Beschreibung:
Hussam S. Timani is associate professor of philosophy and religious studies and Codirector of the Middle East and North Africa Studies Program at Christopher Newport University in Newport News, Virginia.
Strangers in This World brings together a consortium of scholars to reflect on the religious, political, anthropological, and social realities of immigration through the prism of the historical and theological resources, insights, and practices across an array of religious traditions. The volume, reflecting the diversity of religious cultures, is nevertheless unified in arguing that immigration is an important aspect of the major religions at their core and connects to vital points of theological reflection and practice in Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Native American religious traditions.
