Global migrations flows in the 20th century have seen the emergence of Muslim diaspora and minority communities in Europe, North America and other parts of the world. While there is a growing body of research on Muslim minorities in various regional contexts, the particular experiences of Shia Muslim minorities across the globe has only received scant attention.
This book offers new comparative perspectives of Shia minorities outside of the so-called Muslim heartland (the Middle East, North Africa, Central and South Asia). It includes contributions on Shia minority communities in Europe, North and South America, Sub-Saharan Africa and East Asia that emerged out of migration from the Middle East and South Asia in the 20th and 21st centuries in particular. As a minority within a minority, Shia Muslims face the double challenge of maintaining as Islamic as well as a particular Shia identity in terms of communal activities and practices, public perception and recognition.
