“…Kelompok ketiga melihat NGOs Islam sebagai respons terhadap dominasi Barat atas Dunia Muslim pada pembangunan dan pengembangan (May, 2016;Benthall, 2008;Bruinessen, 2007;Cordier, 2009). Pembangunan menempatkan Zakat, Qurban, dan Infaq sebagai fitur utama (Erdal & Borchgrevink, 2017;Ozkan, 2009). Kelompok ini menggali lebih dalam sejauh mana peran kelompok agama dalam agenda pembangunan dan pengembangan internasional.…”

“…Therefore, women’s groups and organizations were also purposefully included, in order to contribute to a more gender-balanced sample, allowing us to explore women’s involvement in transnational Islamic charity explicitly. The data this article builds on was collected as part of a larger project examining the relationship between Islamic charity and development (see also Borchgrevink and Erdal, 2017; Erdal and Borchgrevink, 2017).…”

“…Other organizations and ad-hoc initiatives use the mosque to mobilize resources for initiatives in Pakistan, in Syria or Gaza, or in Oslo; reflecting diasporic ties, but also Muslim solidarities and broader humanitarian ideals. Notably, among post-migrant generation Muslims, the charitable ties to the diasporic homeland remain, but a broader humanitarian attention to other contexts is stronger (Erdal and Borchgrevink, 2017).…”

“…Such initiatives were often one-off projects, with no expectations of sustainability over time. Informal initiatives where religion has an implicit role, shed light on migrant’s engagement for development, that can be invisible from the outside, yet of great significance to the individuals involved, and where the roles of religion may also be substantial (Erdal and Borchgrevink, 2017).…”

Section: Typologizing the Organization Of Islamic Charitymentioning

“…We focus on ‘transnational Islamic charity’, because the organization thereof combines the migratory and the religious in an inherent, organic way, which we argue enables seeing the different roles which religion might play in the organization of diaspora development efforts. We understand Islamic charity as religiously framed normative ideals and social practices (Erdal and Borchgrevink, 2017). The Islamic charity we explore takes place within transnational social fields constituted by actors in—and flows between—multiple locations.…”

This article examines the different roles religion can play when migrants organize for development. We focus on organizing for development, through transnational Islamic charity, formally and informally, and where religion takes on explicit or implicit roles. By taking Muslim religious practices as starting points, different forms of development engagements are revealed, than if starting with a focus on so-called ‘faith-based organizations’ (FBOs). Whereas religion is often seen instrumentally in development studies, we find that the roles of religion are not only functional, but also substantive and relational. The article draws on qualitative data collected in Norway, Pakistan and the UK.

Introduction: Theorizing Remittances — Social Positioning and the Making of Migrant Subjectivity

Remittances as Social Practices and Agents of Change

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Remittances connect migrants to their homelands, manifest cross-border relations, and shape the transnational social field. By doing so, they have a transformative effect on both the place of origin and the destination. Their power to change individual lives trajectories, household conditions, and community infrastructure results from structural inequality in the transnational field. Thus, while generally considered an improvement, remittances also project the global divide into personal relationships and reproduce neocolonial structures. These asymmetries are negotiated through scripts which give meaning to financial and social transactions and assign a social position to the senders and recipients. More than constituting ways of being and belonging, remittances are also ways of becoming. This chapter aims to theorize remittances by exploring the forms of social positioning that accompany remittance scripts and the making of migrant subjectivity.
