Omschrijving

This book explores how East Asian religions affect EU countries, both through Asian diaspora communities and through European conversion and exploration. East Asia (China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Vietnam) and the EU are two of the planet's most dynamic regions economically, politically, and culturally. East Asian diasporas have a long history in Europe and represent a growing part of the EU's population. Meanwhile, Europeans have long been attracted to and interested in East Asian religion and are increasingly converting or incorporating elements of East Asian religiosity into their own identities. For the first time ever, this book presents the state of the art of research in this area, with chapters on each of the EU's 27 countries and on themes such as migration, transnationalism, gender and sexuality. It covers East Asian Buddhism, East Asian Christianities, Daoism, Shinto, Cao Dai, martial arts, and looser forms of spirituality.
