Dissertation Project

Jewish religious education is always about the relationship of the "religious" to a distinct social factor, which is why learning processes must also be reflected in the context of religious traditions and a social environment. In Jewish religious education, the subjective identity formation of pupils is to be described in this context. In the dissertation, this subject reference of the learning process between sociality and religion is to be theoretically located.
