Identity and Marginality among New Australians
Religion and Ethnicity in Victoria's Slavic Baptist Community
About this book
This work deals with the identification and integration process of immigrants in Australia and the role that religion plays in this process. Viktor Zander investigates the immigrant community of Slavic Baptists in Victoria and analyzes the relationship between ethnic and religious identities as well as their social dynamics. "Identity" and "marginality" are addressed as crucial issues for Slavic immigrants and their Australian-born children. The work is based on the author's field-research in the Slavic Baptist community in Victoria.
