dc.description.notes | Analyses the responses incited by moments of suffering in the identities of people, and the role of tradition in such reactions. Emotions of injury and suffering are shaped while challenging cultural boundaries. Migration provokes the fragmentation of tradition and the coexistence of various possible practices. Simultaneously, tradition represents the connection with the past that facilitates social relations in the new society – in particular with migrants who share the same background. The author presents the murder of Hilda Ahmed, a twenty-year-old who refused an arranged marriage, to illustrate the exploitation of tradition within certain Muslim Arab communities. Similarly, the introduction of ‘cultural defence’ claims to the courts to legitimise tradition is discussed. The media portrayals of ethnic violence and its consequences are also addressed. | en |
