Conclusion. 330 $aThis book offers a comparative examination of Islamic welfare activities across urban areas in both Switzerland and Italy, in order to address general issues relating to the welfare engagement of Islamic organisations in Europe. Welfare Activities by New Religious Actors describes how Islamic organisations have been coordinated and structured in Geneva, Milan, Rome, and Zurich; four cities not yet analysed in the literature on Islamic welfare. It also explores the institutional opportunities and constraints are able to influence forms of social religious activities at the local and international level by bringing together two research fields that seldom speak to each other: social network analysis and political opportunity theory. This book will appeal to scholars of Sociology, Anthropology and Religious Studies dealing with the social and political inclusion of Muslims in Europe and the social activities of Islamic organisations in Western countries. 410 0$aPalgrave Politics of Identity and Citizenship Series 606 $aWelfare state 606 $aSocial structure 606 $aEquality 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aEurope?Politics and government 606 $aPolitics of the Welfare State$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33050 606 $aSocial Structure, Social Inequality$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22010 606 $aPolitical Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22170 606 $aEuropean Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911130 615 0$aWelfare state. 615 0$aSocial structure. 615 0$aEquality. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 0$aEurope?Politics and government. 615 14$aPolitics of the Welfare State. 615 24$aSocial Structure, Social Inequality. 615 24$aPolitical Sociology. 615 24$aEuropean Politics. 676 $a361.65 700 $aBanfi$b Elisa$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0321100 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300857303321 996 $aWelfare Activities by New Religious Actors$92218323 997 $aUNINA
