The current refugee crisis sweeping Europe, and much of the world,
closely intersects with largely neglected questions of religion.
Moving beyond discussions of religious differences, what can we
learn about the interaction between religion and migration? Do
faith-based organisations play a role within the refugee regime?
How do religious traditions and perspectives challenge and inform
current practices and policies towards refugees? This volume
gathers together expertise from academics and practitioners, as
well as migrant voices, in order to investigate these
interconnections. It shows that reconsidering our understanding and
approaches to both could generate creative alternative responses to
the growing global migration crisis. Beginning with a discussion of
the secular/religious divide - and how it shapes dominant policy
practices and counter approaches to displacement and migration -
the book then goes on to explore and deconstruct the dominant
discourse of the Muslim refugee as a threat to the
secular/Christian West. The discussion continues with an
exploration of Christian and Islamic traditions of hospitality,
showing how they challenge current practices of securitization of
migration, and concludes with an investigation of the largely
unexplored relation between gender, religion and migration.
Bringing together leading and emerging voices from across academia
and practice, in the fields of International Relations, migration
studies, philosophy, religious studies and gender studies, this
volume offers a unique take on one of the most pressing global
problems of our time.
