New publication: Asylum and Conversion to Christianity in Europe: Interdisciplinary Approaches
Dr Lena Rose is co-editor of the edited volume Asylum and Conversion to Christianity in Europe: Interdisciplinary Approaches (Bloomsbury, 2024, with Ebru Öztürk).
The volume shows how the boundaries of belonging are negotiated between former Muslim asylum seekers from the Middle East, church representatives, lawyers, judges and asylum decision-makers.
Using case studies from European countries such as Germany, Austria, Finland and Sweden, the book adopts an interdisciplinary approach that includes ethnographic and other qualitative research, discourse analysis and case analysis to examine the complexity of the phenomenon of asylum and conversion from Islam to Christianity.
