Description
Summary:"Going beyond the dominant patterns of western and Christian perspectives, The Bloomsbury Handbook of Religion and Migration gives attention to other voices and minorities, marginal groups and communities. Contributors present the story of religion and migration predominantly through non-Christian experiences and mainly those of Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, and Buddhists. Intersectional issues including race, ethnicity, class, gender and generation are considered throughout. Chapters represent global religious traditions and regions from Canada to Ireland, to Indonesia and India to China to East Africa and New Zealand. Religion and migration is approached from a variety of theoretical and methodological vantage points. Many chapters are grounded in embodied ethnography including participant observation fieldwork, interviewing, oral history collection and qualitative analysis, and draw on sociological and anthropological theory and non-western and historical approaches to religion. In-depth chapters chronicle migration in regional and transnational contexts examining institutionally based and everyday religiosity, religion across generations, and in multicultural and populist contexts. The volume includes chapters on Islam and Muslim identity, Chinese and Vietnamese Buddhism, Filipino and Korean religiosity and Polish Catholicism, multiculturalism and populism."--
