      abstract = {This monograph considers the Catholic/Christian religious  identity of young immigrants within the migratory diasporas  in Southern Europe. It details important ethnographical  work on various groups, such as the family, ethnic  communities, and peers. The author also considers the role  of institutional figures in mainstream society. These  include teachers, administrators, and social workers. This  valuable research material helps readers to better  understand the viewpoint of young people (especially the  children of immigration) in relation to various  environments which are important in their lives. The  investigation examines theoretical and practical questions  regarding the study of relations between religion and  migrations. It pays particular attention to both the youth  perspective and the effects of the current refugee crisis  on the perception of religious diversity and identity.  Coverage also looks at similarities and differences between  young migrant and their native peers. In addition, three  case studies further help illustrate the main points of the  author's argument. The book uses preliminary research  carried out in Italy. It also features interviews collected  in Portugal and Spain. Those interviewed include people  with migratory background who are permanent residents,  belong to the second generations, or are recently-arrived  asylum seekers. Overall, the author provides readers with  an interesting and innovative portrait of children of  immigrants and their relations with faith in the  post-secularized Europe: indeed, by considering both  academic debates and original empirical data, the book  offers the possibility of reframing the link between  migrations and religious identities.},
