This collection brings together legal scholars and Christian theologians for an interdisciplinary conversation responding to the challenges of global migration. Gathering 14 leading scholars from both law and Christian theology, the book covers legal perspectives, theological perspectives, and key concepts in migration studies. In Part 1, scholars of migration law and policy discuss the legal landscape of migration at both the domestic and international level.

The work provides a truly interdisciplinary introduction to the topic of migration for those who are new to the subject; an opportunity for immigration lawyers and legal scholars to engage Christian theology; an opportunity for pastors and Christian theologians to engage law; and new insights on key frameworks for scholars who are already committed to the study of migration.

Dialogue Not Dogma

Many Voices in the Gospel of Luke

Lukan scholars offer varying responses to the issue of divergent viewpoints in the gospel regarding the identity of Jesus, wealth, women, and the emphasis on doing vis-vis hearing. Many forms of criticism attempt to explain or harmonize these apparent contradictions. Conversely, Raj Nadella argues that there is no dominant viewpoint in Luke and that the divergence in viewpoints is a unique literary feature to be celebrated rather than a problem to be solved. Nadella interprets selected Lukan passages in light of Bakhtinian concepts such as dialogism, loophole, and exotopy to show that the disparate perspectives, and interplay between them, display Lukes superior literary skills rather than his inability to produce a coherent work. Luke emerges as a work akin to Dostoevskys Brothers Karamazov that accommodates competing views on several issues and allows them to enter into an unfinalizable dialogue as equal partners.

The series places Christianity in its social, cultural, political and economic context.

Postcolonial Biblical criticism has emerged as a major field of study in the last twenty-five years and has influenced conversations in biblical studies in significant ways. The postcolonial lens has brought the context of Empire in which the Bible was formed and the various ways in which biblical texts not only respond to their biblical milieu but were also shaped by them to the fore.The book examines the origin, impact and relevance of the growing field of postcolonial biblical studies, calling attention to the legacies associated with the Bible and the challenges for reading it today. Beginning with the arrival of postcolonial criticism into the field of biblical studies, Nadella and Vernyl Davidson reveal how these issues have challenged presumptions made by Western biblical scholars and how postcolonial criticism can be related to contemporary biblical studies. In addition to the overview of the field, new topics including sexuality and ecological studies are addressed, enabling the reader to understand the Bible's role in the history of empire as well as its contribution to contemporary attempts to loosen the grip of academic imperial thought.
