Více o knize

The book offers an in-depth ethnography of Tajik migrants in Dubai, exploring their efforts to reform Islamic life amidst the dynamics of Gulf migration. It highlights the interplay between migration, work, and Muslim piety, illustrating how ethical subjectivity is shaped by the various locations influencing migrants' journeys. By situating these experiences within broader transregional networks of Muslim mobility and placemaking, it investigates the motivations behind young Tajik Muslims seeking spiritual and moral advancement in Dubai's burgeoning religious economy, particularly in the fur coat industry.
