An in-depth study of selected refugees from Ethiopia, Iraq, Somalia
and Sudan, this book examines the relationship between the
refugees' religious and spiritual beliefs and the refugee
experience. Susan P. Ennis takes a close look at the circumstances
of refugees' flight, their asylum, and their initial period of
settlement in Melbourne, Australia during the period between the
1990s and the early twenty-first century. Ennis finds that a sense
of religiosity seemed to aid the refugees, in some way, during all
stages of their journey. Furthermore, nearly half of the refugees
she studied reported a shift in their religiosity over the course
of their emigration. Based on her research, Ennis puts forward a
framework of religiosity and the refugee experience based on
shifting typologies at each stage of the refugee journey.
