Beschreibung
This book analyses religious identity transformations through inter-religious relations. It aims to highlight the link between religious discourse and social cohesion, or the lack of, and ultimately to contribute to the dominant discourse on Muslim-Christian relations.

Rezension
«Wijsen has succeeded in exploring and modifying generalizing theories by using concrete examples and in doing so has made a unique contribution to the theory and method of studying interreligious relations, especially the practical science of religion. This is an interesting, readable text and one hopes that it will help generate further empirical research into ‘everyday religion’.» (Albert S. Walters, Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations 25.4, 2014)
