Previous issue date: 2006-12-04 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The purpose of the present work is to discuss the relations between
religion and immigration, from an intercultural perspective, through
the life history of immigrant Muslim women in the city of São Paulo,
Brazil, during their acculturation process. In this work, this concept is
based upon Intercultural Psychology formulations, as the necessary
result of a contact between two cultures, which can lead to the
adoption of integration or separation strategies. Through the study of
a minority that has been scarcely investigated in Brazil, this work
indicates the relevancy that religion can acquire in a migratory
context, since it is one of the constituent elements of the ethnic
identity / Este trabalho tem por objetivo discutir as relações entre religião e
imigração, partir de uma perspectiva intercultural, através do percurso
vivido de mulheres muçulmanas imigrantes na cidade de São Paulo,
durante seu processo de aculturação. Este conceito é compreendido
neste trabalho a partir de formulações da Psicologia Intercultural,
como o resultado inevitável de um contato entre duas culturas, que
pode resultar em adoção de estratégias de integração ou separação.
Através do estudo de uma minoria pouco estudada no Brasil,
apresenta-se a relevância que a religião pode adquirir em um contexto
migratório, uma vez que é um dos elementos constituintes da
identidade étnica

Can I bring my whole self to my workplace? : A qualitative study of immigrant Muslim women’s workplace experiences in SwedenZeidan, Rawah January 2021 (has links)
In general, immigrants face various problems as they adjust to their new surroundings and begin a new life. The educated, employed Arabic immigrant Muslim women, (EEAIMW), live between two worlds: a Swedish world at work and an Arabic world at home. In this East-West dichotomy, they keep trying to find who they are and where they belong. This thesis helps to understand the influence of the intersection of religion, ethnicity, and gender serving as the primary disadvantage due to cultural expectations, socio-political considerations, and unfavourable stereotypes and stigmatization. This disadvantage affects not only their employment and career advancement, but also the agency and performed identities of EEAIMW in their Swedish workplace, (SWP). The purpose is to give voice to 17 EEAIMW narrating their journey in re-evaluating and developing their religious, ethnic, and gender identities to adapt to the environment of their SWP. Furthermore, to challenge the stereotyping and the stigmatization that position them as the “Other,” impeding their sense of belonging. Comprehensive data concerning the phenomena was gathered through a qualitative research approach and from in-depth semi-structured interviews with the study participants, joined with a literature review on immigrants, Islam, and employed Muslim women, covering topics about identity theories and organizational behaviour. According to the study’s findings, EEAIMW create a place for themselves in their SWP through their diverse agency and identity performing adaptation strategies, and that relationships rather than the place, create a sense of belonging. It is also found that the different sociocultural contexts do not destroy EEAIMW’s religious beliefs but add value to their existence outside their religious aspect. And when representing Swedish society, they remain linked to their homelands.
