individualistic type of morality, meant to drive volunteer activities further.
Ziel der Arbeit ist es, die Formen der Einmündung Jugendlicher in rechtsextreme Szenen sowie die hierbei ablaufenden sozialen Prozesse zu beleuchten. Der interkulturelle Vergleich zwischen Deutschland und den USA unterstützt die Erkenntnis, dass hierbei in erster Linie keine Länderspezifika, sondern Rekrutierungsstrategien rechter Szenen relevant sind, welche auf ähnliche Weise an Faktoren ansetzen, die in beiden Ländern vorzufinden sind.
