To what country do you belong? What is your religion? The answers to these questions are becoming more complicated just as they are becoming more stressed in these times of international tension. Religion Across Borders examines new U.S. immigrant religious communities in connection with the communities they left behind. Building upon Religion and the New Immigrants -- their previous study of immigrant religious communities in Houston -- sociologists Ebaugh and Chafetz ask how new and their previously studied immigrant religious groups communicate with their homeland. They ask how remittances flow between communities, how the culture of the U.S. and sending groups affect one another, and how these relations change as the new immigrant groups become more settled. The study's unique comparative perspective allows insights into how historic, geographical, economic, and religious factors influence international ties.
Religion Across Borders examines both personal and organizational networks that exist between members in U.S. immigrant religious communities and individuals and religious institutions left behind. Building upon Religion and the New Immigrants (2000)_their previous study of immigrant religious communities in Houston_sociologists Ebaugh and Chafetz ask how religious remittances flow between home and host communities, how these interchanges affect religious practices in both settings, and how influences change over time as new immigrants become settled.
