Introduction -- Chapter 1: The Violent Event and the Temporal Dimensions of Diaspora -- Chapter 2: Religious Subjectivity in Spaces of the Otherwise -- Chapter 3: The Asylum Court's Radiating Effect on Religion -- Chapter 4: Fabricating Suspicious Religious Others -- Chapter 5: Daughters and Sons of '84: Dissenting Performances of Labor and Love -- Chapter 6: The Ordinary and Prophetic Voice of Postmemory Work -- Postscript.

This book examines the long-term effects of violence on the everyday cultural and religious practices of a younger generation of Ahmadis and Sikhs in Frankfurt, Germany and Toronto, Canada. Comparative in scope and the first to discuss contemporary articulations of Sikh and Ahmadiyya identities within a single frame of reference, the book assembles a significant range of empirical data gathered over ten years of ethnographic fieldwork. In its focus on precarious sites of identity formation, the volume engages with cutting-edge theories in the fields of critical diaspora studies, migration and refugee studies, religion, secularism, and politics. It presents a novel approach to the reading of Ahmadi and Sikh subjectivities in the current climate of anti-immigrant movements and suspicion against religious others. Michael Nijhawan also offers new insights into what animates emerging movements of the youth and their attempts to reclaim forms of the spiritual and political.
