许多难民在背井离乡、被迫移徙和融入东道国社会的过程中，宗教和精神信仰支撑着他们。然而，在关于难民和被迫移徙者的政策辩论和方案拟订中，宗教和精神信仰几乎不存在。研究人员也倾向于忽视宗教和灵性作为情感和认知支持的来源，社会和政治表达和动员的lbrm，以及社区建设和群体认同的工具的作用。使用操作提供避难所作为一个案例研究，本文强调了宗教和精神在改善阿尔巴尼亚族人在1999年春天逃离萨格勒布的痛苦的作用，并认为，人类痛苦的精神背景应该提供理解和应对难民的痛苦的基础。它强调了难民的痛苦和由此造成的创伤与精神和宗教的交叉，并将穆斯林的主位观点与西方服务提供者的主位观点并列，穆斯林将他们的痛苦视为一种精神体验，并转向伊斯兰教以从战争创伤中恢复，他们倾向于将科索沃阿尔巴尼亚人的苦难世俗化，回避涉及宗教仪式和精神信仰的干预。
Religion and spirituality sustain many refugees in their process of uprooting, forced migration, and integration into the host society. And yet religion and spirituality are virtually absent in policy debates and programming for refugees and forced migrants. Researchers have also tended to neglect the role of religion and spirituality as a source of emotional and cognitive support, a lbrm of social and political expression and mobilization, and a vehicle of community building and group identity. Using Operation Provide Refuge as a case study, this article highlights the role of religion and spirituality in ameliorating the suffering of ethnic Albanians fleeing Kosova in the spring of 1999, and argues that the spiritual context of human suffering should provide the foundation for understanding and responding to the suffering of refugees. It underscores the intersection of refugees' suffering and resulting trauma with spirituality, and religion, and juxtaposes the emic perspective of the Kosovars, who conceptualized their suffering as a spiritual experience and turned to Islam to recover from war trauma, with the etic perspective of the Western service providers, who tended to secularize the suffering of the Kosovar Albanians and shied away from interventions incorporating religious ritual and spiritual beliefs.
