DESCRIPTION:Glocalization of Korean Migrant Churches in West Germany\nSabr
 ina Weiß (CERES)\nAt  the present time around 30.000 Koreans live in Germ
 any. Since the  1970s\, some of them established up to 30 immigrant church
 es alone in  North-Rhine Westphalia. These immigrant churches changed over
  time into  diaspora churches\, which no longer serve as sanctuaries for t
 he first  generation of Korean migrants. One reason for processes of chang
 e was  intern diversification due to further immigration of Korean student
 s and  businessmen and intergenerational conflicts. A glocal perspective i
 s\,  considering the Korean diaspora churches in their social field\,  str
 etched out between their place of residence\, countries of origin and  the
  globally connected communities as the starting point of analysis.  The pa
 per focuses upon three specific glocal religious activities: the  exchange
  of guest preachers\, passion for foreign mission and civic  engagement\, 
 and donation behavior. It concludes by noting that  globalization facilita
 tes the growth of glocal networks of religious  actors.\nVortrag im Rahmen
