"Displaced Spiritualities;" Religious conviction among refugee asylum seekers in Tokyo

这个项目的目的是回答当今社会面临的基本问题。个人宗教灵性在地球上最受挑战的人群之一：来自全球南方的难民寻求庇护者中所表现出的不同宗教的作用是什么？远离家园、社区和机构的流离失所的人如何呼唤精神资源来维持、指导和安慰？虽然我们熟悉宗教迫害可能造成的冲突，但我们的重点是宗教精神对难民所起的生产性和生产性、保护性和解放性作用。

The purpose of this project is to answer fundamental questions facing society today. What is the role of personal religious spirituality as manifest across different religions in one of the most challenged populations on earth: refugee asylum seekers from the Global South? How do displaced individuals, far away from home, community, and institution, call up spiritual resources for sustenance, guidance and solace? While we are familiar with the strife that religious persecution can cause, our focus is on the productive and generative, protective and liberating role that religious spirituality plays for refugees.
