The South Asian Christian diaspora is largely invisible in the
literature about religion and migration. This is the first
comprehensive study of South Asian Christians living in Europe and
North America, presenting the main features of these diasporas,
their community histories and their religious practices. The South
Asian Christian diaspora is pluralistic both in terms of religious
adherence, cultural tradition and geographical areas of origin.
This book gives justice to such pluralism and presents a
multiplicity of cultures and traditions typical of the South Asian
Christian diaspora. Issues such as the institutionalization of the
religious traditions in new countries, identity, the paradox of
belonging both to a minority immigrant group and a majority
religion, the social functions of rituals, attitudes to language,
generational transfer, and marriage and family life, are all
discussed.
