Recenzii
This remarkably rich edited collection identifies and analyzes the ways in which refugees as well as the nation-states that either welcome or reject them draw on multiple religious traditions to make sense of their unsanctioned mobility. The authors demonstrate that refugee predicaments are not wholly defined by modern ideas of citizenship, belonging, and rights, and that religion is the canopy under which many debates about refugees and refuge find their richest idiom.
A timely volume offering deeply embedded understandings of religion and refugees in the European context. With ethnographic precision and robust historical framing, the volume challenges secularist approaches with case studies that demonstrate the real-world power and effects of religion in host societies and within refugee groups alike.
The question of refugees has not been extensively studied with particular attention to religion. Birgit Meyer and Peter van der Veer's edited volume addresses this gap with an excellent series of ethnographic and historically informed cases that cover multiple geographies and time-periods.
