Produktinformationen zu „Rebuilding Religious Experience “
Vietnamese Catholic refugees enter into a process in the United States of
culture negotiation that brings together their history as a colonized people in
Vietnam, the experience of refugee resettlement, and a unique appropriation
of the Christian doctrine of the Trinity. This latter theological perspective
helps the Vietnamese American Catholic community mediate their Confucianbased
relationships and the new relationships into which they must enter in
the United States. This appropriation also balances apparent internal inconsistencies
in the doctrine that become evident in new cultural settings--in this
instance, the encounter between Eastern and Western cultures. As Vietnamese
Catholics remain and grow in America, they continue this cultural
negotiation between their previous home and their new one. In doing so,
they make a unique contribution both to a multicultural American Catholic
Church and to our wider understanding of how refugees rebuild their worlds.
