integration in German society, or Europe in general, is a challenge. But the
pop culture industry and humour can make a difference and really make a
change.", Benjamin Nickl
Turkish
German comedy culture and the lived realities of Turkish Muslims in Germany
Comedy entertainment is a powerful arena for serious
public engagement with questions of German national identity and Turkish German
migration. The German majority society and its largest labour migrant community
have been asking for decades what it means to be German and what it means for
Turkish Germans, Muslims of the second and third generations, to call Germany
their home. Benjamin Nickl examines through the social pragmatics of humour the
dynamics that underpin these questions in the still-evolving popular culture
space of German mainstream humour in the 21st century. The first book-length
study on the topic to combine close readings of film, television, literary and
online comedy, and transnational culture studies, Turkish German Muslims and Comedy Entertainment presents the
argument that Turkish German humour has moved from margin to mainstream by
intervening in cultural incompatibility and Islamophobia discourse.
