Romanian Orthodox Diaspora in Italy
Eastern Orthodoxy in a Western European Country
Inbunden, Engelska, 2022
325 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This book provides a sociological understanding of transformations within Eastern Orthodoxy and the settlement of Orthodox diasporas in Western Europe. Building a fresh framework on religion and migration through the lenses of religious glocalization, it explores the Romanian Orthodox diaspora in Italy as a case study in the experience of Eastern Orthodoxy in a Western European country. The research brings to light the Romanian Orthodox diaspora’s reshaping of the more customary social traditionalism largely spread within Eastern Orthodoxy. In its position as an immigrant group and religious minority, the Romanian Orthodox diaspora develops socio-cultural and religious encounters with the receiving environment and engages with certain contemporary challenges.This book refutes the vague image of Orthodox Christianity as a monolithic religious system composed of passive religious institutions, rather showing current Orthodox diasporas as flexible agents markedby dynamic features.

Over the past two decades, Romanian immigration to the Italian Peninsula has grown to nearly a quarter of the country’s foreign population, making it the largest Romanian diaspora in the world. This volume is the first to examine the religious dimension of this vast migratory phenomenon from multiple perspectives, including sociology, anthropology, ethnology, history, and theology.The chapters study the patterns and transformations of Romanian Churches and Christian movements in Italy, with particular attention to the Romanian Orthodox Church, the Romanian Roman Catholic Church, the Romanian Greek-Catholic Church, and the Romanian Pentecostal Church. They also analyze how these immigrant Churches and religious movements engage with Italian society and respond to contemporary challenges.Drawing on the study of the Romanian diaspora and grounded in a multidisciplinary perspective, this volume develops the notion of immigrant Christianities. The latter provides a heuristic framework for highlighting the growing entanglements and transformative dynamics shaping the multiplicity of immigrant Churches and Christian movements in the contemporary world.

This book explores the roles of religion in the current refugee crisis of Europe. Combining sociological, philosophical, and theological accounts of this crisis, renowned scholars from across Europe examine how religion has been employed to call either for eliminating or for enforcing the walls around “Fortress Europe.” Religion, they argue, is radically ambiguous, simultaneously causing social conflict and social cohesion in times of turmoil. Charting the constellations, the conflicts, and the consequences of the current refugee crisis, this book thus answers the need for succinct but sustained accounts of the intersections of religion and migration.
