Recenzii
"Es handelt sich um ein Werk von grundlegender und richtungweisender Bedeutung, auf dessen Konsultation niemand, der oder die sich mit dem Phänomen von christlichen Migrationsgemeinden aus dem globalen Süden in Europa beschäftigt, wird verzichten können. Wer mit dem bisherigen Engagement und den Publikationen von Claudia Währisch-Oblau im Bereich der Migrationsgemeinden in Deutschland vertraut ist, den oder die wird diese Einschätzung kaum überraschen. Die Dissertation ist nicht nur das Ergebnis einer zeitlich umgrenzten Feldforschung im engeren Sinne, sondern sie bildet gleichzeitig den vorläufigen Abschluss einer über zehnjährigen intensiven, kontinuierlichen wie Früchte tragenden Zusammenarbeit mit diesen Gemeinden im erweiterten Ruhrgebietsraum. Kaum jemand anderem
wäre es möglich gewesen, eine solche Arbeit vorzulegen, setzt sie doch neben der akademischen Kompetenz der Forscherin wesentlich ein tiefes Vertrauensverhältnis zwischen ihr und den befragten Gemeindeleitern in der Migration voraus. Die Autorin vermag aus einem reichhaltigen Erfahrungsschatz zu schöpfen."
