Understanding ‘Sanctuary’: Faith and Traditions of Asylum. By Philip Marfleet.
From the Abstract,
`Sanctuary movements emerged in North America in the 1980s as a means of providing support, advocacy and protection for refugees and other vulnerable migrants. In recent years they have grown quickly in Europe, animated largely by faith activists who invoke moral principles associated with religious traditions. This article examines ancient and modern histories of sanctuary and the implications for understanding contemporary ideas about protection, refuge and asylum.’
