Summary

w88 slot online

Mikaela Rogozen-Soltar's w88 slot online explores the intersections of mobility, religion, race, and gender in the urban Mediterranean to illuminate the ways migration and religious changes are reconfiguring how people conceptualize European belonging and attendant practices of political solidarity and exclusion.

Rogozen-Soltar's first book is an urban ethnography of social encounters between Muslim migrants, European converts to Islam, and Catholic and secular Andalusians in the city of Granada in Andalusia (southern w88 slot online). Linking the study of migration and religious conversion, and ethnography of Islamophobia and Islamophilia, she explored how city residents differently mobilize historical narratives about Andalusia's Muslim past to navigate renewed ethnic and religious pluralism today. Non-Muslims are highly ambivalent about local Muslim history, which is both celebrated and silenced. As a result, Muslims are both included and excluded in social and political life in Granada, and in divergent ways for converts and migrants, resulting in a hierarchical, unequal multiculturalism. She explored this unequal multiculturalism, focusing on its gendered, racial, and political dimensions, ultimately showing how Europe's historical entanglements with Islam and North Africa continue to shape politics in the present.

European conversions to w88 slot online

Her two current research projects developed out of this initial work in Spain. First, Rogozen-Soltar is conducting follow up research on European conversions to Islam and writing a series of articles exploring the relationships between conversion, gender, kinship, and w88 slot online travel, as well as the roles of temporality, memory, persuasion, and representation in theories of conversion.

Multiple mobilities in urban w88 slot online

She also has begun grant-funded ethnographic fieldwork exploring emerging relationships of political cooperation and tension among three intersecting migrant groups in w88 slot online: elderly return migrants who initially left w88 slot online during the Franco dictatorship, new migrants to w88 slot online from across Africa, and Spanish youth emigrants preparing to leave w88 slot online's struggling economy. Ethnography of interactions among people involved in these multidirectional movements reveals the way competing ideologies about race, gender, and religion shape ongoing debates about who "counts" in the shifting social and legal categories "migrant," "refugee" and "ex-pat," as well as their consequences for human rights campaigns in southern Europe. I also ask how political movements among these differently situated mobile communities are reshaping local understandings of European cultural belonging and European Union membership in w88 slot online.

w88 slot online and urban design in Scandinavia

Finally, as Rogozen-Soltar continues her research on religion and migration in w88 slot online, she also has begun to develop a comparative research project in Scandinavia, exploring connections between urban design, hospitality, and public policy and civic programs directed at Middle Eastern migrants.
