It focuses on changes in the political, legal, and social responses to religious diversity that have resulted from increased international migration and the public visibility of new religious minorities in Europe, North America, and Australia. Contributors examine contemporary theoretical debates about international migration, religious diversity and integration policy, and present original in-depth analyses of specific national contexts, allowing readers to observe social forces at work in the governance of religious diversity. These national case studies are put into comparative perspective through an examination of both international normative frameworks for policy-formulation and the impact of contemporary world events on public discourse about the relationship between religious diversity and migration." --Book Jacket.
