How the Alevi community came to thrive in Germany
The Alevi religious community, Turkey's second-largest, has established a significant presence in Germany with over 200 organizations. Alevism blends Shiite Islam, mysticism, and shamanism, emphasizing humanism and equality, and differs from Sunni Islam in rituals like the Cem ceremony. Historically persecuted in the Ottoman Empire and modern Turkey, events like the 1993 Sivas arson attack spurred Alevi self-organization in Germany, where the community is now recognized in some states and supports academic study and cultural preservation through institutes and archives.
