“…According to Berkmann (2022), these cases, especially Grzelak, show that "the opt-out clause does not suffice anymore". Moreover, this changing position might complicate the development of coherent European religious education policy (see Hendek & Fancourt, 2021;Kaymakcan & Hendek, 2022). ded One can also argue that the centrality of the right of withdrawal in ECtHR's judgements on religious education might contradict the ECtHR's assertion that "Article 2 of Protocol No.…”

“…Toledo Guiding Principles even suggest establishing "advisory bodies" which will involve "in the preparation and implementation of curricula" (OSCE, 2007, p. 16). Parents, religious and non-religious communities, educational non-governmental organisations and teacher associations are suggested as possible members of these advisory bodies (see Kaymakcan & Hendek, 2022), but Toledo Guiding Principles also warn that the content of religious education "should be based on sound scholarship, and not merely on what religious communities want said about themselves and others" (OSCE, 2007, pp. 64-65).…”

Avrupa’daki devlet okullarındaki din eğitimi, ilgili uluslararası insan hakları sözleşmelerinde ifade edilen ve ilgili davalara bakan Avrupa İnsan Hakları Mahkemesi gibi uluslararası mahkemelerin içtihatlarına uygun olmalıdır. Ayrıca, özellikle son yıllarda Avrupa Konseyi ve Avrupa Güvenlik ve İş Birliği Teşkilatı gibi uluslararası kuruluşlar okullarda din eğitimi ile ilgili tavsiyeler, yönergeler ve referans kitaplar yayınlamıştır. Tutarlı ve homojen bir Avrupa din eğitimi politikası ortaya çıktığını iddia etmek için erken olmakla beraber, bu yayınlarla en azından bu yönde bir eğilimin olduğu söylenebilir. Bu açıdan makale Avrupa din eğitimi politikasını özellikle de ilkelerini incelemektedir. Bu ilkeler din eğitiminin okullardaki yeri, modeli ve amaçları, din eğitiminden muafiyet hakkı ve ilgili paydaşlarla istişaredir. Nitel bir çalışma olan bu araştırma doküman analizine dayanmaktadır. Makalede, Avrupa din eğitimi politikasının ulusal din eğitimi politikaları üzerindeki muhtemel etkisi tartışılmaktadır.

This study investigates the experiences of young members of Alevi, Christian, and Jewish religious minorities in Turkey, a secular country with a Sunni Muslim majority. Data was collected through semi structured interviews with 29 participants aged from 17 to 24. A thematic analysis was employed to explore patterns of discrimination and exclusion in their everyday lives. The experiences of Jewish and Christian participants are characterized by ostracism, increased vulnerability to injury, and passing as a member of the majority. Alevi participants report being subjected to intense pressure to become assimilated into majority Sunni practices, as well as frequent exposure to harshly unfavourable stereotypes, and ongoing rejection of Alevi theology as a ‘true’ belief system. The discussion centres on the issue of misrecognition and, particularly, denial of identity, contextualizes the findings into broader dynamics of nation‐state politics, and focuses attention on the agency of minorities and majorities. Limitations of the study and recommendations for future research have also been presented. Please refer to the Supplementary Material section to find this article's Community and Social Impact Statement.
