Produktinformationen zu „Religion and Immigration / PIMS - Polity Immigration and Society series Bd.1 (ePub)“
This concise book provides readers with a comprehensive overview
and critical assessment of the key issues and varied strands of
research relating to immigration and religion that have been
produced during the past two decades.
Religion, once a neglected topic in migration studies, is today
seen as a crucially important aspect of the immigrant experience.
For some - particularly those focusing on religion in North America
- religion has been portrayed as a vital resource for many
immigrants engaged in the essential identity work required in
adjusting to the receiving society. For others - particularly those
who have focused on Muslim immigrants in Western Europe - religion
tends to be depicted as a source of conflict rather than one of
comfort and consolation.
In a judicious, engaging, and highly readable account, this book
sorts through these contrasting viewpoints, pointing to an approach
that will assist upper-level students and scholars alike in putting
these competing analyses into perspective.
