Migration, the State and Faith-Based Organizations
Martinus Nijhoff (Verlag)
978-90-04-46740-8 (ISBN)
Why do churches assist people without authorized residence even when the state prohibits and punishes such conduct? What does it mean for church-state relations when the church steps into the shoes (or perhaps on the feet) of the government? And are all levels of government on the same page when it comes to migration? These are just some of the questions that this book addresses.
In a world in which migration is an omnipresent reality, these issues pervade national borders, ethnic divides, and physical barriers. These issues are shared among all nations and peoples of this world, and deserve utmost attention as geopolitical contours continue to evolve.
Dr. Dzananovic completed his undergraduate studies (B.A. German and International Studies, 2011) and legal professional degree (J.D., 2014) in the United States, and defended his LL.M. (2014) and Ph.D. (2020) degrees at Radboud University Nijmegen in the Netherlands.
