The myth of the ‘securitised Muslim community’: the social impact of post-9/11 counter-terrorist law and policy in the west

This chapter attempts to develop an understanding of the moral conditions of secular society by tracing its history. The social impact of the secularization process only really became visible in the 1960s. After the earlier separation of church and state, religion in the West also pulled back on a societal level. Historically and culturally that is quite a unique situation, about which the last word has not yet been said. Many churches emptied, but attention to religion is everywhere. Is this because of Islam? How should we relate to religion and its new visibility? The chapter considers secularization since the 1960s as a large-scale field experiment with morality.

National image is a clear information perception of a country in the international community, reecting a country's international inuence and comprehensive national power. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the dramatic changes in the international order and landscape. As a result, there is a widespread perception in the West that the current international order has not only encountered serious challenges from emerging powers but has also led to confusion in the perception of globalisation within the West. Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the breadth and depth of attention paid to "China" in the German mainstream media have continued to rise. This study will further investigate how the image of China is constructed in cross-cultural media communication, based on the national image of China in German mainstream media coverage of China during the COVID-19 Pandemic and ideological analysis of the discursive contexts in which it is produced. This paper is basically structured as a review of the traditions and rules of the German press, an analysis of the operational characteristics of the German press industry under the COVID-19 pandemic, the social impact of German media coverage on China, and an analysis of this news production mechanism, followed by an analysis of the game between the Chinese and Western value systems and discourse power displayed by the German media during the COVID-19 pandemic, an analysis of the value orientation of the German media towards the construction of China's national image. This is followed by an academic exploration of the background and public opinion effects of the " China Phobia ". This paper also examines the changes in the social structure of Germany as a result of the pandemic, Sino-German and Sino-European relations in the context of the Sino-American conict, and the evolution of a sense of "sovereign Europe" and the current international order.

Meskipun setiap sarjana memberikan definisi yang berbeza antara satu sama lain, namun pada asasnya mereka bersependapat bahawa kaunseling merupakan suatu proses interaksi yang bermotifkan memberi khidmat bimbingan, pertolongan serta bantuanoleh seseorang yang mempunyai kelayakan tertentu iaitu kaunselor sebagai pembimbing kepada individu yang menghadapi masalah yang disebut sebagai klien. Kaunseling merupakan satu proses interaksi bersemuka dalam bentuk membimbing, menolong dan membantu antara dua pihak. Bidang kaunseling dan kerja sosial mempunyai sejarahnya yang tersendiri. Kedua-dua bidang ini bermula dan berkembang sebagai satu disiplin ilmu di Barat. Kompetensi pengamal kedua-dua bidang ini juga dipantau oleh badan yang dibentuk. Teori kerja sosial dan kaunseling berkongsi laluan pembangunan yang sama iaitu daripada bidang psikologi dan sosiologi. Selain mejadi satu bidang disiplin ilmu yang tersendiri, kaunseling juga digunakan dalam praktis kerja sosial. Penulisan ini adalah merupakan suatu usaha untuk melihat kaunseling dari aspek hadith Nabawi. Meskipun bidang kaunseling merupakan suatu bidang yang diperkenalkan oleh para sarjana Barat, namun asas-asas pemikiran kaunseling dapat dilihat dan diteliti melalui beberapa hadith Rasulullah s.a.w. Perbezaan pandangan jagat terhadap sumber ilmu juga merupakan perkara pokok wujudnya perbandingan antara kaunseling yang diamalkan dalam masyarakat Barat dengan kaunseling yang diamalkan dalam masyarakat Islam. Penelitian secara umum dapat dilihat dalam penulisan ini. Penulisan ini merumuskan bahawa Islam bukan hanya melihat kaunseling sebagai kerjaya semata-mata akan tetapi ia adalah sebagai suatu ibadat yang perlu dilakukan oleh individu-individu yang berkelayakan.ABSTRACTAlthough there are a number of definitions given, it is essentially agreed that counselling is a process of interaction that is motivated to providing assistance by a person who has certain qualifications such as counsellor as a guide to an individual who has a problem namely a client. Counselling is a face-to-face interaction process in the form of guiding, helping and giving advice between two parties. The field of counselling and social work has its own history. Both fields started and grow as a discipline in the West. The practitioners' competencies of these two fields are also monitored by the established bodies. Social work theory and counselling share the same path of development that is from psychology and sociology. In addition to being a separate discipline, counselling is also used in the social work practice. This writing is an attempt to see the aspects of counselling in hadith of Nabawi. Although the field of counselling is introduced by Western scholars, however, the foundations of counselling ideas can be viewed and studied through some of the hadith of Rasulullah s.a.w. Differences in the universal view about the source of knowledge are also a central point of comparison between the practices of counselling between the Western and Muslim community. This article concludes that Islam not only looks at counselling as a mere career but also as an act of worship that needs to be done by qualified individuals.
