This book provides a sociological understanding of transformations
within Eastern Orthodoxy and the settlement of Orthodox diasporas
in Western Europe. Building a fresh framework on religion and
migration through the lenses of religious glocalization, it
explores the Romanian Orthodox diaspora in Italy as a case study in
the experience of Eastern Orthodoxy in a Western European country.
The research brings to light the Romanian Orthodox diaspora's
reshaping of the more customary social traditionalism largely
spread within Eastern Orthodoxy. In its position as an immigrant
group and religious minority, the Romanian Orthodox diaspora
develops socio-cultural and religious encounters with the receiving
environment and engages with certain contemporary challenges. This
book refutes the vague image of Orthodox Christianity as a
monolithic religious system composed of passive religious
institutions, rather showing current Orthodox diasporas as flexible
agents marked by dynamic features.
