About the Book

This volume looks at how religious identity and symbolic ethnicity influence migration. Religion – Christianity – was an important factor in European transatlantic migrations; religion – Islam – is a major issue in the immigration debate in “post-secular” Germany (and Europe) today. Essays focus on German missionaries and their efforts in the eighteenth century to establish new communal forms of living with Native Americans as religious encounters. In a comparative fashion, Islamic transnational migration into Germany in the twenty-first century is explored in a second group of essays that look at Muslim populations in Germany. They provide an insight into the ongoing discussions in Germany about modern migration and the role of religion. This volume is of interest to all who are engaged in issues of historical and contemporary migration, in Cultural and German Studies.

Review :
”Das Interessanteste dieses für den englisch sprechenden Raum bestimmten Bandes ist die Idee, eine Verbindung herzustellen zwischen der Einwanderung von islamisch geprägten Gruppen in die westliche Welt im 20. und 21. Jahrhundert und dort die Bildung von Zellen, Gettos, Parallelgesellschaften zu vergleichen mit der christlichen weltweiten Missionierung seit dem 16. Jahrhundert, etwa in Amerika oder Südostindien. […] Das kühne Unterfangen, Distanz zur aktuellen Islamdebatte herzustellen durch die Frage, wie eigentlich das Eindringen christlicher Zellen etwa in die indianische Kultur in den Jahrhunderten seit der Entdeckung Amerikas vor sich ging, schlägt einen weiten Bogen von den Religionskriegen des 16. Jahrhunderts in Europa über die protestantischen und protestantisch pietistischen Einwanderer nach Nordamerika im 17. bis 19. Jahrhundert bis zu den Einwanderern aus islamisch geprägten Gesellschaften nach Deutschland im 20. Jahrhundert. Becker-Cantarino begründet in ihrem Einleitungsaufsatz, dass Deutschland wegen seines großen türkischen Bevölkerungsanteils ausgewählt wird. […] Der Sammelband besticht durch den weiten Rahmen, der die gesamte Geschichte der Neuzeit umfasst. Alles ist sehr gründlich recherchiert. Man erstaunt, wieviel neue Literatur allein im letzten Jahrzehnt erschienen ist. Hier Leistungen und Tendenzen knapp und informativ darzustellen, ist sehr wertvoll. Allein die Forschungen zum Pietismus sind seit Ritschels dreibändiger Darstellung von 1880/86 uferlos.” in: Literaturkritik DE (2014)
