Immigration is one of the most hotly debated topics today. But, the
question involves more than politics and emotion; it includes such
critical issues as law, justice, human rights, human dignity, and
freedom. Strangers in This World is a collection that brings
together an international consortium of scholars to reflect on the
religious, political, anthropological, and social realities of
immigration through the prism of the historical and theological
resources, insights, and practices across an array of religious
traditions. The volume, reflecting the diversity of religious
cultures, is nevertheless unified in arguing that immigration is an
important aspect of the major religions and is found at their core.
The contributors unfold this important dimension of the religious
traditions and explore the ways that the theme of immigration
connects to vital points of theological reflection and practice in
Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Native
American religious traditions. At root, the volume is about our
collective journey together as immigrant peoples who have stories
and settlements to share, as well as challenges and struggles to
overcome, that may be faced through the resources our many faiths
offer.
