| book description |

This book is based on an interdisciplinary, qualitative-empirical study of Muslim, Christian, and Yazidi families. It explores the significance of religion in coping with traumatic experiences during flight and migration processes. Using the concept of VulnerAbility, the book illustrates how children and their parents generate agency through their faith and their sense of belonging to a religious community. Through individual efforts at adaptation, they meaningfully adjust their religious heritage - reflected in their images of God and religious relevance systems - to new life contexts. This enables them to develop positive visions of the future by drawing on their faith, even though religious affiliation has often been a source of social conflict, reinforced by discriminatory practices in their countries of origin, along migration routes, and within the German asylum system.
