Mobilizing Religion: Networks and Mobility

2nd Crossroads Asia Conference to be held on July 18-19, 2013 in Bonn

The 2nd major Crossroads Asia Conference will be held in July 2013 at IOA Bonn.

This conference aims to assess forms of social, spatial and mental mobility and networks from the perspective of different disciplines as well as to work out the role religion plays in these in the region covered by Crossroads Asia’s research activities:

• Religion as a mobilizing factor in conflicts,
• Religious elements as symbolic capital in exchange processes in networks/figurations,
• Islamic institutions/networks as part of translocal figurations,
• Religious aspects in the cognitive concepts of “migration”, “belonging” and “home”.
