Asian Migrants and Religious Experience: From Missionary Journeys to Labor Mobility

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

Typically, scholars approach migrants religions as a safeguard of cultural identity, something that connects migrants to their communities of origin. This ethnographic anthology challenges that position by reframing the religious experiences of migrants as a transformative force capable of refashioning narratives of displacement into journeys of spiritual awakening and missionary calling. These essays explore migrants motivations in support of an argument that to travel inspires a search for new meaning in religion. See more
