This book focuses on the interconnections of religion and migration
in the Black Sea region through case studies that explore shifting
identities, community, and national boundaries, as well as social
practices and networks. During the past few decades the Black Sea
has been transformed from a largely closed region, due to the Cold
War, to a bridge for human, economic, and cultural capital flows.
As the region opened up, understandings and practices of religion
were re-signified due to new and diverse mobilities and
resettlements. This volume addresses and responds to the current
scarcity of academic research on the repercussion of political
reform, migration, and modernization in the areas surrounding the
Black Sea. Contributors uncover and examine the pivotal role of
religion in current cultural contestations taking place in this
strategic region. Engaging with a wide range of case studies, the
book offers a fresh, comparative examination of migration as it
relates to different countries and religious groups in the region.
Up until the 1990s, when the EU launched film policies intended to
encourage political and cultural collaboration among its member
states, film production was based on the cultural and national
values of individual nations. Coproducing Europe explores the
impact of these EU policies on the coproduction networks that now
serve as a driving force in contemporary creative economies. By
focusing on regional film markets in Thessasloniki, Sarajevo, and
Tbilisi, this comparative ethnography looks beyond the economic
nature of film coproductions to their role in Europeanisation,
memories of the Cold War, and preconstructed political agendas.
