Young Sikhs in a Global World : Negotiating Traditions, Identities and Authorities

Omtale

Presenting current research on young Sikhs with multicultural and transnational life styles, this volume is the first of its kind devoted to the religion of young Sikhs in the global community, discussing their interpretation, shaping and negotiation of religious identities, traditions and authority on an individual and collective level. Qualitative research and ethnographic fieldwork from new and established academics analyses how young Sikhs try to solve social, intellectual and psychological tensions between the family, the expectations of the majority society, Punjabi culture and religious values.
