«Die verlorenen Söhne» is the essay by Necla Kelek, published by Kiepenheuer & Witsch in hardback (217 pages, in German).
Through interviews and biographies of Turkish-Muslim men in Germany, Necla Kelek analyses how patriarchal structures and honour codes condition their socialisation and hinder their integration. Kelek presents them as victims and perpetrators of a system that blocks women's emancipation, and calls for overcoming these traditional roles.
It won the Corine Internationaler Buchpreis 2006 in the non-fiction category.
For readers interested in the debate on integration, Islam and gender roles in contemporary German society.
