| 520 | |a This article concerns the role and significance of religion in the lives of two South Asian migrant groups in the town of Walsall, West Midlands. Many studies dealing with ethnic group dynamics have seen religion solely in terms of its ability to answer needs and serve purposes and, consequently, religion is represented as a passive cultural object that is shaped and manipulated by external forces. Such perspectives do not take account of the fact that religion is also a source of value and meaning, often of ultimate value and meaning, which can determine group behaviour and identity. As an active rather than passive participant in the migration experience, religion interacts with other elements of the ethnic tradition in order to regulate and shape the changes made necessary by the new environment. The article seeks to demonstrate that interactive process by focusing on the experience that members of these two ethno‐religious groups have had of dealing with death. The double crisis experience of death in a strange land provides an intense context in which to study the interaction between needs, resources and values. | ||
