Jesus the Refugee
Images of modern refugees often invoke images of the infant Christ and the historical circumstances of the holy family's flight to Egypt in the face of persecution. But rather than leaving this association at the merely symbolic level, Jesus the Refugee explores Jesus's flight through modern legal conventions on refugee status in the United States and the European Union. Would Jesus and his parents be protected from refoulement? Would they receive rights to employment and civic engagement? Would they be turned away? Is the holy family a refugee family? Jesus the Refugee argues that the holy family has a limited set of legal options for protection, but under current law is unlikely to receive any. This shocking claim stands or falls on legal details like the ability to demonstrate reasonable fear of persecution, or whether fleeing Palestine (but not the Roman Empire) affords protection for internally displaced migrants. Besides introducing the basics of modern refugee law and processes, Jesus the Refugee aims to raise ethical challenges to our current refugee system by highlighting Jesus as one of the "least of these," indicting our moral failures and challenging us to make amends.
Confronting the Global Forced Migration Crisis
The size and scope of the global forced migration crisis are unprecedented. Almost 66 million people worldwide have been forced from home by conflict. If recent trends continue, this figure could increase to between 180 and 320 million people by 2030. This global crisis already poses serious challenges to economic growth and risks to stability and national security, as well as an enormous human toll affecting tens of millions of people. These issues are on track to get worse; without significant course correction soon, the forced migration issues confronted today will seem simple decades from now. Yet, efforts to confront the crisis continue to be reactive in addressing these and other core issues. The United States should broaden the scope of its efforts beyond the tactical and reactive to see the world through a more strategic lens colored by the challenges posed—and opportunities created—by the forced migration crisis at home and abroad. CSIS convened a diverse task force in 2017 to study the global forced migration crisis. This report is a result of those findings.

Investigating the Relationship between Migration and Terrorism
ABSTRACT The 2015 migration crisis and the sudden rise of terror attacks between 2015 and 2017 resulted in the rise of xenophobic sentiments and in associating refugees and asylum seekers with terrorists. This paper investigates the relationship between migration and terrorism by treading in the path of the 2015 migration crisis and seeks to prove that refugees are not terrorists. However, the paper also sustains the hypothesis that right-wing political ideologies, right-wing extremism, ill-treatment of asylum seekers, or restrictive policies could contribute to the radicalisation of refugees in the long term. The paper gives an overview of the 2015 migration crisis and re-examines the most ...

Danmarks moskeer
Siden Danmark i 1967 fik sin forste moske, er der kommet mange flere til. Pa lidt mere end 50 ar er antallet af moskeer i Danmark steget til over 170, og danske muslimer fra Hjorring til Tonder og fra Esbjerg til Amager har indrettet faste steder at modes til bon og undervisning samt socialt og kulturelt samvAer. Men til trods for artiers offentlig debat om moskeernes rolle i det danske samfund fremstar de fortsat som noget fremmedartet for mange danskere. "Danmarks moskeer" har til formal at give overblik og indblik i den mangfoldighed blandt muslimer og moskeer, som danske muslimer heller ikke altid selv kender til. Bogen relaterer sig til sa forskellige emner som etnisk baggrund, lokalsamfund, okonomi, teologi, organisering og tilfAeldige idiosynkrasier. I et samspil med medier, politikere og lovgivning forsoger de frivillige i moskeforeningerne til stadighed at forhandle og finde deres plads her i "foreningernes land".
