This book is the first to analyze the impacts of migration and
transnationalism on global Catholicism. It explores how migration
and transnationalism are producing diverse spaces and encounters
that are moulding the Roman Catholic Church as institution and
parish, pilgrimage and network, community and people. Bringing
together established and emerging scholars of sociology,
anthropology, geography, history and theology, it examines
migrants' religious transnationalism, but equally the effects of
migration-related-diversity on non-migrant Catholics and the Church
itself. This timely edited collection is organised around a series
of theoretical frameworks for understanding the intersections of
migration and Catholicism, with case studies from 17 different
countries and contexts. The extent to which migrants' religiosity
transforms Catholicism, and the negotiations of unity in diversity
within the Roman Catholic Church, are key themes throughout. This
innovative approach will appeal to scholars of migration,
transnationalism, religion, theology, and diversity.
